I would like to comment on this:

There are many misconceptions in regard to Kabbalah. The word in Hebrew means “to receive knowledge”. The Kabbalah is the most center-most part of the 72 layers of understanding in the Torah.

There are no “oaths of the Kabbalistic societies” because there are no “Kabbalistic societies”.

Kabbalah is the teachings of the more mystical and esoteric areas of Judaism and it is something every Torah observant Jew, and every Rabbi of the Orthodox sects studies and “immerses in”. It teaches us about the our relationship HaShem (G-D), to the world of Creation and HaShems attributes. There is nothing grim about it. If anything, it is incredibly joyous and affirming, and wholly about the Divinity of HaShem.

What you may be referring to is a rite performed called the “Pulsa Denura” (Lashes of Fire) which calls upon the Angels of Destruction to block the forgiveness of the sins of someone of extreme evil, or one who brings harm among the Jewish people, so that all the curses of the 10 plagues falls upon him. This requires a judgement, and if that judgement is wrongly given, then those who take part in it are punished, rather than the subject of the ritual.

It was performed upon Ariel Sharon for the sin of removing the Jews from Gush Katif, and upon Rabin- who worked to bring the Muslims into being a part of Israel.

However, this is not Kabbalah. Although, a Kabbalist would know it exists. It is among the ancient Hebrew magical manuals of antiquity, such as Sefer ha-Razim and the Harba de-Moshe.

Freemasonry, Islam, Bnai ‘Brith, Knights of Malta.

Kabballa is just another word for gnosticism in most respects, although it is tough for a Jew to look at it that way, because it has slithered in and replaced Mosaic Torah to a great extent.

I do not expect you to even accept that either; we’ve all acquired our walls around our life-long indoctrinations :o)
