description: The translator, David M. Wexelman, writes "In my translation of this holy work, I have tried not to distort the meanings and ideas or to add my own thoughts on these topics. I have tried to transfer the text to the English reader in as close to its original form as possible and practical. I have omitted sections that would cause confusion due to problems of translating difficult concepts suitable only for more advanced learners. In this way, The Jewish Concept of Reincarnation and Creation is suitable for all adult English readers who wonder and seek to know about reincarnation." Part II of this book, "The Kabbalistic Concept of Creation," was also adapted by David M. Wexelman from the writings of Rabbi Chaim Vital.
