Let My People Know

Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz: “A series of translations.”

One can say that the Torah undergoes a series of translations:

a translation into the language of the seraphim,

a translation into the language of the angels,

a translation into the language of the soul that resides in the physical body

—languages that are merely garments for the essence of Torah, which remains unchanged at all levels.

—Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz
