Rather than trying to explain concepts and practices, the nine essays survey the wide-ranging scope of the occult arts and their importance during ancient times. They look at the sets of rules that defined legitimate divine communication in order to delineate its boundaries, and at the values and mechanisms ascribed to its various forms within the cultural system. The focus is on the Platonists, Rabbis, Church fathers, and Gnostics who inherited and interpreted such foundation literature as Homer, Hesiod, Greek tragedy, and the Bible. No index.

In Moses among the Idols: Mediators of the Divine in the Ancient Near East, Balogh simultaneously redefines one of the greatest figures in the history of religion and challenges the historically popular understanding of ancient Mesopotamian idols as the idle objects of antiquated faiths. Drawing on interdisciplinary research and methods of comparison, Balogh not only offers new insight into the lives of idols as active mediators between humanity and divinity, she also makes the case that when it comes to understanding the figure of Moses, Mesopotamian idols are the best analogy that the ancient Near East provides. This new understanding of Moses, idols, and the interplay between the two on the stage of history and within the biblical text has been made possible only with the recent publication of pertinent texts from ancient Mesopotamia. Drawing from the fields of Assyriology, biblical studies, comparative religion, and archaeology, Balogh identifies a problem with Moses’s status, and offers an unexpected solution to that problem. Moses among the Idols centers on the question: What is it that transforms Moses from an inadequate representative of Yahweh who is “uncircumcised of lips” to “god to Pharaoh” (Exodus 6:28-7:1)? In this moment, Moses undergoes a status change best understood through comparison with the induction ritual for ancient Mesopotamian idols as described in the texts of the Mīs Pȋ, “Washing” or “Purification of the Mouth.” This solution to the problem of Moses’s status explains not only his status change, but also why Moses radiates light after speaking with YHWH (Exod 34:29-35), and his peculiar relationship with YHWH and people of Israel. The comparative, interdisciplinary perspective provided by Balogh allows one to read these and other millennia-old interpretive issues anew, and to do so in a way that underscores the contribution of in-depth comparison to our understanding of ancient civilizations, texts, and intellectual frameworks.

The thoughts of Ibn Arab could actually be compared with the thought of Plotinus on the basis of many similarities between them; but there are also some differences between Plotinus the mystic and Ibn Arab the Sufi. The mysticism to Plotinus is a mental mysticism and the mediators, that mediate between God and the man, are the mental mediators as well, while the mysticism to Ibn Arab does not depend on the mind completely and the mediators are also not mental mediators, as they are not based on the theory of (Emanation) or the overflowing of all organisms gradually through the first one. So the universe that does come up from the one to Plotinus, that one is equal to the divinity, which is a level of the absolute utopian world, named by Ibn Arab the isthmus of the isthmuses, which is also in its turn a mediator between the divine and world. The overflowing of the universe from the divinity and cosmic symptoms is not by the overflowing or through the emanation to Ibn Arab, but through a series of transfigurations. We should not forget that the transfiguration to Ibn Arab is an alternative word for the overflowing or emanation to Plotinus.
