The Zohar (Hebrew זהר "Splendor, radiance") is widely considered the most important work of Kabbalah, Jewish mysticism. It is a mystical commentary on the Torah (the five books of Moses), written in medieval Aramaic and medieval Hebrew. It contains a mystical discussion of the nature of God, the origin and structure of the universe, the nature of souls, sin, redemption, good and evil, and related topics.
Zohar (זוהר) is a moshav in southern Israel in the Lachish Region, near the town of Qiryat Gat. It is part of the Lachish Regional Council. The moshav was founded in 1956 by Jewish immigrants from Algeria and Tunisia as part of the effort to settle the region.
