| "Kabbalah" is a medieval European invention conceived in the Zohar, a work by the Spanish kabbalist Moses b. Shem Tov de Leon, who died in 1305, based in the superstitious, medieval world of the Dark Ages, written in the last quarter of the 13th century in Castile, Spain (The Messianic Idea in Judaism, New York: Schocken, 1971, p. 39). "Although the exact authorship of the Zoharic literature is unknown, it is evident that most of this literature was created in Castile in the late 13th and early 14th century."
