Were The Prophets Kabbalists?

laitman_741.02Question: Can it be said that the prophets were Kabbalists? And if yes, then why did almost all of the prophets complain?

Answer: Prophecy is one of the levels of attainment of the Creator. The book of Ramchal, a great Kabbalist of the 17th century, called The Path of the Creator, describes spiritual levels of attainment, one of which is called “the level of prophecy.”

It is one of the levels Kabbalists attain, and you too can achieve this state. A person on this level is already above the limitations of time, space, and movement, and that is why he is called a prophet. In other words, he sees what will be ahead and what was left behind, he sees this outside of time and even outside of actions.

Question: Then why did the prophets complain?

Answer: It is because they felt regret for what was happening to humanity, how people did not understand that they were only harming themselves. It is very sad to look upon this, like looking at a young child, you understand that he brings unhappiness onto himself.
