Burning Coal: Three Essays on Kabbalah & Metaphysics
What happens when mystical cosmology and modern physics confront the limits of thought?
The Burning Three Essays on Kabbalah & Metaphysics explores profound structural parallels between Jewish mystical philosophy and contemporary theoretical science—without collapsing one into the other.
This is not a claim that ancient mystics anticipated quantum mechanics. Nor is it an attempt to theologize physics. Instead, J. Z. Remi offers a disciplined philosophical inquiry into a deeper
When human thought approaches the foundations of reality, do recurring conceptual patterns emerge?
Across three tightly argued essays, this book
Constraint and observation — comparing the Kabbalistic concept of belimah with the limits of measurement in quantum mechanics.
Letters and information — exploring the generative power of Hebrew letter permutations alongside modern information theory and digital ontology.
Flame and field — drawing structural parallels between the Kabbalistic image of the flame bound to the coal and the particle–field relationship in quantum field theory.
Rather than proposing historical influence, The Burning Coal investigates philosophical resonance. It suggests that when inquiry reaches the edge of intelligibility—whether in mystical contemplation or scientific modeling—similar structural architectures begin to
Constraint.
Symbolic generativity.
Non-dual relation.
Written with clarity and intellectual restraint, this work will appeal to readers interested
Kabbalah and Jewish mysticism
Philosophy of science
Metaphysics and ontology
Theology and physics dialogue
Comparative philosophy
For those seeking depth beyond popular “quantum spirituality,” The Burning Coal offers a rigorous and contemplative exploration of how different traditions grapple with the same enduring the ground of being itself.
