Kabbalah & Mysticism Quiz
TEST YOUR KNOWLEDGE: Kabbalah & Mysticism Quiz (MyJewishLearning.com). But I should mention that the "correct" answers don't always look correct to me. One question asks what was "the earliest disseminated text of Kabbalistic thought," but does not list Sefer Yetsirah, even though it appears in a later question. And the correct answer to the question about Merkavah Mysticism is none of the above. The object given as the correct answer is very important in Merkavah Mysticism (on which here, here, and many links, plus here!), but God is never conceived of as that object.
