    All the known languages of the world, excepting the Hebrew only, owe their origin to human construction and art; but the Hebrew had the Lord for its author and framer, and is thence called the ‘holy tongue,’ as it proceeded from that consummate Wisdom, which is infinite; each word in itself contains the profoundest mysteries... . for which reason R. Simeon Ben Jochai says in the ‘Zohar,’ ‘Woe to him who imagines that the Law only contains the superficial structure of its narration... .’ ‘and he, who supposes it has no soul comprised within its veiled mysteries, has no portion in the world to come.’ ‘Its body only,’ he continues, ‘the ignorant enjoy, but sages, who are the gifted servants of the Sublime and Most High King, look to its soul as its superior portion, and others still more learned to the soul of that soul... .’
