Moshe

MOSHE, symbolically represented as Moses, is closely bound with profound religious and philosophical concepts. Moses embodies the transition between an ancient conception of the Supreme Being in Christian Revelation and the advent of a new axiom proposed by Descartes. While Moses is associated with the foundational pillars of a new religion, his role involves erasing the past to ensure the life and continuity of this new faith, as suggested by the Kabalah's knowledge. This duality highlights the symbolic importance of Moses as a figure navigating the intersection of old and new religious and intellectual paradigms, illustrating the eternal cycle of knowledge and belief systems.
