Kabbalah is a set of esoteric teachings meant to explain the relationship between an unchanging, eternal and mysterious [[Ein Sof]] (no end) and the mortal and finite universe (his creation). Interpretations of Kabbalistic spirituality are found within [[Hasidic Judaism]], a branch of [[Orthodox Judaism]] founded in 18th-century Eastern Europe by Rabbi Israel [[Baal Shem Tov]]. Hasidism often emphasizes the [[Divine immanence|Immanent]] Divine presence and focuses on emotion, [[devekut|fervour]], and the figure of the [[Tzadik]]. This movement included an elite ideal of nullification to paradoxical Divine [[Panentheism]].<ref>{{Cite book|author1-link=David Biale|last1=Biale|first1=David|title=Hasidism: A New History|last2=Assaf|first2=David|last3=Brown|first3=Benjamin|last4=Gellman|first4=Uriel |last5=Heilman |first5=Samuel|last6=Rosman|first6=Moshe|last7=Sagiv|first7=Gadi|last8=Wodziลski|first8=Marcin|date=2020-04-14|publisher=Princeton University Press|isbn=978-0-691-20244-0 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=0j63DwAAQBAJ}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book|last=Garb|first=Jonathan|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=OrjwDwAAQBAJ|title=A History of Kabbalah: From the Early Modern Period to the Present Day|date=2020-07-23|publisher=Cambridge University Press|isbn=978-1-108-88297-2}}</ref> The [[Musar movement]] is a Jewish spiritual movement that has focused on developing character traits such as [[faith]], [[humility]], and [[Jewish theology of love|love]]. The Musar movement, first founded in the 19th century by [[Israel Salanter]] and developed in the 21st century by [[Alan Morinis]] and [[Ira F.
