A ROUND EARTH
The major book of Kabbalah, the Zohar, revealed that the earth was spherical, like a round ball, at a time when science was certain the world was flat.

SEVEN CONTINENTS
In the time of Columbus, scientists thought only two continents existed. 20 centuries earlier the Zohar said:

"There exists seven geographical continents. But it is not yet known to those who mark out geographical boundaries". - THE ZOHAR

TIMELESSNESS
Second century Kabbalists said true reality was a realm without time, space, and motion. And time was relative to the observer and to other forces in the universe. Albert Einstein and modern day physics confirmed these ancient insights.

THE DEATH OF DEATH
Sixteenth-century Kabbalists said that the secrets of immortality would become known near the year 2000. In 1998, scientists made headlines in The New York Times when they created human cells that were immortal, an idea considered taboo by the science community just a few short years ago.

HEART DISEASE
2000 years before medical science discovered the relationship between heart disease, the liver and cholesterol, the Zohar stated:

"From the liver emerges the bile, from which come bitter drops to kill human beings... Bile overcomes the arteries of the heart and all the arteries in the limbs of the body..."

Medical-science now tells us that bile's primary component is cholesterol.

GOOD FATS, BAD FATS
Only recently did science identify two kinds of cholesterol and fat, known as the good fats and the bad fats. The Zohar revealed this medical truth 2000 years earlier:

"In the body there are pure and impure fatty parts, clean blood without waste matter and blood contaminated with waste matter..." - THE ZOHAR
