What is Jewish Biblical Exegesis: Understanding Pardes about?
1) Judaism studies the biblical scriptures using a method called Pardes, which represents four levels of interpretation: Pshat, Remez, Drash, and Sod. 2) Each level deepens the meaning, going from the literal to the secret/mystical. 3) The four rivers that flow out of Eden - Pishon, Gihon, Hiddekel, and Euphrates - symbolize the four stages of the spiritual journey from Eden to the heavenly Jerusalem.
