Maps of God - the research platform of the Ilanot Project - invites you to explore ilanot (“trees”), a genre of large-format kabbalistic diagrams typically inscribed on parchment sheets and scrolls. These artifacts interweave images and texts to map the divine realm.
Maps of God lets you search the collection, compare ilanot side by side, trace shared images and concepts, and explore digital editions linking high-resolution images to transcriptions, translations, sources, and scholarly commentary.
