The Shiur Komah ("measure of the stature") is an ancient esoteric text ascribing colossal dimensions and mysterious names to the limbs of the divine "body." Seemingly deeply anthropomorphic, it embarrassed some philosophers, including Maimonides, while fascinating mystics. It attests to a contemplative tradition seeking to express God's immeasurable greatness through paradoxical language.
