Since Isaac Luria wrote almost nothing, it was his disciple Hayim Vital (1542–1620) who recorded and organized his teaching, notably in Etz Chayim ("Tree of Life"). This commitment to writing shaped the spread of Lurianic Kabbalah throughout the Jewish world. The versions, recensions, and controversies surrounding these manuscripts illustrate the stakes of transmitting an esoteric oral tradition.
