This framework is one piece of the whole; its full page is in preparation. The line above states its present scope.
The proposed model
Qabballah
The discipline commonly transliterated "Kabbalah" (קבלה), read through its triconsonantal root Q+B+L, joins QiBeL (קִבֵּל) "to get; to receive" with haQBaLa (הַקְבָּלָה) "parallel; comparison": to receive new knowledge, we align and compare it with something we are already familiar with. This platform intends, dictionary-like, a database of various parallel phenomena
Sources & apparatus
Q+B+L root: QiBeL (קִבֵּל) "to receive" ↔ haQBaLa (הַקְבָּלָה) "parallel; comparison"
The mystical reading
The reading beneath the claim.
Qabbalah itself is re-read via its root: Q+B+L binds QiBeL (קִבֵּל, "to get; to receive") to haQBaLa (הַקְבָּלָה, "parallel; comparison") — to receive new knowledge, we align and compare it with the familiar Preserve the QABBALLAH spelling and both Hebrew terms exactly
