Hmm. Isn't the idea of salvation through Christ (which Cohenwrites and sings about) completely absent in Jewish Dogma? I'm not suggesting he personally subscribed to the idea, just that he borrowed from both dogmas in his writing (not to mention Eastern dogma increasingly in his later years). I'm not familiar enough with Jewish scripture to tease out the overlap with the Biblical references.
I've been meaning to read the Jewish holy books for years, as well as the Quran. I can never seem to find the time, and they arent exactly page-turners :) As an aside, in the song, when he sings about the Holy Ghost moving within them, I take this as the classic triumvirate of God-Jesus-holy Ghost, aka the Holy Trinity from the Bible. Does Jewish Dogma recognize that, or is that Christian-specific?
