The Jews believed in the existence of an inner dimension of reality, pnimiyut, which was itself not observable but which was the essence of all that was observable. Everything that exists is an outward revelation of this inner reality. The source of this inner reality is the Divine, and every aspect of creation is an outward revelation of G-d, whether it be nature, Torah or man himself. (For example, the physical body reflects the number of positive (248) and negative (365) commandments of the Torah. Modern discoveries in quantam mechanics reflect a physical world working on an atomic level in ways that are similar to the metaphysical world painted for us by Chazal and the Kabalists.)
