Cabala of Saboth

An occult book. We know little of its contents, but Cabala is an alternate spelling of Kabbalah, "a medieval and modern system of Jewish theosophy, mysticism, and thaumaturgy marked by belief in creation through emanation and a cipher method of interpreting Scripture." [Kabbalah, Meriam Webster] Saboth might be a variant spelling of Sabaoth or TZ'VAOT, which means "armies" or "hosts," and is sometimes used in the Jewish names for God, such as YHWH-Tsvaot and Adonai-Tsvaot.

Simon Maglore had a copy of the almost priceless Cabala of Saboth (Greek translation, circa 1686). [RB Mannikin]

Strange's father initiated him into the mysteries and arcana to be found amid the shuddery speculations of such blasphemies as the Cabala of Saboth. [RB Tomb (online text)]
