Now, *I* see these passages as near-perfect overlaps. How do you think a Kabbalist would "research the nature of the world through reading dusty tomes and performing experiments"? No reason whatsoever to dismiss the idea that *some* Malkioni use gematria, numerology, random dips into scripture, etc. as experimental methods to divine the will of the Divine.
