Qabablistic readings of the Bible

In the beginning of the Gospel of John, there's a ridiculously Qabalistic passage:
"In the beginning was the word [Chokmah] and the word was with God [Keter] and the word was God. The same was with God in the beginning.
Through him all things were made; nothing that was made has been made without him. In him was life [Binah], and that life was the light of men."
This is a description of how human consciousness was created, the highest three sefirot emanating in turn from the Godhead.

John 14:6 "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one can come to the father except through me." Jesus is associated mostly with Tifaret (while GodtheFather is associated with Keter and GodtheHolySpirit with Malkut). Man is Yesod, so when Jesus says no one can come to the father except through him, he means that for one to ascend from Yesod to Keter, they must pass through Tifaret.
