It's the Jewish version. Sort of. It's actually not intended for the masses. You're only supposed to study Kaballah after you've attained a particular level of maturity and have deeply studied both the Torah and the Talmud.
It's the end-all and be-all of Jewish Philosophical thought.
Apparently, if you don't have the appropriate background, the intricacies of studying Kaballah are lost to you ... without the context, it's similar to attempting to read War and Peace in Swahili, a language which you know not one word of, and which doesn't have the necessarily expressive vocabulary to tell the story anyway.
