arcanos de las Escrituras

Spanish to English Other Religion
The footnote in its entirety reads:
Como comentamos en el trazo anterior, sobre Buber y Benjamin, dicha ciudad, que se encuentra en la Galilea, unos 40 años después de la expulsión de los judíos de España (1492), surgió un importantísimo círculo cabalístico en torno a la figura de Yitsjak Luria (ISaac in English). El exilio fue vivido por estos místicos estudiosos de los arcanos de las Escrituras como una catástrofe capaz de anunciar el advenimiento de la era mesiánica.

arcana of the scriptures

There's an exact equivalent in English, so I think you should use it.

arcane mysteries of the Scriptures

Add the word mysteries, as reflected in the first weblink.

Example sentence:

Greek philosophy as the truth of the arcane mysteries of Scripture, is falsified.

The mythic structure of the provided many colorful answers to that question: demons and dybbuks, golems and ghosts are all the results of misspent life energy.

the mysteries of the Scriptures

"These mystics, who studied the mysteries of the Scriptures, saw the exile as a catastrophe that could herald the coming of the Messianic era"

I did some further research and found that in Kabbalah, Luria's school of mysticism, there are two dimensions to the Torah, "nistar" (hidden truth) and "nigle" (revealed truth). I would therefore amend my answer to include "hidden"; e.g. "hidden knowledge/mysteries/truth/things of the Scriptures". See:
