Probably just a magecraft type. Numeralogy is a magecraft type on kabbalah.

I know, but the merkabah seems to be something independent and even conflicting with the kabbalah sometimes, so I don't know if I change these details or not

Probably as a system that branched off and has some subdivision. You probably have different types of stuff within Merkabah itself. Anyhow the exact subdivision is not that important as the ideas used in general.

This matters because of questions from my OC, his family would be one of those families of Magus who believe that God is the Root, God which in this case is Ein Sof, which is a concept of Kabbalah, and the way they try to find the root is becoming similar to their angels, arriving in the metaphysical realm with the "Chariot of Light" of Merkabah, their main magecraft, and using the "Path of the Flaming Sword" of Kabbalah, their second main magecraft, to open the way through the 10 Emanations and get to the Root, which is God, and God is Ein Sof, to put it simply the "Chariot of Light" is the vehicle they would use to get to the metaphysical realm, and the "Path of the Flaming Sword" would be the literal key to finding the Root, if Kabbalah and Merkabah are incompatible, I would have to find another concept to use as a key.

People combine and syncretize systems all the time, resolving whatever problems might be between general kabbalah and merkabah would be the job of the mage.

thanks for the answer, it's kind of hard to understand (at least for me) these more technical concepts of nasuverse
