Excerpt from The Guide of the Perplexed of Maimonides, Vol. 1
In compliance with a desire repeatedly expressed by the Commitwe of the Hebrew Literature Society, I have undertaken to translate Maimonides' Dalaldt Hams, better known by the Hebrew title Marcia Nebhuchim, and I offer the first instalment of my labours in the present volume. This contains - (l) A short Life of Maimonides, in which special attention is given to his alleged apostasy. (2) An analysis of the whole of the Moreh Nebhuchim. (a) A translation of the First Part of this work from the Arabic, with explanatory and critical notes.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricacies of faith, reason, and the complexities of navigating a world where religious beliefs often clash with philosophical thought. The author, a prominent Jewish scholar living in a turbulent era marked by religious persecution, grapples with these themes through a series of commentaries on Jewish law, philosophical treatises, and personal letters. The author's work is situated within the broader intellectual landscape of the 12th and 13th centuries, a time of intellectual ferment and cultural exchange. The book explores the role of faith in a world of diverse belief systems, examining the challenges of remaining true to one's religion in the face of persecution. It examines the delicate balance between the literal interpretation of scriptures and the philosophical reasoning of ancient thinkers. The author's work is a testament to his profound understanding of Jewish law and his desire to reconcile it with the evolving philosophical ideas of his time. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the inner life of a scholar grappling with deep questions about faith, reason, and the human condition, providing valuable insights into the intellectual and religious struggles of a bygone era.
