Maimonides—Essential Teachings on Jewish Faith & Ethics

Angebote / Angebote:

Moses Maimonides (1138 1204) is Jewish history's greatest exponent of a rational, philosophically based Judaism. He opened his classic code of Jewish Law, the Mishneh Torah, with the "Book of Knowledge, " providing the essential teachings of Jewish faith and ethics. His "Thirteen Principles of Faith, " included in his commentary on the Mishnah, have become cornerstones in Jewish theology. In this book, Rabbi Marc Angel provides a lucid English translation of Maimonides' key teachings on Jewish faith and ethics, as well as an informative commentary that brings his wisdom to life. Readers will confront Maimonides' views on the nature of God, providence, prophecy, free will, human nature, repentance and more. The teachings of Maimonides continue to have profound relevance to those seeking an intellectually vibrant understanding of Judaism. Although deeply rooted in Jewish sources, the writings of Maimonides provide spiritual insights for people of all backgrounds.
