The guide for the perplexed

Om denne boken

"The guide for the perplexed" by Moses Maimonides is a work of Jewish theology written between 1185 and 1190. Originally composed in Judeo-Arabic, it attempts to reconcile Aristotelian philosophy with Jewish theology by finding rational explanations for biblical events and passages. Maimonides addresses educated believers troubled by apparent contradictions between philosophical knowledge and religious texts, particularly focusing on biblical anthropomorphism and the nature of God's incorporeality through careful analysis of Hebrew terms and prophetic figures.
