迷途指津

简介

Maimonides wrote the Guide in Arabic, in Hebrew script, and completed it around 1190 in Fustat. It is framed as a letter to his student Joseph ben Judah and deliberately written in a scattered, allusive way, as the introduction explains. Part I interprets biblical expressions for God and develops negative theology; Part II deals with the question whether the world is eternal or created and with prophecy; Part III treats the vision of Ezekiel’s chariot, providence, evil and the reasons for the commandments. Samuel ibn Tibbon’s Hebrew translation appeared in 1204; a Latin version was read by Thomas Aquinas. In the 1230s opponents had copies burned in Montpellier.
