耶路撒冷，或论宗教权力与犹太教

简介

Mendelssohn wrote “Jerusalem” in German in 1783, after an anonymous pamphlet had asked how he could remain a Jew while calling for freedom of conscience. The first part distinguishes state and church: the state may compel actions where necessary, a religious community may only teach and persuade and has no right to coercion or excommunication. The second part argues that Judaism has no revealed dogmas, only a revealed law for conduct; its eternal truths are accessible to reason. Kant wrote to Mendelssohn praising the book.
