In this volume, keyed to Lenn E. Goodman and Phillip I. Lieberman’s new translation and commentary of Maimonides’ Guide to the Perplexed, philosopher Lenn E. Goodman shares a lifetimes insights into the meaning of Maimonides’ classic work that aims to help religiously committed readers navigate the challenges that reason and the sciences seem often to pose to religion in general and Judaism in particular. Following Maimonides' life, learning, and thinking, this guide to the Guide explores Maimonides' understanding of creation, revelation and tradition, religious experience and practice, biblical law and ritual, the problem of evil, the purposes of the Torah's commandments, and even the meaning of the idea of angels—ever true to his caution, chat pearls can be found in the seabed, but one should not venture there before learning to swim. |
