Abstract
In order to understand the relationship between philosophy and religion, one of the major questions that must be explored is the relation between natural law and prophetic law. One of the main problems with modern research on this topic in the field of Jewish studies is that debate is relegated to the interpretation of only a few thinkers whose ideas are presumed to represent Judaism. The aim of this article is to begin remedying this issue by analyzing the relation between the Law of Moses and natural law as presented by four Jewish Averroists: Rabbis Isaac Albalag, Isaac Pulgar, Josef Ibn Kaspi, and Levi ben Abraham.
为了理解哲学与宗教之间的关系,必须探讨的主要问题之一是自然规律与预言规律之间的关系。犹太研究领域对这一主题的现代研究的主要问题之一是,辩论只限于少数思想家的解释,他们的思想被认为代表了犹太教。本文的目的是通过分析四位犹太Averroist(拉比Isaac Albalag、Isaac Pulgar、Josef Ibn Kaspi和Levi ben Abraham)提出的摩西律法与自然法之间的关系,开始纠正这一问题。
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Religion is one of the publications by which the Divinity School of The University of Chicago seeks to promote critical, hermeneutical, historical, and constructive inquiry into religion. While expecting articles to advance scholarship in their respective fields in a lucid, cogent, and fresh way, the Journal is especially interested in areas of research with a broad range of implications for scholars of religion, or cross-disciplinary relevance. The Editors welcome submissions in theology, religious ethics, and philosophy of religion, as well as articles that approach the role of religion in culture and society from a historical, sociological, psychological, linguistic, or artistic standpoint.
