The present study addresses problems of an epistemological nature
which hinge on the question of how to define Jewish thought. It
will take its start in an ancient question, that of the
relationship between Jewish culture, Greek philosophy, and then
Greco-Roman (and Christian) thought in connection with the query
into the history and genealogy of wisdom and knowledge. Our journey
into the history of the denomination 'Jewish philosophy' will
include a leg that will lead us to certain declarations of
political, moral, and scientific principles, and then on to the
birth of what is called philosophia perennis or, in Christian
circles, prisca theologia. Our subject of inquiry will thus be the
birth of the concept of Jewish philosophy, Jewish theology and
Jewish philosophy of religion. A special emphasis will fall on the
topic treated in the last part of this study: Jewish scepticism, a
theme that involves a philosophical attitude founded on dialectical
"enquiry", as the etymology of the Greek word skepsis properly
means.
