This classic work by early-20th-century Jewish humanist and scholar
Isaac Heinemann surveys the crucial phases of Jewish thought
concerning correct conduct as codified in the commandments.
Heinemann provides his own systematic insights about the
intellectual, emotional, pedagogical, and pragmatic reasoning
advanced by the major Jewish thinkers. This book, translated here
for the first time, covers Jewish thinkers from the Bible, rabbis
and Hellenistic philosophers through the Middle Ages and the
Renaissance, including Saadiah, Halevi, Maimonides, Albo, and many
others. Heinemann addresses such questions as: What were the
Biblical, rabbinic, medieval, and modern rationales offered for the
commandments in the course of Jewish thought?
