Joseph Albo on Free Choice discovers unsuspected philosophical
originality in the interpretations of biblical narrative found in
Joseph Albo's Book of Principles, one of the most popular Hebrew
works in the corpus of medieval Jewish philosophy. Several of
Albo's exegetical analyses focus on free choice, which emerges as a
conceptual scheme throughout his work. An exploration of Albo's
innovative homiletical interpretations of the binding of Isaac, the
hardening of Pharaoh's heart, the Book of Job, and God's choice of
Israel, reveals his view of free choice which was significant
during a historical period of religious coercion. Albo's sole
surviving responsum dealing with the case of the qatlanit further
demonstrates his philosophical position. In this new book, Shira
Weiss shows that in the medieval era in which Albo lived, free
choice was an important topic, subject to vehement debate that has
continued to be contested in modern philosophy.
