Hello
We would like to introduce a new book published by the Hebrew university Magnes

Gersonides' Interpretation of the Stories of
the Creation of Man and the Garden of Eden
By Sara 
Klein-Braslavy

The book deals with one of the most interesting biblical exegeses of Gersonides 
(Provence, 1288--1344): the interpretation of the stories of the creation of 
man and the Garden of Eden. It explains their philosophical meaning; the 
methods used in them; their dependence on Averroes's commentaries on Aristotle 
and their relationships with Gersonides's other writings, especially his 
commentary on Song of Songs and the Wars of the Lord.

Language: Hebrew
Price: $ 42.00
