Maimonides methodically and artfully crafts a list of 613 commandments in a work that serves as a prolegemenon to the Mishneh Torah, his monumental code of law. This book explores the surprising way Maimonides put this tradition to use and his possible rationale for using such a tradition. It also explores many of the philosophical and ethical ideas animating the composition of such a list. In the book's second half, Friedberg examines the manner by which Maimonides formulated positive commandments in the Mishneh Torah, leading him to suggest new dimensions in Maimonides' legal theory. 410 0$aHolocaust (Boston, Mass.) 606 $aJewish philosophy 606 $aPhilosophy, Medieval 606 $aJudaism 610 $aTheology & Religion 610 $aRabbinic texts 610 $aMaimonides 610 $aJewish philosophy 610 $aMishneh Torah 610 $aJewish law 615 0$aJewish philosophy. 615 0$aPhilosophy, Medieval. 615 0$aJudaism. 676 $a296.1 700 $aFriedberg$b Albert D$0901000 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996328042303316 996 $aCrafting the 613 commandments$92013951 997 $aUNISA
