About the Moreh Nevuchim on TorahSages
3 chelakim · 178 perakim
The Moreh Nevuchim, the Guide for the Perplexed, was written by the Rambam in Arabic in Egypt, in the form of a letter to his talmid Rabbi Yosef, for the person who is whole in Torah and mitzvot but is perplexed when the words of the Torah seem to stand against what he has learned of wisdom. It is in three parts. The first explains the words of the Tanach that seem to speak of Hashem as having a body or a form, and teaches that Hashem has no likeness at all; the second treats the existence of Hashem, the creation of the world from nothing, and nevuah; and the third opens with Maaseh Merkavah and goes on to evil in the world, hashgachah and the reasons for the mitzvot. Rabbi Shmuel ibn Tibbon put it into Hebrew, corresponding with the Rambam himself about the translation. In the generations after the Rambam the sefer was the subject of sharp dispute, and many gedolim held that it should be learned only by one who has already learned much Gemara and halacha.
TorahSages has the complete Moreh Nevuchim in the Hebrew of Rabbi Shmuel ibn Tibbon, all three parts in 178 chapters.
