Episode: Emunot V'Deot: The First Book of Jewish Philosophy with Rabbi Daniel Korobkin:2:13 – Comprehending an Incomprehensible G-d
Description: Rabbi Saadia Gaon’s sefer Emunot V’Deot (Book of Beliefs and Opinions) innovated the genre of Jewish philosophy. Long before Rabbi Yehuda HaLevi and the Rambam, R. Saadia paved the road for viewing Jewish principles through a lens of classic Greek philosophy, the science of his time, and is justifiably where Jewish philosophy begins. Join Rabbi Daniel Korobkin as he explores this important, monumental work, tracing the differences in approach between R. Saadia and those who came after him.For the original course page please visit https://webyeshiva.org/course/emunot-vdeot-the-first-book-of-jewish-philosophy/
