The Philosophical Quest: Of Philosophy, Ethics, Law and Halakhah

Rabbi Dr. J. David Bleich’s expertise spans the fields of philosophy, ethics, law and Halakhah, and much of his prolific scholarly writing focuses upon the interface of these disciplines. The present volume includes discussions of the axiological principles of faith that define the essence of Judaism, analyses of particular principles such as the nature of the Deity, providence, prophecy and revelation.

Written from the perspective of an eminent authority on Jewish law trained in academic philosophy and noted for presenting complex subjects with rare clarity and accuracy, this volume constitutes a unique contribution to Jewish scholarship and serves as an invaluable sourcebook for student and scholar alike.
