Purpose Moses Maimonides' Guide of the Perplexed is pervaded by a p- manent tension regarding the possibility and extent of the knowledge of God by a created intellect, which lies at the roots of the 13th century controversy over Maimonides' writings. While Maimonides asserts that "its purpose is to give indications to a religious man for whom the validity of our Law has become 1 established in his soul and has become actual in his belief," one of its early opponents, Meshullam ben Solomon, writes referring to him: "Those who deny the proper attributes of God speak out 2 until faith has been drained out of man." He will instead claim to be "determined to know the God of my fathers and my 3 thoughts are continuously of Him". Meshullam understands that despite Maimonides' interest in preserving his readers' faith, he leads them to skepticism by denying the possibility of any positive knowledge of the essence of God.

Rezensionen
Aus den Rezensionen: "... Ausgehend von der ... 'Quaestio de attributis' ... zeichnet Rubio ... die thomasische Rezeption der maimonidischen Attributenlehre nach. Ihre Grundprämisse ist, dass Thomas ... Mitte der 1260er Jahre ... sich erneut mit Maimonides beschäftigt hat und sich in der vorliegenden Quästio die vollendetste Form der Auseinandersetzung mit Maimonides finde, die ihrerseits in anderen Werken des Aquinaten nachhalle. Diese These stützt sie durch eine recht sorgfältige und quellennahe Analyse sowohl von Thomas aIs auch ... von Malmonides' Führer der Unschlüssigen ... Das Buch bietet ... eine solide Textanalyse ..." (Görge K. Hasselhoff, in: Philosophisches Jahrbuch, 2008, Vol. 115, Issue 1, S. 195)
