Maimonides's Guide for the Perplexed on-line

I was reading this morning through a number of articles on Wikipedia, one of my favorite on-line resources for general knowledge. In response to a student’s query I started on an article on “kabbalah” and ended up (two hours later!) reading through a very useful article on Maimonides’s Guide for the Perplexed. It contained a link to a 1904 publication that used the 1881 English translation of M. Friedlander. You can simply download the work in PDF format by clicking here. A nice resource to have.

When God starts creating 36-hour days, I fully intend to sit down and read through the whole Guide. Right after I read all of Aristotle, Augustine, Dionysius, Ambrose, Pope St Gregory…….
