However, he is lauded as a second Moses by many within modern Judaism. Does he deserve that title? Maimonides's via negative created a rationale for rejecting the messiah ship claims of Jesus in Rabbinic Judaism. Therefore, this book seeks to illustrate that Maimonides, in his desire to create an anti-Christian apologetic regarding the incarnation, fashioned a Judaism that does not reflect the truths of the Tanakh (Old Testament) and developed a Judaism that was untenable for the Jewish people of the twenty-first century. Many Jewish people today are turning in a thousand and one different directions for spiritual answers, but not in the only way that will offer the way to God: Jesus of Nazareth (John 14:6). This work examines the history of Maimonides, his teachings, and an apologetic approach to bring the gospel back to the Jewish people (Rom 1:16) UR - https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=2577315 ER -
