Maimonides the Universalist

The Ethical Horizons of the Mishneh Torah

Maimonidesâ Mishneh torah presents not only a system of Jewish law, but also a system of values. This study focuses on the moral and philosophical meditations that close each volume of his code. The authors analyse these concluding passages to uncover the universalist outlook underlying Maimonidesâ halakhic thought.
