The Age of Rabbi Yehuda Halevi -
History Series / Part 1
Item #: 0026
Rabbi Yehudah HaLevi, "poet laureate" of the Jewish people, lived at the height of the Golden Age of Spain, but every peak is also the turning point toward decline. As tolerance for the Jews was starting to wane, Jews were forced to defend their religion, a central theme of the classic work, the Kuzari. With an analysis of this book and its philosophy, as well as a discussion of Abraham Ibn Ezra, a contemporary much influenced by Rabbi Yehudah HaLevi, Rabbi Wein captures the spirit of the lives, works, and times of these great Jewish thinkers.
