"This broad-ranging study, the first full-length investigation of conceptions of faith and trust in the Judeo-Arabic tradition, explores a family of related concepts-faith (iman, emunah), conviction (i'tiqaad), and trust/reliance (tawakkul/ittikal)-in Saadya, Baḥya, Halevi, Maimonides, Abraham Maimonides, and the Egyptian pietist circle of Abraham he-Ḥasid. The work points to a rich spectrum of conceptions of faith and trust-from the purely cognitive to the experiential and affective. What emerges are themes of faithfulness, loyalty, experiential certainty, and trustworthiness, expressed in devotion to a way of life that embodies these ideals. The virtue of trust expresses steadfast commitment to the truth"--

Modello della fede cristiana, secondo l’insegnamento di san Paolo, è Abramo, la cui fede consiste nell’obbedire a Dio e nell’abbandonarsi a Lui con fiducia.Tutti e quattro i Vangeli mostrano chiaramente che Gesù stesso ha camminato «sulle orme della fede del nostro padre Abramo». La lettera agli Ebrei presenta Gesù come il sommo sacerdote della nuova alleanza e il leader della fede, quella dei cristiani, che si pone sul prolungamento della fede d’Israele. La fede cristiana è fede in Dio e anche fede in Gesù, il Figlio di Dio che compie le promesse fatte a Israele. Alla dimensione interpersonale ed esistenziale della fede è sottesa quella veritativa, sulla quale insistono gli ultimi scritti del Nuovo Testamento.

The essays in this volume address the conundrum of how Jewish believers in the divine character of the Sinaitic revelation confront the essential questions raised by academic biblical studies. The first part is an anthology of rabbinic sources, from the medieval period to the present, treating questions that reflect a critical awareness of the Bible. The second part is a series of twenty-one essays by contemporary rabbis and scholars on how they combine their religious beliefs with their critical approach to the Bible.
