Aryeh Löb b. Saul, anything on him? and is it Saul wahl?


I am not sure how to add this information to the page but of interest maybe a statement by Gershom Sholem that "after thoroughly examining both Eibeschutz's own Kabbalistic writings and all the polemical works that they engendered I have been forced to conclude that he was indeed a Sabbatian, as both Jacob Emden and, in a later age, Heinrich Graetz insisted." Gershom Sholem, THE HOLINESS OF SIN, Commentary 42 (January 1971).

Not directly relevant to this article. Add to article about Sholem.--Redaktor 21:48, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Guide of the Perplexed

In the JE it only states "He was also opposed to philosophy, and maintained that the "Moreh" could not have been written by Maimonides ("Miṭpaḥat Sefarim")." There is very little context here. Did he state based on historical evidence he does not believe the Morah to of been written by Maimonides or was that just his personal disgust? He was very learned in all of Maimonides books including his personal letters. So I couldn't make gutful guess. 124.170.107.221 13:48, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
