Topic: Abraham ibn Ezra


  
 Ibn Rushd [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
Ibn Rushd concludes by discussing divine hearing and vision, and notes that scripture relates these attributes to God in the sense that he perceives things in existing things that are not apprehended by the intellect.
Ibn Rushd’s critique turns the apologetic on its head, contending that if there were two gods, there is an equal possibility of both gods working together, which would mean that both of their wills were fulfilled.
Ibn Talmart's theology affirmed that the existence and essence of God could be established through reason alone, and used that to posit an ethical legal theory that depended on a divine transcendence.

 Studies in Religion / Sciences Religieuses
Ibn Ezra shares this typical philosophic attitude when he says of the Prophets and the Writings that although helpful in explicating some of the commandments, ``the benefit is small in comparison with the effort to know the names of the Israelite cities, the accounts of the judges and the kings'' (Ibn Ezra 1985: 316 [I.3]).
Ibn Ezra and Halevi differ not only on the knowledge of the Divine but, by extension, on the very substance of Judaism.
Ibn Ezra has little to say about the sciences of this world except that they involve knowledge of God's throne and the Account of the Chariot (i.e., metaphysics).

 Abraham Ibn Ezra Outcyclopedia, the free and queer encyclopedia
Rabbi Ezra was best known for his studies in Scripture, using the fundamentals of Hebrew grammar and philology with heavy Neoplatonic and pantheistic influences.
Ezra also wrote commentaries defending the rabbinic oral traditions against the Karaites, a Jewish sect which rejected Talmud in favor of a sole reliance on the Bible.
There are a great many other poems by Ibn Ezra, some of them religious (the editor of the "Diwan" in an appended list mentions nearly 200 numbers) and some secular.

 The Parma Psalter Psalms Finn's Fine Books Facsimile Book Catalogue
The commentaries of Ibn Ezra enjoyed great popularity from the start, and are still admired, especially by advanced students, not only for their encyclopaedic character and terse and enigmatic style, but for their critical, thought-provoking spirit as well as their wit.
Abraham ibn Ezra married, according to legend, the daughter of another great poet, Judah Halevi, and had five sons.
Aged seventy-five and feeling his death approaching, he punned on a scriptural verse: 'And Abraham was seventy five years old when he departed from the "anger of God"'.

 Skyscript: The Life and Work of Abraham ibn Ezra by David McCann
Abraham gives a condensed but detailed account of the signs of the zodiac and their subdivisions; the aspects; the houses; the planets and how their natures are affected by position, phase, and aspect; and the planetary parts.
Following Aristotle and the Platonists, Abraham divided the universe into three parts: the spiritual, celestial, and sublunary worlds.
This influence can only be altered miraculously, but that can be done not just by God, but also by virtuous people (like the prophets of Israel) who have united themselves to God.

 JewishEncyclopedia.com - GRAMMAR, HEBREW:
The Aramaic of the books of Daniel and Ezra was not grammatically treated during the exclusively Jewish period of Hebrew philology.
All the Karaite grammarians evidence Saadia's influence, even those who attack him; and the same remark applies to the Karaite exegetes of the tenth and eleventh centuries who touch upon grammar in their Bible exegesis, as well as to the greatest lexicographer of the Karaites, David b.
The first Karaite to whom the title of "grammarian" ("medaḳdeḳ") is given is Abu Ya'ḳub Joseph ibn Baḥtawi, who must have been a younger contemporary of Saadia and identical with Abu Ya'ḳub Joseph ibn Nuḥ (Noah).

 Chapters On Jewish Literature - Chapter X. The Spanish-Jewish Poets (I) (By Israel Abrahams)
Several of Abraham Ibn Ezra’s hymns are instinct with the spirit of resignation.
When Jehuda Halevi sang in Hebrew of love, he echoed the “Song of Songs.” When Moses Ibn Ezra wrote penitential hymns, or Ibn Gebirol divine meditations, the Psalms were ever before them as an inspiration.
As a mathematician, as a poet, as an expounder of Scriptures, he won a high place in Jewish annals.

 Ibn Ezra
Ibn Ezra divided the universe into three "worlds:" the "upper world" of intelligibles or angels; the "intermediate world" of the celestial spheres; and the lower, sublunar "world" which was created in time.
He was essentially neoplatonic and was strongly influenced by Solomon ibn Gabirol.
He concentrated on the grammar and literal meaning of the text.

 Review of Jay F. Shachter, trans. The Commentary of Abraham ibn Ezra on the Pentateuch, volume 5: Deuteronomy
For example, it is unusual that ibn Ezra began his commentary on Deuteronomy by mentioning an interpretation that he had read (or heard) about the phrase in verse 2, “eleven days from Horev by way of Mount Seir.” But that is what ibn Ezra did.
For some reason the translator has chosen to relegate some of ibn Ezra’s comments to the footnotes.
Of his many books, most well known are his Bible commentaries.

 Centre for Jewish Studies, University of Manchester, SHLOMO SELA, THE SECULARISATION OF THE HOLOY TONGUE
Abraham Ibn Ezra (ca.1089-ca.1167) rose to fame principally because of his outstanding Hebrew biblical exegesis, but he also wrote religious and secular poetry, a series of religious-theological monographs, grammatical treatises, and very significant scientific corpus of roughly thirty treatises.
Judah Ibn Tibbon's (ca.1120-ca.1190) life epitomizes the fate of those Jews who were expelled from al-Andalus and were thus compulsorily detached from the Arabic language.
On the other hand, Abraham Bar Hiyya did not feel any embarrassment in borrowing Arabic terminology and introducing Arabic words directly into the Hebrew language by way of transliteration.

 Karaite Judaism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Though he opposed Karaism, the Rabbinic commentator Abraham Ibn Ezra regularly quoted Karaite commentators, particularly Yefet ben Ali, to the degree that a legend exists among some Karaites that Ibn Ezra was ben Ali's student.
It became common during the 11th century for a Karaite to be flogged to death if he or she did not abandon his or her beliefs.
In Israel, the Karaite Jewish leadership is directed by a group called "Universal Karaite Judaism".

One of the major figures in the history of religion is Abraham.

Radak, the 13th century Provencal commentator, records that there are those who claim that these “watchmen” are the whole house of Israel who live in the diaspora (the exile).
According to Rashi, the great 11th century French sage, they are angels who see as their mission the restoration of the city.
Abraham Ibn Ezra, the 12th century Spanish exegete, identifies these watchmen as the “mourners of Zion” who mourned Jerusalem unceasingly, both day and night.

Thus Rabbi Abraham ibn Ezra intimated to you that you will know the secret of [sending away the goat to Azazel] when you reach the verse, "And they shall no more sacrifice their sacrifices to the satyrs."
When Sammael saw that he could find no sin on the Day of Atonement among them [the children of Israel], he said to the Holy One, blessed by He: 'Master of all worlds!
Now of Rabbi Abraham ibn Ezra it may be said that "he that is of a faithful spirit conceals a matter (Proverbs 11:13) and I will not be the talebearer who reveals his secret, (Proverbs 11:13) since our Rabbis of blessed memory have already revealed it in many places.

 THE COMMENTARY OF ABRAHAM IBN EZRA ON THE PENTATEUCH VOLUME 5 DE
Ibn Ezra combined a passion for the plain sense of the verse with a reverence for the Rabbis as transmitters of reliable tradition.
Here for the first time is an English translation of ibn Ezra’s commentary on the Book of Leviticus, and the Book of Deuteronomy based on those super-commentaries, in a style which is both faithful to the original and yet enables those who wish to fathom his meaning to do so.
His most widely used works are his commentaries on the Torah, which are admired for their depth and penetration into the mysteries of the Hebrew language, the text of the Torah and the meaning of the mitzvot.

His scientific contribution may be understood as the very embodiment of ‘the rise of medieval Hebrew science’, a process in which Jewish scholars gradually adopted the holy tongue as a vehicle to express secular and scientific ideas.

 Three Approaches to Biblical Metaphor
Abraham Ibn Ezra and Maimonides applied concepts from Arabic poetics, hermeneutics and logic to define metaphor and interpret it within their philological-literary readings of Scripture.
This volume explores how the poetic technique of biblical metaphor was analyzed within the Jewish exegetical tradition that developed in Muslim Spain during the Golden Age of Hebrew poetry and was then transplanted to a Christian milieu.
David Kimhi integrated their methodologies with the midrashic creativity and sensitivity to nuance typical of his native Provence to create a new literary interpretive system that highlights the expressiveness of metaphor.

In a world where religion ruled, these medieval Jews were advocates of the belief that astrology—then, a well-respected science, more akin to modern astronomy—could be integrated within a religious framework.
Prominent among them was Rabbi Abraham Ibn Ezra, best-known in the contemporary Jewish world for his surviving biblical commentary.

While these passages were interpreted literally by most commentators (compare, however, the view of the Karaites, Abraham ibn Ezra, and Rashbam on Exodus 13:9), the Rabbis held that the general law only was expressed in the Bible, the application and elaboration of it being entirely matters of the oral law.

 Rabbi Abraham Ibn Ezra's Commentary to the Torah
This original title for Ibn Ezra's commentary on the Torah is rarely used.
Ibn Ezra's works of Biblical interpretation were based primarily on a meticulous foundation of Hebrew grammar and philology, and attention to the realia of Biblical life.
Ibn Ezra was aware of his departures from Rashi's approach; though fact he was not entirely above applying homiletical or allegorical interpretations, as in his commentaries to Ecclesiastes and Song of Songs.
