Written by the 15th-century Spanish-Jewish thinker, Joseph idn Shem Tov, Kevod Elohim examines the teachings of Aristotle and his commentators and compares for the first time Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics with the Bible. Ruth Birnbaum's study makes the contents on this work available to scholars who are not familiar or fluent with mediaeval Hebrew script. It should interest scholars of Jewish mediaevalia, Aristotelian philosophy, and biblical and rabbinic studies. It makes a significant contribution to the comprehensive study of Jewish history and philosophical thought.
