  More than any other topic, prophecy represents the point at which the Divine meets the human, the Absolute meets the relative. This book offers a study of prophecy in the thought of seven of the leading medieval Jewish philosophers: R Saadiah Gaon, R Judah Halevi, Maimonides, Gersonides, R Hasdai Crescas, R Joseph Albo, and Baruch Spinoza.
