A szférák zenéje és az angyalok éneke: Vita a próféták tévedhetetlenségéről a késő-középkori zsidó filozófiában

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Medieval Jewish philosophers committed to Aristotle's intellectual heritage rejected the Pythagorean idea that celestial spheres made sounds. However, a number of biblical passages suggested to the same Jewish philosophers that angels sang songs to honorGod in the heavens and since Maimonides suggested that "angels" in the Bible stand for the incorporeal intellects moving the celestial sphere, it was difficult to avoid the conclusion that the Bible accepted Pythagoras' doctrine of the celestial music.To put it simply, the question was whether Aristotle or the Bible was right. Interestingly enough, three important post-Maimonidean Jewish philosophers, Joseph Kaspi, Gersonides, and Moses Narboni argued that Aristotle was right and the Bible was wrong.Narboni presented an elaborate theory about the fallibility of prophets. Narboni's theory was received in late medieval Prague: Yomtov Lippmann Mühlhausen fiercely criticized it, whereas Menahem Shalem accepted its principles but modified
