The work points to a rich spectrum of conceptions of faith and trust--from the purely cognitive to the experiential and affective. What emerges are themes of faithfulness, loyalty, experiential certainty, and trustworthiness, expressed in devotion to a way of life that embodies these ideals. The virtue of trust expresses steadfast commitment to the truth.\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis study vividly illustrates the \"Jewish-Arab symbiosis,\" highlighting the shared spiritual language and rich, intertwined worlds of Islamic and Jewish philosophy, theology, and mysticism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Diana Lobel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Academic Studies Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/05\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.40w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798887193977\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDiana Lobel\u003c\/b\u003e, Associate Professor of Religion, Boston University, is author of \u003ci\u003eBetween Mysticism and Philosophy: Sufi Language of Religious Experience in Judah Halevi's Kuzari\u003c\/i\u003e (2000), \u003ci\u003eA Sufi -Jewish Dialogue: Philosophy and Mysticism in Ba ḥya Ibn Paq ūda's Duties of the Heart\u003c\/i\u003e (2007), \u003ci\u003eThe Quest for God and the Good\u003c\/i\u003e (2011), \u003ci\u003ePhilosophies of Happiness\u003c\/i\u003e (2017), and \u003ci\u003eMoses and Abraham Maimonides: Encountering the Divine\u003c\/i\u003e (2021).\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Academic Studies Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43950457487475,"sku":"9.79889E+12","price":136.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_0750d209-f4c2-471a-99dd-4f2adf7b76a4.jpg?v=1759406775","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/faith-and-trust-an-introduction-to-judeo-arabic-thought-9798887193977","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
