摘要:This article is an analysis of Abraham Ibn Ezra's philosophical theories in his commentary on Job and how he uses them to interpret some biblical verses and to give a rational justification of the main question of this biblical book, namely, the sufferings of the rigtheous. In this article, I analyze how Ibn Ezra uses philosophical theories of his time, such as the origin of evil, the soul-body duality, and the problem of the limitation of the human knowledge, to explain some metaphors in the biblical text.
