An Introduction To Maimonides’ “Eight Chapters” , Dr Lawrence Kaplan
Description: Maimonides' Introduction to his Commentary on Avot, known as “The Eight Chapters” (EC), has been lauded as the best introduction to Maimonides' philosophy---perhaps the best introduction to all medieval Jewish philosophy. This paper offers an overview of EC and presents the central theme of the work, seeking to show that Maimonides' fundamental claim throughout EC and Commentary on Avot is that the path to soul’s perfection is through acquiring the moral and the rational virtues. Obedience to the commands of divine law possesses only instrumental, not intrinsic, value. Throughout EC it is subordinated to the acquisition of the virtues. Maimonides attempts to develop a virtue ethics, in the light of which the authority of law and the necessity of obedience are upheld. This thesis renders EC a unified whole and unravels its many enigmas.
