Abstract

In his well-preserved and well-transmitted treatise Mar’ōt Elōhīm (“Visions of God”), the Iberian Neoplatonic philosopher Ḥanokh al-Qosṭanṭini (fourteenth century) compares and interprets the visions of God by Biblical prophets. His cosmological reflections are one of the bridge stones between the Maimonidean philosophy of the twelfth through the fourteenth century and the later traditions of the fifteenth century, e.g., Ḥasdai Crescas.
