Abstract

Rabbi Moses of Narbonne (frequently referred to as Moses Narboni or the Narboni) was a Jewish Averroist philosopher. He was most known for his radical naturalist position, especially his belief in the eternity of the world and his metaphorical interpretations of various Biblical passages. The bulk of his works are commentaries on philosophical writings of other philosophers. His most important philosophical book was his commentary on Maimonides’ Guide of the Perplexed.
