Crescas On The Problem Of Divine Attributes (1916) is a scholarly work by Harry Austryn Wolfson that explores the philosophical and theological ideas of Hasdai Crescas, a prominent Jewish thinker of the 14th century. The book examines Crescas' views on the nature and attributes of God, including his rejection of the Aristotelian concept of God as a purely actualized being. Wolfson analyzes Crescas' arguments against the traditional Jewish and Islamic understandings of divine attributes, such as omniscience and omnipotence, and his proposal for a new approach to understanding God's nature. The book provides a detailed and nuanced analysis of Crescas' thought, as well as insights into the broader philosophical and theological debates of the medieval period. It is a valuable resource for scholars and students of Jewish philosophy, medieval philosophy, and the philosophy of religion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
