eBook The Code of Maimonides (Mishneh Torah): Book 4, The Book of Women (Yale Judaica Series) (Bk.4) download

The fourth book of Maimonides' Code is entitled Sefer Nasim, 'Book of Women, ' and its subject matter corresponds to what is called today family law. In choosing this term, Maimonides followed the Mishnah.

This book should be a must-read at all high schools and colleges to show everybody just how far our society has progressed in terms of the treatment of women. I fear for the women who have to live by the laws in this book. The chapter on jealous husbands and what they can subject their wives to was frightening.

The English translation of Book 4 of Maimonides' Mishneh Torah (Code of Jewish Law) 'the Book of Women,' is another volume in the invaluable Yale Judaica Series. It is the eleventh volume (out of fourteen) of Maimonides' famous code to be translated in this series and like the other volumes it meets the highest critical standards of accuracy and completeness. The translator, Isaac Klein, has performed his task admirably and is to be commended not only for the accuracy of his translations but also for their stylistic merit. Journal of Religious Studies.

The Mishneh Torah, subtitled Sefer Yad ha-Hazaka, is a code of Jewish religious law (Halakha) authored by Maimonides (Rabbi Moshe ben Maimon). The Mishneh Torah was compiled between 1170 and 1180 CE (4930 and 4940 AM), while Maimonides was living in Egypt, and is regarded as Maimonides' magnum opus. Accordingly, later sources simply refer to the work as "Maimon", "Maimonides", or "RaMBaM", although Maimonides composed other works.
