Abstract: The relationship between Reason and Revelation has traditionally been understood as that of philosophy to religion. Medieval thought, Christian, Muslim, and Jewish, in different ways, sought to establish harmony between these two fields, as did Maimonides in particular. However, after Maimonides, and following the development of Averroism and the theory of double truth, several Jewish philosophers set out to reformulate the relationship between Reason and Revelation. This article analyzes the evolution of these relations and the impact they had on the formation of Spinozism and on its project of a radical break between philosophy and religion.
