As someone who is not Jewish but rather is Christian, I have so much respect and admiration towards the great Rabbi Sacks. I just find him to be such an inspiring leader and so esteemed as a scholar. The world needs more people like him. Sadly our world has a lot of nonsense within it.
Not only is Maimonides today universally accepted as a halachic authority, but even the sages of his time eventually accepted his teachings as such, when Rabeinu Yonah (Jonah ben Abraham Gerundi) publicly declared that the holy book-burnings of 1242 in France were a direct result of burning Maimonides’s books several years earlier and went on to write his most famous work; Shaarei Teshuvah.
Rabbi Jonathan, thanks for sheds light about what happened to Maimonides' literary work. I enjoy watching and listening to your videos, for they are interesting and informative. ✡️

I am a muslim, and I also admire Rabbi Sacks a lot.
I admire Maimonides a lot, also admire Rab Sacks ZL as well. Thanks for sharing.

Yes. I totally understood. 👍
what an incredible mind
My Lord Rabbi lives on
Can you make a documentary about Rabbi Chatam Sófer?
Burning the books is the major sin, and crime. No book is bad. All of them is our collective mind and memory.
