Sorne Points of Contact between the Latin Version of the Book of the Astronomic Tables and the Hebrew Work of Abraham ibn Ezra

Abstract

This article suggests a complementary methodology to a previous article (Sh. Sela, 1996). We intend to demonstrate that Abraham ibn Ezra wrote the Book of the Astronomic Tables in four different versions (2 Hebrew and 2 Latin). Departing from the Latin text, our goal is to find and detect points of intersection with the Hebrew work of Abraham ibn Ezra, in its exegetical-theological-philosophical components as well as in the Scientific Corpus.
