2022 - Leo S. Olschki

P. 365-388

  • This paper examines an important source of anti-Christian ideas and the circulation of Jewish polemics against Christianity. The main object is the Sefer ḥizzuq emunah (The Strengthening of Faith) (late 16th century), written by the Karaite scholar Yisḥ ̣aq ben Avraham Troqi (ca. 1533-1594), and its circulation during the 17th and 18th centuries. The manuscript copies (17th and 18th centuries) and the first printed edition (late 17th century) attracted the attention of philosophers and may have played a role in their critique of Christian religion, especially in the context of the so-called radical Enlightenment.
