In this series, we delve into the lesser known but nonetheless highly remarkable 15th Century work by Rabbi Joseph Albo.  In the Sefer Ha-Ikkarim, or Book of Principles, Albo seeks to determine and illustrate what he sees as the three underlying principles by which Judaism differs from other religions.  An eclectic thinker, Albo provides what is considered to be one of the last great systems of medieval Jewish philosophy.

This week we look at the challenges of defining underlying principles.
