Description
Summary:The Commentary on the Book of Job is one of the most popular and widespread works by Rabbi Levi ben Gershon. In this article I present a synopsis which was discovered in a single copy among other manuscripts, and which, to my mind, was also written by Gersonides. In the article I try to prove that the synopsis is an integral part of Gersonides' writings and the continuation of his well-known commentary.
