Mitzvot and the Resurrection of the Dead According to Maimonides
Hello Rabbi,
I am studying the thought of the Rambam and am having difficulty understanding how he understood the meaning of the commandments, that is, how the commandments themselves confer eternity on a person? After all, he believes that reason confers, and if we say that the commandments are a means of balancing the soul that allows for empowerment and clarity in intellectual power, why do the righteous return to their bodies for a short time in the resurrection of the dead, meaning that the commandments have their own meaning?
I do not deal with these materials. In my opinion, these are baseless and often meaningless statements.
Even what you read, the righteous did not necessarily reach perfection like Moses and the patriarchs and they have some way to go.
I am trying to understand one of the tenets of Maimonides' faith, the resurrection of the dead. This has meaning in itself, as does the meaning of the body and the commandments in Maimonides' view.
Good luck. I'm eating dinner right now. Good luck to me too.
Enjoy your meal, I would appreciate a serious response.
I would be very happy to make you happy, but for that you need to do two things: A. Explain your question and not make general statements in the air. B. Read the thread and understand that I cannot do this.
