Gideon Freudenthal presents a fresh interpretation of Moses Mendelssohn's philosophy, particularly his semiotic approach to idolatry as explored in his works "Jerusalem" and his biblical commentary. By arguing that both idolatry and enlightenment are integral to religion, Freudenthal positions Mendelssohn as a profound thinker rather than a mere rationalist. He emphasizes that Judaism uniquely balances transient ceremonies and symbols, fostering a genuine religious experience while avoiding fetishism. The book also contrasts Mendelssohn's ideas with those of his critic, Salomon Maimon, making it a significant contribution to Mendelssohn studies.
