	Isaac Abrabanel - LoveToKnow 1911
		ISAAC ABRABANEL, called also Abravanel, Abarbanel (1437-1508), Jewish statesman, philosopher, theologian and commentator, was born at Lisbon of an ancient family which claimed descent from the royal house of David.
		On the death of Alphonso in 1481, his counsellors and favourites were harshly treated by his successor John, and Abrabanel was compelled to flee to Spain, where he held for eight years (1484-1492) the post of a minister of state under Ferdinand and Isabella.
		He was one of the first to see that for Biblical exegesis it was necessary to reconstruct the social environment of olden times, and he skilfully applied his practical knowledge of statecraft to the elucidation of the books of Samuel and Kings.

		The favour shown by a Catholic prince to a Jew shocked the public opinion of those times, and under John II Abrabanel was accused of conspiring with the Duke of Braganza, and barely saved his life by fleeing to Castile, 1483.
		Abrabanel knew Plato and Aristotle, and is often ranked among the Jewish philosophers.
		In the field of Biblical exegesis, Abrabanel has the merit of having anticipated much of what has been advanced as new by modern investigators, and of having considered systematically not only the letter of the sacred text, but also the persons of its authors, their aim and surroundings.

		Abrabanel, then in his seventieth year, not only gave an exhaustive reply but also touched upon his personal life and even appealed to Saul Hakohen to come to Venice in order that both of them together might devote themselves to the study of the 'Guide'.

		Abrabanel's biblical commentaries are notable for their interpretation of the books of the Bible in terms of their various historical and social backgrounds and for their liberal quotations from Christian commentaries.
		Abravanel attacked the use (by Maimonides) of philosophical allegory, which he believed weakened the faith of many and thus tended to undermine the Jewish community in a precarious time.
		In his writings Abrabanel refers to himself as "of the source of Yishai [King David's Father] of Beit Lechem".

		For Abrabanel, this question was particularly poignant since he personally experienced the expulsions from both Portugal and Spain.
		Abrabanel was unaware that the book of Isaiah was probably, at least, two prophetic books combined, the first part of the book from the pre-exilic period of the kings while the second portion of the book, where these verses are found, was probably composed during the period of the return from Babylonian exile.
		Abrabanel, however, sought to contend with this question in a manner that would be relevant to his own audience.

		Of particular interest is Pietro Bembo (1470-1547) a contemporary of Judah Abrabanel, and someone who also wrote an important dialogue of love.
		According to Damiens, Abrabanel would have derived this from Ficino by way of the Alexandrian mystics, especially Pseudo-Dionysius.
		In contrast, he claims, quite plausibly, that Judah Abrabanel's source is al-Batalyawsi, perhaps as received from his father's commentary to Genesis, or from Yohanan Alemanno.

	Lech Lecha 5763 - Rabbi Menashe Bleiweiss
		For Abrabanel, these words are mainly positive and all part of the angel's ongoing argument that Hagar should go home.
		Those seem fairly pretentious words, especially given that she has experienced no prophetic reverie at all, and seems to have been in contact with a mere messenger and not the Almighty Himself.
		In truth, Abrabanel explains, any Divine communication - from the transcendent prophesies of Moshe Rabeinu to the remarkably bland voice that speaks to Hagar - ultimately comes from Hashem through His own will.
