Excerpt: Moses ben-Maimon, called Maimonides and also known as Musa ibn Maymun (¿¿¿¿ ¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿) in Arabic, or Rambam (¿¿¿"¿ - Hebrew acronym for "Rabbi Moshe ben Maimon"), was a preeminent medieval Jewish philosopher and one of the greatest Torah scholars and physicians of the Middle Ages.

The dominion of the Almoravid dynasty at its greatest extent, c. 1204 CEMaimonides was born during what some scholars consider to be the end of the golden age of Jewish culture in Spain, after the first centuries of the Moorish rule. At an early age, he developed an interest in the exact sciences and philosophy. He read those Greek philosophers accessible in Arabic translations, and was deeply immersed in the sc
