Abstract
On some of the end-leaves of a Bible manuscript someone has copied out a passage from theTheology of Aristotlein Hebrew translation. The passage deals with the immunity of person of intellect from magical manipulation. No other copies of this passage in Hebrew are known to exist. The dependence of the translator upon the so-called “long version” of theTheology, specifically the copy in St Petersburg, is demonstrated, and it is suggested that the translator may be Shem Tov ibn Falaquera. The passage differs significantly from other versions of theTheology, and from Plotinus, in placing intellectual achievement ahead of ethical perfection in the scale of values.
