Una edición impresa de más de 500 años de la obra Guide for the Perplexed, escrita por el filósofo y sabio judío Maimónides, saldrá a subasta con un precio inicial de un millón de dólares. El volumen será rematado el martes por la casa Kedem Auction House, con sede en Jerusalén.


La pieza es considerada excepcional porque reúne partes de dos incunables —los primeros libros impresos tras la invención de la imprenta— que expertos creen fueron producidos en Rome alrededor de 1473-1475. Esto la convierte en la primera edición impresa conocida de una obra fundamental que buscó conciliar la fe judía con la filosofía aristotélica.

(Feb. 28, 2026 / JNS)  The strongest argument that President Donald Trump’s political opponents can muster to decry his decision to order American forces to join with Israel to act against Iran is that he is launching a “war of choice,” rather than seeking to avert an imminent threat to American interests or security. Even his sternest critics, such as the editorial page of The New York Times, acknowledged that the government of Iran is not merely a brutal oppressor and a constant threat to the rest of the Middle East as well as to the West, but also combines a “murderous ideology with nuclear ambitions.”
