Nathan Yes, Daya, God be praised! But why at last? Had I the wish to hasten my return 65 Could I have done so? ~for Jerusalem Is full two hundred miles from Babylon For one who is forced, as I have been, to turn Often to right and left upon the way; And gathering in old debts is not a task That's soon despatched.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, set in the tumultuous Middle Ages, is an exploration of the tangled relationship between faith and reason. The author presents a complex world of religious strife through the lens of Nathan, a wise and wealthy Jewish merchant, who, despite facing prejudice and oppression, advocates for tolerance and understanding. Through Nathan's interactions with a young Christian knight, a Muslim sultan, and his own daughter, who has been influenced by an encounter with an angelic figure, the book delves into profound questions of religious identity, humanity, and the search for divine truth. The author expertly weaves together themes of love, loss, and the struggle for reconciliation and acceptance, offering a timeless reflection on the human condition.
