Description

Epicurus and Apikorsim describes the influence of Epicurus on Judaism. Judaism is the only national culture which has adopted the name of this Greek philosopher, using it as a term designating Jews who believe in freedom to choose their way of life, without obligation to obey religious Mitzvot' [commandments]. Today, most Jews live as Apikorsim. This book discusses the nature of Judaism as a culture. Epicurus non-religious philosophy spread during the Hellenistic period to all Mediterranean cultures, including Judaism. Its effect can be found in the Bible in the books of Kohelet/Ecclesiastes and the Book of Job.
