Israel - MOSES MAIMONIDES – THE “RAMBAM” OFFICIAL MEDAL 2009 -

Israel – MOSES MAIMONIDES – THE “RAMBAM” OFFICIAL MEDAL 2009 –
Silver 999, 50mm, 2 ounce

Moses Maimonides, Rabenu Moses Ben Maimon (1135-1204), known as the “Rambam”, is recognized as the greatest Jewish scholar from Talmudic times until today. Doctor, scientist, and researcher, Maimonides was one of the leading thinkers in all realms of Judaism and one of the greatest philosophers of the Middle Ages. His monumental work, the “Mishne Torah” is a clear, systematic compilation of the code of Jewish Law and his “Guide to the Perplexed” is a major philosophical work in Jewish Law.

Born in Cordova, Spain, he fled Islamic persecutions and arrived with his family in Fez, Morocco. From there, they moved to Eretz Israel and later to Egypt. In spite of his migrations and numerous occupations, Maimonides wrote many important works, among them, interpretations of the Mishne (the Oral Law) and Talmud, philosophic and medical works, and responsa.

Maimonides was known as the “Great Eagle” because of his ability to “spread his wings” over the whole of Jewish Law, people, and Land. Likewise, the expression “From Moses to Moses, none arose as Moses” symbolizes his immense life work, both written and oral. 800 years after his death the Rambam’s impact and status remain undiminished. His public leadership and personal conduct were exemplary for all and enriched the spirituality of Jewish homes all over the world.

Obverse: On the medal face, the "Great Eagle" who "spread his wings" over the whole of Jewish Law and the Jewish people, as well as the countries of the Mediterranean basin where he lived and worked.

Reverse: The design on the common reverse represents the wisdom and holiness that emanate from the works of our Jewish Sages over the generations.
