The central claim of this book is that Philo of Alexandria's philosophical method
served as the model for the philosophical works of Moses Maimonides and Thomas Aquinas.
Moses Maimonides and Thomas Aquinas stand as two pillars in the history of religious
philosophy. In their respective religious communities each philosopher is considered
the great master who expressed the doctrine of the religious tradition in philosophical
terms. One of the most important points established in this book is that both of these
thinkers inherited a set of standard philosophical topics (divine attributes, creation
ex nihilo, divine providence, etc.) which were first developed as philosophical/religious
questions by Philo. In effect, Philo's philosophical method shaped the history of
Western philosophy until the late seventeenth century
