| | | | Gersonides: Encyclopedia II - Jewish philosophy - The rise of Aristotelian thought Judah ha-Levi could not bar the progress of Aristotelianism among the Arabic-writing Jews.

This was the program of Jewish rationalist philosophers such as Saadia Gaon, Maimonides (who was influenced by Ibn Sina), and Gersonides (who was influenced by Ibn Roshd, aka Averroes).
