Extrait : Aaron ben Joseph de Constantinople, dit Harofè (« le médecin ») ou Harishon (« le premier », afin de le distinguer de son contemporain plus conservateur, Aaron ben Eliya de Nicomédie) est un Sage karaïte du siècle (Sulchat, Crimée, 1260 - Constantinople, 1320). Enseignant, philosophe, grammairien et poète liturgique, il est compté parmi les maîtres éminents de ce mouvement juif basé sur la seule Bible hébraïque et adversaire du judaïsme rabbinique traditionnel. Il a activement participé à sa régénération en intégrant certains éléments du judaïsme rabbinique. À l'âge de dix-neuf ans seulement, il a déjà atteint une telle maîtrise de la théologie de son temps, qu'il est élu comme dirigeant spirituel de la communauté karaïte de sa ville natale. C'est en cette qualité qu'il engage une disputations publique avec des rabbins et érudits rabbanites au sujet de la détermination correcte du moment de la néoménie. Il voyage ensuite dans de nombreux pays, étudiant avec zèle les travaux de Rachi, Abraham ibn Ezra, Moïse Maïmonide, et Moïse Nahmanide , dont il aurait entendu les cours lorsque celui-ci les dispensait à Akko. Le résultat de ses investigations paraît en 1294, alors qu'il s'est établi comme médecin à Constantinople, sous la forme du Sefer haMivhar veTov haMis'har, qui fera sa réputation. Aaron ben Joseph est principalement connu pour ses commentaires bibliques, en particulier celui sur le Pentateuque, intitulé le Sefer haMiv'har veTov haMis'har. Le Mivhar, s'il cite l'opinion de nombreux auteurs ka...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more

Excerpt: Aaron ben Elijah (Aharon son of Eliyahu), the Latter, of Nicomedia ( ; born 1328 or 1329 in Nicomedia 1369 in Constantinople) is often considered to be the most prominent Karaite theologian. He is referred to as "the Younger" to distinguish him from another Aaron ben Elijah, also a theologian from Constantinople, which was then the center of Karaite learning. Even though Aaron lived for much of his life in Constantinople, he is sometimes distinguished from the other Aaron Ben Elijah by the title "of Nicomedia," signifying another place he lived. While little is known about his personal life, he is considered by Karaites to be the equivalent of his contemporary, Maimonides, the most distinguished Jewish scholar of the time and an outspoken critic of the Karaites. In fact, it seems likely that Aaron made it his ambition to rival Maimonides by defending the Karaites from his attacks. To achieve this, he studied the extensive religious literature of both rabbinical Judaism and Islam, as wel...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=2223222 ... Read more

Excerpt: Ukraine Portal The Khazars (Turkic Dialect:Xazarlar) were a semi-nomadic Turkic people who dominated the Pontic steppe and the North Caucasus from the 7th to the 10th century. The name "Khazar" seems to be tied to a Turkic verb form meaning "wandering". In the 7th century, the Khazars founded an independent Khaganate in the Northern Caucasus along the Caspian Sea. Although the Khazars were initially Tengri shamanists, many converted to the Abrahamic faiths through interaction with the Byzantine Empire and successive Islamic caliphates; during the 8th or 9th century, the Khaganate adopted Judaism as the state religion. At their height, the Khazars and their tributaries controlled much of what is today southern Russia, western Kazakhstan, eastern Ukraine, Azerbaijan, large portions of the Northern Caucasus (Circassia, Dagestan, Chechnya), parts of Georgia and the Crimea. Between 965 and 969, their sovereignty was broken by Sviatoslav I of Kiev, and they became a subject people of Kievan Rus'. Gradually displaced by the Rus, the Kipchaks, and later the conquering Mongol Golden Horde, the Khazars largely disappeared as a culturally distinct people. The site of the Khazar fortress at Sarkel.
