Hi,
My apologies for my absence these past few days; it was due to illness.
"Any interpretation, from whatever foreign source it may
originate, that acknowledges Gd, Israel and the Torah as historic realities,
and attempts to provide the metaphysical or theological corollary to the facts
and events for which they stand, may well be incorporated in a Jewish
philosophy. On the other hand, any interpretation that attempts to substitute
the idea, the metaphysics, and the philosophy for the historic reality, cannot
be called Jewish."
(Rabbi Eliezer Berkovits, What is Jewish Philosophy?, pp. 121-122)
Have a great day,
Mordechai
