or ABRAHAM BEN DAVID
(1110?–80?), historian and philosopher, born in Toledo, Spain. He was one of the first Jewish philosophers to introduce the Aristotelian system of knowledge to Judaism. His philosophical work, written in Arabic, Al-akidah al-Rafiyah and preserved in a Hebrew translation as Emanah Ramah (The Sublime Faith, 1168), influenced the philosopher Maimonides. Ibn Daud‘s historical work, Sefer ha-Kabbalah (Book of Tradition, 1161), includes a history of the Jews in Spain.
