Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: JEE-JUN
JOEL, MANUEL (1826189o) , Jewish philosopher and preacher. After teaching for several years at the
Breslau
  rabbinical semi-nary, founded by Z.
Frankel
 , he became the successor of Abraham Geiger in the rabbinate of
Breslau
 . He made important contributions to the history of the school of Aqiba (q.v.) as well as to the history of Jewish philosophy, his essays on Ibn Gabirol and Maimonides being of permanent worth. But his most influential
work
  was connected with the relations between Jewish philosophy and the medieval
scholasticism
 . He showed how Albertus
Magnus
  derived some of his ideas from Maimonides and how Spinoza was indebted to the same writer, as well as to Hasdai Crescas. These essays were collected in two volumes of Beitrdge zur Geschichte der Philosophic (1876)3 while another two volumes of Blicke in die Religionsgeschichte (188o1883) threw much light on the development of religious thought in the early centuries of the Christian era. Equally renowned were Joel's pulpit addresses. Though he was no orator, his
appeal
  to the reason was effective, and in their published form his three volumes of Predigten (issued posthumously) have found many readers. (I. A.)
