 Gersonides is not known for his ethical views; as we have seen, most of his philosophical writings engage matters in the natural sciences. In his biblical commentaries, however, Gersonides focuses on a number of ethical issues. To take one example, Gersonides’ commentary on Songs of Songs is imbued with an extended discussion of human felicity. In this work, he claims that because of their inherent weakness and epistemological imperfections, most human beings are incapable of achieving felicity: “only very few individuals can acquire even a large measure of it.” (Gersonides, Songs of Songs, 6) For these masses, the Torah and its commandments function as the best guide to moral perfection. But if immortality is predicated on intellectual knowledge, and if philosophers such as Maimonides and Gersonides have argued that many individuals are psycho-physically incapable of embarking on such a rigorous and philosophical course of study, does it follow that not all humans can achieve intellectual perfection: is the road the same, and open, to all? And is there only one road to ultimate felicity, or are there many routes?
