German commentary | "Like Spinoza", Cohen "distinguishes sharply between the philosophical value of religious law and political law. Recognizing these similarities between Spinoza and Cohen on law also illuminates Spinoza's more nuanced relationship to law than his naturalism and his critique of positive Jewish law often suggest. Cohen and Spinoza differ most not on Jewish law, but on the ultimate philosophical significance of political law." (abtract) |
