The connection between the "Epistle of the Brethren of Purity" and Ismailism might have suggested the adoption of this work as one of the main sources of what would become known as “Jewish Ismailism” as was found in Late Medieval Yemenite Judaism. This “Jewish Ismailism” consisted of adapting to Judaism a few Ismaili doctrines about cosmology, prophecy, and hermeneutics. I know, wow!
Steve F, I'm considering hitting up Tiger tomorrow. What do you think about the forecast?
Thanks,
ERiC
