by Maimonides. This volume deals with halachot that govern a Jewish King and other aspects of public policy(how to conduct wars, for example, or the 7 mitzvot given to the gentiles which can be enforced by a Jewish court) but in it the Rambam takes up the subject of the Messianic age as well. What the Messiah must accomplish, the difference between the Messianic Age and our times, the role of Elijah the Prophet and more. And in a series of halachot which Christian censors have removed from nearly all texts of the Mishneh Torah, the Rambam goes into the question of the status of Christianity and Islam and of their founders. These important halachot have been restored in this edition. This volume, a continuation of the Mishneh Torah series, presents a vowelized Hebrew text, a facing translation, and a concentrated, but inclusive commentary.
