האם אתם מאמינים במלאכים (טובים/רעים), שטן, יצר הרע / הטוב, עין הרע (בתור כוח שיכול להשפיע על אנשים, לא בתור "עין רעה" - כלומר הסתכלות שלילית על אחרים), שדים? שרפים? מה אלגוריה ומה מציאות?
מלאך, האם זה אדם עם כנפיים? אדם שהוא מושלם? כוח בטבע? ("עושה מלאכיו רוחות, משרתיו אש לוהט"). :old_sad:
מתוך ויקיפדיה האנגלית, על הרמב"ם:
Chapter two of the treatise on resurrection refers to those who believe that the world to come involves physically resurrected bodies. Maimonides refers to one with such beliefs, as being an "utter fool" whose belief is "folly".
If one of the multitude refuses to believe [that angels are incorporeal] and prefers to believe that angels have bodies and even that they eat, since it is written (Genesis 18:'8') 'they ate', or that those who exist in the World to Come will also have bodies—we won't hold it against him or consider him a heretic, and we will not distance ourselves from him. May there not be many who profess this folly, and let us hope that he will go no farther than this in his folly and believe that the Creator is corporeal.
