We begin Maimonides' introduction to his classic work. He describes different categories of terms that are used by the prophets and how they can be interpreted. He then describes how confusing it can be for an educated person when what he reads in the prophets contradicts what he knows to be true. Maimonides tells us that he wrote this book in order to help people out of this perplexing dilemma.
