Maimonides’ projects to combine Jewish tradition with Greco-Arabic Aristotelianism – a problem already in the Talmud addressed as “Greek wisdom” ("hokhmah yevanit"). Wolfson generalizes this to be an issue common to Latin, Arabic and Jewish traditions who all attempted “Philonic” structures to combine reason with revelation. Maimonides' attempt to synthesize philosophy with revelation followed similar attempts by Philo, Abraham ibn Daud and Saadia Gaon, but it arrived in Europe as Greek texts became more accessible to Christian scholars following the Sack of Constantinople and as the spread of universities spread challenged monasteries as the monopolies of scholarship. As the Catholic Church and the French crown conducted a military campaign against Catharism in Occitania and adjacent regions, both anti-Maimonidean rabbis and Catholic Dominican inquisitors were quick to draw connections between Catharism and Maimonides’ thought.
