message: He was born in Spain; thus I assume he was Sephardic, not Ashkenazi.  Anyone know for sure?  --172.147.2.65 07:37, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: As you say, he was from Spain, so by definition he was Sefardi.  I don't understand your question.   Zsero 02:43, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

message: The article wrote: "Ibn Ezra is claimed by the proponents of the higher biblical criticism of the Pentateuch as one of its earliest pioneers, although the passages that this position is based upon can lend themselves to less radical readings. Some Orthodox writers have recently argued that Ibn Ezra can be understood to have fully embraced the Orthodox Jewish creed that the entire Pentateuch was divinely dictated in a word-perfect manner to Moses[4]." As mentioned above, there are various verses used to show that Ibn Ezra believed in Post-Mosaic authorship.   [4] refers to an article that interprets "The Canaanites Were Then in the Land" as being written by Moses. [4] at best partially addresses the issue of whether Ibn Ezra accepted Mosaic authorship. The article should list the alleged post mosaic verses, and then the traditional response. Alternatively, there should be a new article that addresses Ibn Ezra and Post Mosaic authrship as this is a very important issue. It seemed unbalanced that this article didn't list the several verses in Ibn Ezra's work that demonstrate post-mosaic authorship but it does quote a rebuttal on one verse.

thread_title: Ibn Ezra and Authorship of the Pentateuch 

message: Sefaria has a full 30 different texts written by Ibn Ezra (counting each book of Tanach, Second Version of Ibn Ezra on Esther, Yesod Mora, and The Sabbath Epistle) some of them in multiple languages.
Probably most relevant to the English speaking world are:
* original Hebrew and a complete English translation of The Sabbath Epistle, translated and annotated by Mordechai S. Goodman, published by Ktav, and released with a CC-BY license 
* An English translation of Ibn Ezra on Leviticus and Deuteronomy, translated by Jay F. Shachter, originally published by Ktav, and now released with a CC-BY license
I believe that a links to these would fall under section 2 of WP:ELYES.
I have a COI (I work for Sefaria), and have discussed it on WikiProject:Judaism.

message: I question this statement: "When Ibn Ezra moved to Córdoba as a young man, Halevi followed him. This trend continued when the two began their lives as wanderers in 1137. As they wandered both together and separately from one another for some three decades...": This cannot be right, since Halevi died in 1141. The source quoted does not make it clear. Nor is it clear (since the original contributor wrote a mistake) whether Ibn Ezra moved to Cordoba before Halevi or the other way round. The whole paragraph is dubious, since it isn't known if Halevi come from Tudela, according to the article on him. Kanjuzi (talk) 19:55, 10 November 2019 (UTC)
