PHILOSOPHY OF RELIGIOUS (Hebrews).

A doctrine that has more than one point of resemblance with those of Plato and Spinoza which by its shape, sometimes high up majestic tone of religious poetry that originated on the same land and roughly in the same time as Christianity which, for a period of more than twelve centuries without further proof that riiypotliese an ancient tradition, without apparent motive other than the desire to penetrate more deeply into the meaning of the holy books, has supported and propagated in the shade the deeper mystery: this is what we find, after we Epures them to any alloys in the original monuments and debris in the oldest of Kabbalah *.

At a time when the history of philosophy and in general all the historical research have acquired such importance, where we finally seem willing to believe that the human mind is entirely revealed in all its works, it seems to me that such a subject, considered a superior point of view to the spirit of sect and party, could excite a legitimate interest, and that the same difficulties which it is spiky, the dark he presented, in ideas as in language, would be for him who would dare to approach a promise of leniency.

The most innovative aspect of Adolphe Franck philosophy lies in the area of the foundations of civil law, and especially criminal law. The principle of atonement as the basis for the penalty and the alleged right to punish or chastise, taken in the sense of 'reward evil with evil, "he opposes the law of conservation society is -to say its legitimate right of defense in respect of all that tends to destroy it. Hence derive the other two rights of society: the right to intimidation and repair law.
