| Mar 18, 2015 at 2:42 | comment | added | Y e z | @Shalom it's not possible that he had an interest in medicine before taking it up as a full time profession? | |
| Mar 18, 2015 at 0:56 | comment | added | Shalom | @yEz given how much medical advice is contained in Hilchot De'ot (and other medical insights are dispersed throughout the Yad), it would boggle the mind to propose that he wrote it before he studied medicine. He may have written it after retiring from medicine, theoretically; but we all agree that the jeweler-brother phase of his life was before he studied medicine. | |

| Mar 17, 2015 at 21:06 | comment | added | Y e z | @Shalom I heard it said about Mishneh Torah specifically. Why do you assume he wrote Mishneh Torah while working, if he said he doesn't have any time? I imagine that would be a good reason why he didn't write any more after that. | |
| Mar 17, 2015 at 21:04 | comment | added | Shalom | Certainly wouldn't have been the Mishna Torah period of his life, that was one of his last works, and clearly by the time he wrote it he knew medicine. It's possible some of his earlier works (e.g. his Talmud commentaries) were written during the jeweler period; most likely the jeweler period was when he was studying. | |

| Mar 17, 2015 at 20:56 | comment | added | Y e z | @user6591 I don't know. I know there was a letter to Ibn Tibbon where he said he doesn't have time to review his translation because he is so busy working. Is it in that letter? That would be a fine source for me. | |
| Mar 17, 2015 at 20:55 | comment | added | user6591 | Didn't he say so himself in his letter to Ibn Tibbon? | |
