There is an argument known as the Kuzari Principle.
It tries to justify belief in whole swathes of the Biblical narrative,
especially in the revelation at Mount Sinai. In this blog post, I hope to show
that the argument is much stronger than it might seem. The name of the argument
is slightly unfair, as it was first put forward not in R. Yehuda Halevi's Kuzari,
but in Saadya Gaon's Emunot Vadeot.
