Reason Yields to Revelation

Maavar Yabok deals with death, burial and mourning through Kabbalah and halachic custom, not through philosophical argument. To answer anyone who might criticise him for this, the author cites Rav Yitzchok Arama in Akedas Yitzchok, who teaches that human reason must give up some of its claims before the divine revelations, which are higher than it.
