Summary/Abstract: Against the background of Moses Maimenide's philosophy about the overflowing of prophetic grace as attainment of human perfection, Abraham ben Moses ben Maimon's spiritual leadership built a limited proximity between the Judeo-Egyptian pietism and the mystical theology of medieval Sufism from the perspective of the human-theocratical ontology of the spiritual way and stations-levels susceptible to allow the access of the human soul towards the vision-presence of the Divine Being.
