Verso: Maimonides’ reply is gracious but firm: he is exhausted, frail, and ill, and has no time or energy to meet with the writer. He may, however, see his correspondent on Shabbat at the house of study. He recommends the writer eat almonds, raisins, and date honey. The letter may date to the latter part of Maimonides’ life, but may well date to an earlier period. As Kraemer notes, Maimonides occasionally invoked ill health and fatigue to deter visitors and preserve his privacy. Dating: ca. 1168–1204 CE, based the years Maimonides was active in Egypt.
