[Avodah] Peshat

[Zvi Lampel]

The Hebrew texts of Rabbaynu Saadia Gaon's (al HaTorah) and Rav Yosef Albo's (in Sefer HaIkarrim) expositions on "peshat" 
can be seen by clicking on the following:

http://www.aishdas.org/avodah/faxes/rsgalhaTorah.pdf (the last line of the 
first page is trimmed, but readable)
and 
http://www.aishdas.org/avodah/faxes/ikkarim.jpg

My translations of the above can be seen by clicking on:

 http://www.aishdas.org/avodah/faxes/rsgalhaTorah.doc and 
http://www.aishdas.org/avodah/faxes/ikkarim.doc
 

I also think it's worthwhile reviewing the following Avodah posts from the past:
"Pshat vs Drash, Rambam in Shmone Prakim " in 02:007;
"P'shat vs Halachah" in 02:122 
"pshat vs. derash" in Avodah 2:123 and 129;
"Pshat vs Drash" in 2:129, 10:087, 088, 090 and 096--especially the post from RRWolpoe;
