Milhamoth ha-Shem (Template:Lang-he) or Milhamoth Adonai (Wars of the Lord) is the title of several Hebrew polemical texts. The phrase is taken from the Book of the Wars of the Lord referenced in Numbers 21:14–15.

Milhamoth ha-Shem of Abraham, son of Maimonides, 13th century
Abraham ben Moses ben Maimon's Wars of the Lord is a treatise defending his father Maimonides against slander.[5][6]

It served as a template for Abner's later work ʾMoreh Zedek, which now survives in a Castilian translation as Mostrador de justicia and much material from the Sefer is repeated there. Abner translated the work into Castilian himself at the behest of Blanca, Lady of Las Huelgas in Burgos around the year 1320, and a copy of this translation was seen by traveller Ambrosio de Morales in Valladolid in the 16th century.[9]
