Abstract
The aim of the study is to prove that faith, being a free action, cannot be a commandment due to a problem that arises within the Divine Command Theory (DCT). This problem was explicated in the article "I Can't Make You Worship Me" by famous philosophers of religion Campbell Brown and Eugene Nagasawa, published in 2005 in the magazine "Ratio", and consists in the impossibility of connecting DCT with a moral obligation to worship God. It is shown that the critical approach proposed by K. Brown and Y. Nagasawa is applicable not only to worship, but also to the commandment of faith. The scientific novelty lies in attracting a number of texts of medieval Jewish philosophers to the analysis and examining them through the prism of the methods of modern analytical philosophy of religion to argue the author's position. As a result of the research, the idea was substantiated that there are a number of human actions that cannot be commanded within the DCT.
