English summary: Jewish medieval philosophers, from Saadia Gaon to Maimonides to Hasdai Crescas, all adopted esoteric strategies when they wrote on the creation of the world. It was not so much a matter of avoiding censorship and persecution than of developing a thought that goes beyond the boundaries of language. French description: Les philosophes juifs medievaux – de Saadai Gaon a Hasday Crescas, en passant par Maimonide – emploient des strategies d’ecriture esoterique lorsqu’ils traitent de la question de la creation du monde. L’usage d’un tel art d’ecrire ne saurait s’expliquer par le seul imperatif de prudence ou la crainte de la persecution (il ne fait pas bon de mettre en cause des opinions traditionnelles). Il s’impose quand se rencontrent les sciences philosophiques et l’hermeneutique rabbinique. La pensee est alors exposee a des problemes qui mettent en defaut les capacites du langage. En atteste notamment l’effort repete des philosophes pour tenter d’enoncer le surgissement du dicible.
