From the covenant of Abraham to the rise of global faith communities, this groundbreaking comparative study traces the intertwined histories, scriptures, and beliefs of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Written in clear and accessible language, Abrahamic Religions invites readers to explore how these three great traditions-often seen as rivals-actually form a complex family of faiths shaped by shared origins, overlapping narratives, and enduring debates about God, law, revelation, and salvation.
Through a careful balance of historical analysis and theological reflection, the book examines how each religion defines its relationship to the divine, to scripture, to the other traditions, and to the modern world. Key topics include:
- Origins and early trajectories of Israel, the Church, and the Ummah
- Scripture and canon formation: Torah, Bible, and Qur'an
- Law, grace, and guidance in Halakha, Canon Law, and Sharīʿa
- Divine unity and the nature of God in Shema, Trinity, and Tawḥīd
- Mysticism and spiritual practice across Kabbalah, Christian monasticism, and Sufism
- Modern challenges: secularization, dialogue, and coexistence
