Hardback. Traces how each community has come to revere Abraham as an exemplar of its own spiritual teachings and practices. This book reveals how the increasingly conventional notion of equally "Abrahamic" religions derives from a dangerous misunderstanding of key biblical and Qur'anic texts, and fails to do full justice to any of the traditions.

Hardback. It is widely recognized that the creators of the Talmud innovatively interpreted and changed the older traditions on which they drew.
