In all three Abrahamic faiths, Judaism, Christianity and Islam,
marriage is part of God's plan for humanity, as illustrated in the
Hebrew Scriptures, the New Testament, and the Koran as well as the
religious literature of these three traditions. It is viewed as a
sacred bond as well as a means to personal fulfilment. It is more
than a legal contract, rather an institution with cosmic
significance, legitimized through divine authority. In Judaism,
Christianity and Islam, the purpose of marriage is to build a home,
create a family and thereby perpetuate society. Yet, despite the
similarity of perception in the great monotheistic faiths, there
are important differences. In this book three scholars outline sex
law, betrothal and marriage, family life and the understanding of
divorce in these traditions and discuss the differences between
them in a student-friendly and accessible way.
