The Sacrifice of Isaac is one of the most well-known stories in the
Bible. It is also a shocking account of how Abraham's faith in God
was demonstrated by a willingness to sacrifice his long-awaited son
at God's command. This story has been a source of fascination for
Jews and Christians for many centuries and here, Edward Kessler
offers an enthralling account of Jewish and Christian
interpretations of this biblical story. For understandable reasons,
it has been assumed that Judaism influenced Christian
interpretation but relatively little attention has been given to
the question of the influence of Christianity upon Judaism. Kessler
provides an insight into this absorbing two-way encounter and
argues that neither Jewish nor Christian interpretations can be
understood properly without reference to the other. As Jews and
Christians lived, and continue to live, in a biblically orientated
culture, Kessler shows how both were 'bound by the bible'.
