Many of the Bible's characters and stories are also found in the
Qur'an, but there are often differing details or new twists in the
Qur'an's retelling of biblical narrative. In this compelling book,
seasoned theologian Michael Lodahl explores these fascinating
divergences to discover the theological difference they make.
Writing from a Christian perspective that is respectful of the
Islamic tradition, Lodahl offers an accessible introduction to
Muslim theology and to the Qur'an's leading themes to help readers
better understand Islam. Lodahl compares and contrasts how the
Bible and the Qur'an depict and treat certain characters in common
to both religions, including Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Jesus. He
offers theological reflection on doctrines held in common by
Christians and Muslims, such as creation, revelation, and the
resurrection of the body. Lodahl also explores the Jewish tradition
as an important source for understanding the Qur'an.
