A collection of essays by leading scholars from the perspective of
each faith addressing key issues which both divide and unite Jews,
Christians and Muslims. The world today is only too painfully aware
of the tension, suspicion and at times outright hostility that
exists among followers of the three great monotheistic religions of
Judaism, Christianity and Islam. In Abraham's Children
distinguished scholars from all three faiths examine the key issues
which either unite or divide Jews, Christians and Muslims today and
offer constructive suggestions for developing mutual understanding,
trust and co-operation. The book is divided into two parts. Part
One, Foundations of Faith, explores the significance of Abraham,
Moses, Jesus and Muhammad. Part Two, Resources for the Modern
World, deals with such diverse topics as the image of God in
humanity, religion and pluralism, gender, the environment and life
after death. Each section is followed by a chapter identifying
areas of common ground, as well as continuing differences and
questions needing further exploration. The Oxford Abrahamic Group
has been meeting for more than ten years. whom are highly conscious
that monotheism itself is under question in the modern world. The
book demonstrates that faith cannot be shared more widely without
an acute awareness of the questions the world poses.
