| Summary |
"Tension between the three Abrahamic faiths often runs high. Yet, for all their differences, these three traditions -- Judaism, Christianity, and Islam -- share much in common. Three Testaments brings together for the first time the text of the Torah, the New Testament, and the Quran, so that readers can explore for themselves the connections, as well as the points of departure, between the three faiths. Notable religious scholars provide accessible introductions to each tradition, and commentary from Brian Arthur Brown explores how the three faiths may have roots in the ancient Zoroastrian tradition. This powerful book provides a much-needed interfaith perspective on key sacred texts." |
