Restoring Abrahamic Faith - James D. Tabor

Restoring Abrahamic Faith attempts to set forth in a clear and engaging style an \nexposition of the ancient Hebrew Faith as revealed in the Hebrew Bible, with a particular \nemphasis on Abraham, Moses, the Torah, and the Prophets. It offers a compelling proposal \nfor the 21st century, namely a return to the ancient paths of the Hebrew faith with \nAbraham, the first Hebrew, as a prime model. As such it is foundational to the origins \nof Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, the three great Abrahamic Faiths that subsequently \ndeveloped in different directions. Abrahamic Faith takes one back to the beginnings, and \nthereby offers a perspective that is as fascinating as it is valuable for anyone interested in \nthe biblical tradition. This Fourth Edition has been carefully revised and expanded and is \ngeared to non-specialist readers-written for those of any faith or no faith, but especially \nthose who are drawn to understanding the historical Jesus and his original Hebraic \nmessage in its ancient biblical contexts.
