Enlarge text Shrink text
  • Book

The idea that God reveals himself to human beings is central in Judaism, Christianity and Islam, but differs in regard of content and conceptualization. While Judaism and Islam consider revelation as a verbal one, for Christians the word of God became a human being. But what does it mean that God speaks through the Torah, through Christ and trough Qur'ān? Which concepts of hearing and understanding the eternal logos can be found in each of the traditions and which of them do they share? The first volume of the new series Key Concepts in Interreligious Discourses offers fundamental knowledge about the specific understanding of revelation in each one of these traditions and unfolds commonalities and differences among them"-- Back cover.
