About this product

Product Information

In this timely, provocative, and uplifting journey, the bestselling author of Walking the Bible searches for the man at the heart of the world's three monotheistic religions--and today's deadliest conflicts. At a moment when the world is asking "can the religions get along?" one figure stands out as the shared ancestor of Jews, Muslims, and Christians. One man holds the key to our deepest fears--and our possible reconciliation. Abraham is that man. Bruce Feiler set out on a personal quest to better understand our common patriarch. Traveling in war zones, climbing through caves and ancient shrines, and sitting down with the world's leading religious minds, Feiler uncovers fascinating, little known details of the man who defines faith for half the world. Both immediate and timeless, Abraham is a powerful, universal story, the first-ever interfaith portrait of the man God chose to be his partner. Thoughtful and inspiring, it offers a rare vision of hope that will redefine what we think about our neighbors, our future, and ourselves.

Abraham
This was a very informative narrative of information about three faiths: Judaism, Christianity and Islam and how they all claim their roots in Abraham. The author discusses how and why each faith altered the story of Abraham to meet the needs of their faith. The author narrates the story in an interesting manner and the history and information is peppered with captivating stories of the author's journey to find the information. I found the message of Abraham to be personally informative on my own spiritual path thanks to this set of tapes.

Short and to the point.
The book covers the various aspects of Abraham, the father of the three major single diety religions in the world, Jews, Christians and Muslims. Abraham is considered by many to be the father of all three. He came from nowhere, was sent elsewhere to create nations everywhere and all of this in old age.

Abraham by Bruce Feiler
I so enjoyed reading Bruce Feiler's Walking The Bible and Where God Was Born that I wanted to read other Biblical history books by this same author. I enjoyed Abraham but found it to be much more theological than the other 2 books which dealt mainly with the physical historics of the geography and rulers of the area, both past and present. I loved studying the contrasting beliefs and respect bestowed upon Abraham by the Jewish, Christian, and Muslim faiths. I am glad that I read Abraham after reading the other 2 books first.
