This group gathers the Abrahamic religions, the monotheistic traditions that trace their spiritual descent to the patriarch Abraham and share a common Near Eastern root, a linear view of history, and belief in one transcendent God who reveals a moral law through prophets and scripture.
The browser will find Judaism, Christianity and Islam, the three great Abrahamic faiths, together with related traditions that share this heritage. The entries describe each religion's scriptures, beliefs and history in its own terms, noting both the deep family resemblance and the real theological differences that divide them.
