In this video lesson, we take a look at the three Semitic religions: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.  We discover how each of these religions is connected to each other, not only by how they each have their origins in the Middle East, but do the fact they all connected due to Abraham.

We then examine the basic beliefs, holy texts, and holy sites of each religion.  In fact, we realize that it is some of these holy sites that have created tension between each of these religions.

This video lesson is produced to meet the Texas Education Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) standards for the World Geography studies course.   However, it is useful to anyone who wishes to learn more about these three great religions.
