Three Testaments: Torah, Gospel, and Quran
This work brings together in one volume scholarly and gender-inclusive translations and interpretations of Judaism’s Torah, Christianity’s New Testament, and Islam’s Qur’an. Each scriptural text is preceded by introductory and scholarly essays, often exploring the relationship of one to the other two. In addition, attention is given to the possible encounter of these three traditions with Zoroastrianism, thereby adding unique content. Intimately connected, the sacred scriptures of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are “possibly the most spiritually significant trilogy in the history of literature.” This work not only introduces each scriptural text but also serves as a foundation for greater understanding among the three traditions. Recommended for theological, academic, and large public libraries. --Christopher McConnell
