Damon, Budel, 2004. 159p. Paperback. Signature in pencil on free endpaper. Small stamp on last endpaper. De bundel 'In de voetsporen van Abraham' bevat een aantal bijdragen over het belang van de persoon van Abraham voor de interreligieuze dialoog tussen joden, christenen en moslims. In juni 2003 werd het eerste symposium onder deze titel met veel succes georganiseerd door Stichting Islam en Dialoog. Het symposium in juni 2004 werd georganiseerd door Stichting Islam en Dialoog, de Werkgroep Interreligieuze Dialoog van het Instituut der Religiestudies van de Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen en de Folkertsma Stichting voor Talmudica. Het is uniek in Nederland dat drie organisaties met een verschillende religieuze achtergrond een dergelijk symposium gezamenlijk organiseren. De bijdragen gaan in op de persoon van Abraham en belichten zijn rol als profeet en voorloper vanuit de joodse, christelijke en islamitische tradities. Er wordt aandacht besteed aan theologische vragen rond het voorstel van Karl-Josef Kuschel om tot een Abrahamitische oecumene te komen, maar er wordt ook aandacht besteed aan de vraag wat een dergelijk symposium nu kan betekenen voor het concrete samenleven van joden, christenen en moslims in Nederland. In een nawoord wordt ingegaan op het inhoudelijke resultaat en op de organisatorische aspecten van een dergelijk symposium, gericht op de mogelijkheid om een begin te maken met een nieuwe traditie in Nederland van interreligieus samenwerken in theorie en praktijk rond de figuur van Abraham.'

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The Quran often addresses Jews and Christians as People of Scripture to indicate that they have received revelation from God. Yet, while acknowledging the special relationship and knowledge that this revelation brings, the Quran at the same time criticizes the People of Scripture for not remaining true to Gods guidance and claiming special power over Gods gifts. The mixture of acknowledgment and criticism is based on actual encounters with Jews and Christians at the time of the revelation of the Quran. This Christian commentary on the 31 texts in which the Quran discusses and addresses the People of Scripture includes the Muslim tradition of interpretation of these texts and adds Christian resonances in order to contribute to future dialogue between Muslims and Christians on the common heritage and the differences between them.
