Book Reviews of Abraham : A Journey to the Heart of Three Faiths
Book Review: The common thread between three monotheistic religions
Summary: 3 Stars
I think I listened to this book twice, and I still should listen to it again. Bruce Feiler provides so much fascinating information about the three religions that claim to originate from Abraham -- Judaism, Christianity and Islam. He carefully compares and contrasts the three without pronouncing a "winner," but instead, he repeatedly demonstrates how all three religions depend on the man (or the myth) called Abraham. I was especially intrigued by his exposition of the contradicting claims about Abraham, Isaac and Ishmael that are made by the three religions. It makes you wonder whether we will ever know the historical "truth." It's much easier to simply accept your own religion's teachings through blind faith.
