These writings contain stories about great faith leaders variously called messengers, or prophets, or patriarchs. The stories and writings of these holy men are the basis of the faith of these traditions and are the part of the same sacred history. The goals for this course are as follows: To provide you with a firm understanding of how the Abrahamic traditions are interconnected. To provide you with an understanding of how these faith traditions holy scriptures have commonalities and differences. To show how these stories function in providing spiritual and moral lessons about life for their reader.
