Restoring Abrahamic Faith attempts to set forth in a clear and engaging style an exposition of the ancient Hebrew Faith as revealed in the Hebrew Bible, with a particular emphasis on Abraham, Moses, the Torah, and the Prophets. Restoring Abrahamic Faith offers a compelling proposal for the 21st century, namely a return to the "ancient paths" of the Hebrew faith with Abraham, the first Hebrew, as a prime model. As such it is foundational to the origins of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, the three great Abrahamic Faiths that subsequently developed in different directions. Abrahamic Faith takes one back to the beginnings, and thereby offers a perspective that is as fascinating as it is valuable for anyone interested in the biblical tradition.
"ne of my favorite anthropological religious texts; Tabor is a acclaimed scholar and his analysis of Saul of Tarsus continues to be one of the most concise works of religious history. Starting with the Jesus dynasty I have read all of Tabors works and truly believe he is one of the most informed scholars on the subject of Pauline Christianity. As a religious studies major I can only hope to aspire to be as forth coming and clear in my own papers. Every book and scholarly paper this man writes is accreditation to modern religious studies! He strives to remain unbiased and true to the historical context of every attribute of early Christianity. He is an absolute pleasure to hear in audio form and my only complaint is that he did not record other texts in audio form himself aside from the The Jesus Dynasty.
Unfortunately I have to purchase a second copy of this text as my signed original has been lost in a move. This guy is my absolute favorite author of religious papers and books!"
