SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Hebrew Texts in Jewish, Christian and Muslim Surroundings' offers a new perspective on Judaism, Christianity and Islam as religions of the book. Their problematic relation seems to indicate that there is more that divides than unites these religions. The present volume will show that there is an intricate web of relations between the texts of these three religious traditions. On many levels readings and interpretations intermingle and influence each other. Studying the multifaceted history of the way Hebrew texts were read and interpreted in so many different contexts may contribute to a better understanding of the complicated relation between Jews, Christians and Muslims. These studies are attributed to Dineke Houtman honouring her work as professor for Jewish-Christian relations.
