Islam-Judaism-Christianity Comparative ReadingsBy William Garrison Jr."Readings in Judaism; Christianity; and Islam" by: J. Corrigan; F. Denny; C. Eire M. Jafee; (1998); English; p. 376. Publisher's note: "Composed mainly of primary source readings; but including important secondary sources well; Readings in Judaism; Christianity; and Islam is designed to provide both chronological and topical coverage of each religion. The readings are grouped under six headings: Scripture and Tradition; Monotheism; Authority and Community; Worship and Ritual; Ethics; and Religion and Political Order. Readings for all three religions are arranged to allow for the identification of similarities and differences among the traditions. A brief introduction sets each reading in its time and place and; in many cases; provides commentary on the significance of the material. Readings in Judaism; Christianity; and Islam is designed to supplement lectures and textbooks; is accessible to those just embarking on their study of Judaism; Christianity; and Islam; provides a comprehensive basis for further study of all three religious traditions; and balances short; pointed excerpts with longer; detailed readings."6 of 8 people found the following review helpful. Excellent Comparative Religion TextBy AutumnThis book is an excellent text for those interested in a basic survey of Western scripture. It's split up into chapters based on major religous concepts; allowing the reader to compare the concepts through out the three traditions very easily. This book is a great way to start anyone's study of comparative western religion.
