In Abraham: The Friend of God, Dr. Dirks provides Jewish, Christian, and Muslim readers with a unique and original presentation of the life of Abraham.
In constructing a chronological biography of Abraham, the author integrated and synthesized information from a wide range of Judeo-Christian and Islamic traditions, including the Bible, the Pseudepigrapha (i.e., Jubilees and the Genesis Apocryphon), the Quran, the authenticated sayings (sahih hadiths) of Prophet Muhammad, and the classic books of ancient history authored by Josephus and al-Tabari. This integrated biographical sketch is embedded in a framework drawn from the various historical and geographical contexts dealing with different aspects of Abraham's life.
