Review
This is a wonderfully diverse and large volume of essays on scriptural exegesis from the perspective of one of the three ‘Abrahamic’ faiths that include pieces offering a comparative perspective on narratives cutting across multiple traditions. I will limit my review to my area of expertise, Islamic studies, and thereby focus upon those articles I feel qualified to critically comment upon.
