Abraham Fulfilled: A Biblical Study of God's Plan for Ishmael and Arabia

Description

A long-standing tradition of discussion among Muslims, Jews, and Christians is the question of whether Muhammad is to be considered the fulfillment of Abraham’s prophetic legacy. Over the last few decades, Jewish and Christian apologists have become increasingly sophisticated in their objections to the notion of Muhammad in the Bible. This book stands on the shoulders of the giants in Islamic scholarly tradition, and builds on their work to bring the topic kicking and screaming into the modern apologetics age. This book is a unique contribution to the topic. It represents a paradigm shift in terms of delivery, building an accumulative case for Muhammad in the Bible that the book dubs “the Arabian Prophecies”. It cites a vast corpus of supporting academic material including Hebrew and Greek linguists, Jewish rabbis, and church theologians. Moreover, the authors have trawled through heaps of literature as well as countless academic debates to compile the most formidable objections into one handy resource, comprehensively dismantling them in the process. The book will take you on a journey through the Bible, dispelling misconceptions about Abraham’s family and giving you the key to unlock critical prophecies about Ishmael and Arabia that for many have been 'hidden in plain sight' until now. These are prophecies that will forever change your perspective on the Bible.
