The Monotheistic Religions: Judaism, Christianity, Islam

More than half of the world's current population follow one of the three major monotheistic religions: Islam, Christianity, and Judaism. Although there are significant differences in the practice and beliefs of these three religious systems, they also share several important characteristics. The most essential of these is monotheism-the belief that there is only one God, who created and rules the universe and all its inhabitants. This book examines the origins of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, discussing the ways in which these three religions are similar and how they differ.
