Abraham in Jewish and Early Christian Literature

by Sean A Adams & Zanne Domoney-Lyttle

  • First published:
  • 21st century
  • Language: English

The figure of Abraham has been extensively discussed in Jewish and Early Christian Literature. This collection of essays follows the impact of Abraham across biblical texts, including the Pseudigrapha and Apocrypha into early Greek, Latin and Gnostic literature. The essays also turn a spotlight onto those Abrahamic texts that have yet to receive scholarly attention.
