| Summary, etc. |
This manuscript was written with the hope that it will prove instrumental in pointing Christians of every denomination and ethnic background to the importance and richness of their Hebrew heritage.Our Father Abraham is an introduction to the world of Hebrew thought. It is intended primarily for Christians, but it is hoped that Jews may benefit from much of this book as well. Although this work is a biblical, historical, and cultural study, the reader will quickly find out that it is concerned with more than exploring the past. |
