Summary
|
|
The Old Testament story of Abraham and the
trials he endures. Commanded by God to lead his family to
the promised land of Canaan with the promise that if he
does so, his descendants will become a great and numerous
tribe. His obedience, as well as that of his children and
grandchildren, is severely tested as they prove their faith
to God. Written by Jean-Marc Rocher {rocher@fiberbit.net}
The first chapter in the story of Salvation.
Rather than choosing a great leader or king, God chooses
Abraham, an elderly shepherd from Mesopotamia, as the way
to establish his Covenant with mankind ... Abraham is a
man of great faith. After his calling he continues to believe
in God even when He seems to have abandoned him. For Abraham,
God's greatest promise is that his family will continue
through the line of Isaac, Abraham's favourite son. However
God presents him with a tremendous test by asking him to
sacrifice of Isaac. Is Abraham willing to put God first?
Even before the life of his son? Written by Lux Vide (here)

About
Abraham and Abrahamic
religions
|
| |
|
|
| Abraham (Hebrew:
Standard Avraham Tiberian ?A?rāhām Ashkenazi Avrohom or Avruhom
; Arabic: , Ibrāhīm ; Ge'ez:, Abraham) is a man featured in
the Book of Genesis and an important figure in several monotheistic
religions. Jewish, Christian and Muslim traditions regard
him as the founding patriarch of the Israelites, Ishmaelites
and Edomite peoples. He is widely regarded as the patriarch
of Judaism and Islam and monotheism. Abraham means "Father
of Nations"[citation needed] - "Av" is Hebrew
for "Father", and "Raham" is the Arabic
for "Nations or Multitude". Also considered to mean
"High Father", coming from the Aramaic words "Aba
Rama"[citation needed]
Abraham's father was Terah, the grandfather
was Nahor. Abraham's brothers were named Nahor and Haran.[2]
According to Genesis, Abraham was brought by God from Mesopotamia
to the land of Canaan. There Abraham entered into a covenant:
in exchange for sole recognition of YHWH as supreme universal
deity and authority, Abraham will be blessed with innumerable
progeny. According to Jewish tradition (based on the Anno
Mundi era), Abraham lived AM 1948–2123 (1812 BCE to 1637
BCE). Christian traditional dates are about 2000 BCE to
1825 BCE.[3]
|
|
| Judaism, Christianity
and Islam are sometimes referred to as the "Abrahamic
religions" because of the progenitor role Abraham plays
in their holy books. In the Jewish tradition, he is called
Avraham Avinu or "Abraham, our Father". God promised
Abraham that through his offspring, all the nations of the
world will come to be blessed (Genesis 12:3), interpreted
in Christian tradition as a reference particularly to Christ.
Jews, Christians, and Muslims consider him father of the people
of Israel through his son Isaac (cf. Exodus 6:3, Exodus 32:13)
by his wife Sarah. For Muslims, he is a prophet of Islam and
the ancestor of Muhammad through his other son Ishmael - born
to him by his second wife, Hagar. (Jews and Christians refer
to Hagar as Sarah's servant). Abraham is also a progenitor
of the Semitic tribes of the Negev who trace their descent
from their common ancestor Sheba (More) |

Abrahamic
religions From
Wikipedia
Symbols of the three main Abrahamic religions: Judaism (top),
Christianity (left) and Islam (right).
Map showing the prevalence of Abrahamic (pink) and Dharmic
(yellow) religions in each country.Abrahamic religions are
monotheistic faiths which recognize a spiritual tradition
identified with Abraham.[1][2][3] The term is mostly used
to refer collectively to Judaism, Christianity and Islam.
There are other religions included in the term, such as the
Samaritans, the Druze, the Mandaeans, the Rastafarians and
the Bahá'í.[4] Abrahamic religions account for more than half
of the world's total population. Today, there are around 3.8
billion followers of various Abrahamic religions.[5]
The major non-Abrahamic world religions
are grouped as "Eastern religions", encompassing
the "Dharmic" religions of India and the "Taoic"
East Asian religions. Use of the term "Abrahamic"
is far from universal and has been found to be problematic
for many reasons.
|
Origin
of the expression
The term "Abrahamic religion" is derived from a
term of Islamic origin, Millat Ibrahim, [2][3] although in
Muslim use only Islam is seen as truly reflecting the "Faith
of Abraham". It thus refers to the traditional claim
of relationship by the Arab Muslims to Abraham through his
son Ishmael, which is extended to include Muhammad, thus making
Abraham a common ancestor to all later prophets, since all
(except Muhammad) were descended from Israelites. Christians
refer to Abraham as a "father in faith" (see Romans
4); the phrase may also be meant to suggest that all three
religions come from one spiritual source.[7]
Judaism, Christianity, and Islam (as well
as the Baha'i Faith) comprise a family of religions. A number
of terms recognize their historico-theological links: the
popular label "Peoples of the Book" underlines
the central role scripture plays among their adherents,
while scholars of religion sometimes categorize them as
the "three major monotheistic faiths." The term
"Abrahamic" has advantages over both usages; it
focuses on a more specific affinity than does the first
and avoids the categorical and interpretive controversies
that may arise over the second while emphasizing the paramount
place that Abraham holds in all three traditions.[8]
Abraham is recorded in the Torah as the
ancestor of the Israelites through his son Isaac, born to
Sarah through a promise made in Genesis..... (More)

About
Jing
Our friend,
Rodison C. Leonardo, was born in
the Philippines, a native Filipino. You can also call him by his
nickname Jing. He's 34 years old, a Roman Catholic. He holds a
degree of Bachelor of Science in Electronics and Communication
Engineering. There was once an occurrence in his life he wanted
to enter Priesthood after his graduation in college. For some
personal reasons, he didn't continue to pursue it. Until now it's
very hard to admit that he's still a bachelor at his mature age.
He only diverts his time to watch film or hear music after his
work. He loves film and music. His real hobbies are to collect
music in LPs and CDs, and also to collect films in VHS, VCD and
DVD as well. He started to like Sir Ennio Morricone's music when
he saw the film "The Mission" in 1995. He considered
The Mission music 'very influential' to him. Seeking more of Sir
Ennio's works, he joined in one of Morricone's prestige forums.
There he met many friends in different nations who really loved
to help those who were beginners of knowing Sir Ennio and his
magnificent scores. He still makes contact to some of them through
e-mail. Knowing friends who have one common goal, "to spread
the music of Sir Ennio Morricone", is a very remarkable and
tremendous experience for him. It's so great to know there's someone
in the Philippines who really appreciate Maestro Ennio Morricone,
truly the legend of film music.
