Includes aids to help the reader, including the following: a glossary of difficult words and maps. Author : Sidney H. From the first centuries of Islam to well into the Middle Ages, Jews and Christians produced hundreds of manuscripts containing portions of the Bible in Arabic.
Until recently, however, these translations remained largely neglected by Biblical scholars and historians. In telling the story of the Bible in Arabic, this book casts light on a crucial transition in the cultural and religious life of Jews and Christians in Arabic-speaking lands. In pre-Islamic times, Jewish and Christian scriptures circulated orally in the Arabic-speaking milieu.
After the rise of Islam--and the Qur'an's appearance as a scripture in its own right--Jews and Christians translated the Hebrew Bible and the Greek New Testament into Arabic for their own use and as a response to the Qur'an's retelling of Biblical narratives. From the ninth century onward, a steady stream of Jewish and Christian translations of the Hebrew Bible and New Testament crossed communal borders to influence the Islamic world. The Bible in Arabic offers a new frame of reference for the pivotal place of Arabic Bible translations in the religious and cultural interactions between Jews, Christians, and Muslims.
English has become the world's lingua franca. This text of the Holy Injil is designed specifically for English speakers whose religious vocabulary is influenced by the Arabic language and Middle Eastern tradition.
The Holy Injil records the extraordinary life and words of Isa al-Masih--his unique birth, the miracles he performed, his profound and heart-gripping teachings. It tells us how Isa's entire time on earth fulfilled the ancient prophecies of the Holy Scriptures, namely, those which Allah to him be all praise had previously given to the Prophet Musa, King Dawud, and the other prophets to record in the Holy Tawrat, Zabur, and al-Anbiya.
This English translation is done directly from the ancient Greek language source text. That text itself was written soon after Isa al-Masih's life and ascension into heaven. Thanks to the will of Allah, it has been miraculously preserved in thousands of hand-written manuscripts, many of which, whether in the original Greek or translations into ancient languages, date well before A. Some even go back to the second century. This English translation is accompanied by footnotes to help readers, especially those unfamiliar with the Holy Injil.
It includes colored maps depicting the ancient land and travels of Isa al-Masih. And it also includes twenty short articles answering key questions about Isa's life and teachings--the message Allah gave to him for all people of all time.
Quoted in those articles are selections from the Tawrat, Zabur, and al-Anbiya, along with other portions of the Holy Injil. The most translated, the most printed, the most distributed, the most loved, the most read.
It is also the most hated and the most vilified. Either way, to be ignorant of it is to be ignorant of history, of religion, of literature, and ultimately of humanity itself. May Allah bless and encourage you through the life and words of Isa al-Masih!

Author : Robert Alter Publisher : W. Robert Alter's brilliant translation gives us David, the beautiful, musical hero who slays Goliath and, through his struggles with Saul, advances to the kingship of Israel.
But this David is also fully human: an ambitious, calculating man who navigates his life's course with a flawed moral vision. The consequences for him, his family, and his nation are tragic and bloody.
Historical personage and full-blooded imagining, David is the creation of a literary artist comparable to the Shakespeare of the history plays.
This book pertains to the early Arabic translations of the canonical Gospels, and is based on extensive research in over two hundred manuscripts, copied between the eighth and the nineteenth centuries.
The manuscripts were collated from twenty-one different library collections in Europe and the Orient. Each individual manuscript was examined and subsequently grouped into twenty-four families. This foundational work is an invaluable resource for those seeking to learn more about the Arab Christian heritage, the Arabic versions of the Gospels and their influence over the last twelve centuries.
Author : H. The nature of Christ is a very important subject that caused a serious dissension within the Church in the fifth century, in AD. When the theological dialogue started as an effort towards the unity of churches, the subject had to be discussed.
Comments 1 2 3. Would you stop a Spanaird from using the Spanish word Dios? Or maybe you should stop using the word "God. Be contextual. Spend your energies discussing true things about Allah, not arguing about which word you should use. Just my 2 cents. Is there not in Hell a residence for the disbelievers? May God bless you all my dears. The correct word of god in Arabic is Ila or Rab. The name of Allah comes from Quran. And he did not to Moses: Im allah.
So we should take serious the God's name because his name very holy.
