{"product_id":"the-concept-of-faith-in-catharina-rachik-9783112232750","title":"The Concept of Faith in Judaism, Christianity and Islam","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis volume examines the concept of faith in the three monotheistic traditions--Judaism, Christianity, and Islam--through close readings of sacred texts, theological reflection, and historical development. While the Hebrew term \u003cem\u003eemunah\u003c\/em\u003e, the Greek \u003cem\u003epistis\u003c\/em\u003e, and the Arabic \u003cem\u003eīmān\u003c\/em\u003e differ in semantic nuance and theological usage, they all express a fundamental human disposition of trust, commitment, and orientation toward the divine. The Jewish tradition emphasizes \u003cem\u003eemunah\u003c\/em\u003e as steadfastness and covenantal reliability, deeply embedded in communal memory and liturgical practice. Christian theology understands \u003cem\u003epistis\u003c\/em\u003e as both personal trust in Christ and assent to revealed truth, shaped by doctrinal traditions and ecclesial interpretation. In Islam, \u003cem\u003eīmān\u003c\/em\u003e is a rich and multilayered concept that integrates inner conviction, verbal affirmation, and righteous action. Together, the three contributions demonstrate how faith functions not merely as belief but as an embodied, lived, and ethically charged dimension of religious life. The volume offers critical insights into shared structures and enduring differences, providing a valuable contribution to interreligious understanding and theological discourses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Catharina Rachik\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3112232755\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783112232750\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e de Gruyter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/06\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.04lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.63d","brand":"Catharina Rachik","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48659723190527,"sku":"9783112232750","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-concept-of-faith-in-catharina-rachik-9783112232750","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
