Ishmael: Is Isaac the Truly or Only Blessed One?

by Michael Anderson

"Ishmael: Is Isaac the Truly or Only Blessed One?" builds on existing research to examine an important religious issue from the perspectives of historical and literary context. The result is a detailed analysis and reflection of the linguistic form, structure, and movement of early texts, as well as the historical and cultural perspectives of the writers of the texts. "Most people in the Western world know little or nothing about Ishmael and his mother Hagar. They are certainly surprised to learn that there are a series of four passages in Genesis that give very high praise to Ishmael. Michael Anderson has expertly studied and illuminated these passages by shining a bright light on these relatively unknown passages. This book is a must read for those interested in Islam. All who read this book by Anderson will be pleasantly surprised and have their eyes opened. I very highly recommend it." -Dr. James C. Moyer Professor of Religious Studies, Emeritus Missouri Statue University
