| 总结: | Abraham, den der Apostel Paulus »unser aller Vater« (Röm 4,16) nennt, war im antiken Judentum eine zentrale Figur und wurde auch wichtig für das Christentum und den Islam. Die Abraham-Tradition wurde zum Gegenstand von Erzählung und Gegenerzählung, von Erinnerung und Gegenerinnerung. In diesen Prozessen wurde auch die Familie Abrahams als ein Netzwerk von Bedeutungen aufgegriffen, um Opposition, Antithese oder auch Gemeinsamkeiten innerhalb und zwischen den verschiedenen religiösen Bewegungen zum Ausdruck zu bringen. Die Beiträge in diesem Band analysieren die Darstellung und die Rezeption der Familie Abrahams im Judentum, Christentum und Islam. Die behandelten Gegenstände reichen von der Hebräischen Bibel / Altes Testament, über die Schriften des antiken Judentums, das Neue Testament, die rabbinische Literatur, Kirchenväter, mittelalterliche jüdische Exegese bis hin zu einem Reisebericht nach Mekka aus dem 12. Jahrhundert.InhaltsübersichtLukas Bormann: Introduction Part I: Abraham's Family in the Old Testament Konrad Schmid: Remembering and Reconstructing Abraham: Abraham's Family and the Literary History of the Pentateuch – Antti Laato: The Abraham Story in Genesis and the Reigns of David and Solomon – Magnar Kartveit: Abraham and Joseph in Samaritan Tradition – Lotta Valve: The »Wooing of Rebekah« and the Methodological Rift between Tradition History and Reception History Part II: Abraham's Family in Ancient Jewish Literature Jacques T.A.G.M. van Ruiten: Abraham's Family in the Book of Jubilees – Aliyah El Mansy: »He is perfect, he is a true man!« (Jub. 27:17): Constructions of Masculinities in Abraham's Family – Jesper Høgenhaven: Abraham and his Family in Qumran Biblical Exegesis – Michael Becker: Abraham and the Sacrifice of Isaac in Early Jewish and Christian Exegesis: Conceptual Patterns in Development – Christian Noack: Abraham's Family in Philo Part III: Abraham's Family in the New Testament Lukas Bormann: Abraham as »Forefather« and his Family in Paul – Angela Standhartinger: Member of Abraham's Family?

The Abraham tradition is an issue of narrative and counter-narrative, memory and counter-memory. Moreover, Abraham's family is brought in as a network of meaning to express opposition, antithesis or common ground within and between different religious movements. The contributions to this volume discuss the presentation and reception of Abraham's family in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The topics cover Hebrew Bible/Old Testament, Second Temple writings, New Testament, Rabbinic literature, Greek, Latin and Syriac church fathers, as well as Jewish medieval interpretation and a twelfth-century Arabic travel report of a pilgrimage to Mecca.Survey of contentsLukas Bormann: Introduction Part I: Abraham's Family in the Old Testament Konrad Schmid: Remembering and Reconstructing Abraham: Abraham's Family and the Literary History of the Pentateuch – Antti Laato: The Abraham Story in Genesis and the Reigns of David and Solomon – Magnar Kartveit: Abraham and Joseph in Samaritan Tradition – Lotta Valve: The »Wooing of Rebekah« and the Methodological Rift between Tradition History and Reception History Part II: Abraham's Family in Ancient Jewish Literature Jacques T.A.G.M. van Ruiten: Abraham's Family in the Book of Jubilees – Aliyah El Mansy: »He is perfect, he is a true man!« (Jub. 27:17): Constructions of Masculinities in Abraham's Family – Jesper Høgenhaven: Abraham and his Family in Qumran Biblical Exegesis – Michael Becker: Abraham and the Sacrifice of Isaac in Early Jewish and Christian Exegesis: Conceptual Patterns in Development – Christian Noack: Abraham's Family in Philo Part III: Abraham's Family in the New Testament Lukas Bormann: Abraham as »Forefather« and his Family in Paul – Angela Standhartinger: Member of Abraham's Family?
