It reflects the author's immersion in the language, religion, and culture of the Middle East, demonstrating how meaningful the biblical text becomes when a broad background of study and analysis is permitted to illuminate the text. Western readers will gain an array of new insights from this volume and will be fascinated by the author's nuances of interpretation. The author's analysis shows how the cultural background of Arabic and Muslim theology affects the interpretation of these parables.  aBible -- Luke, XV -- Criticism, interpretation, etc4 uhttps://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/ImageCover/2021/12/17/_76107507_140.jpgyCover Image
