Description
Unbinding the Binding of Isaac is an anthology of three faiths' interpretations of the Genesis 22:1-19 story.
The various exegeses of this story have been mined by the Jewish, Islamic, and Christian faiths for a protracted period of time.
The "Aqedah," as the binding story is known universally, stimulates the interests and imaginations of theologians, linguists, poets, historians, and artists of various skills and stripes.
The Aqedah continues to stimulate inquiry and application to modern situations.
Unbinding the Binding of Isaac is at once ancient and modern in its scope, purpose, and relevance to scholarly inquiry regarding this ongoing debate.
