| Description |
From Manarchy to Hellenism is a potpourri of stories common to both Biblical and Islmaic tradition. THis volume of The Bible: An Islamic Perspective series begins with the story of the strange prohet Elijah and his confrontations with Ahab and Jezebel. We then examine the Biblical and Quranic versions of the stroy of Jonah. Though Nebuchadnezzar is not mentioned in the Quran, his destruction of the Temple is. As a postscript to this story, we look at the story of Habakkuk. We next consider the Ezra controversy before turning to the Islamic story of Dhul- Qarnayn, though by many to be identified with Alecander the Great, thus brnging us up to Hellenism. this invovles discussions of God and Magog, Daris the Great, Cyrus the Great, and others. Finally, we turn to question of the identity of another sage well known in the Islamic worl, Luqman the Wise. Is he Balaam, Aesop, or someone else? A few words about the Old Testament in general conclude the volume.

| Something to Ask... | O Allah!
I seek refuge in You from hunger; surely, it is the worst companion. And I seek refuge in You from treachery; surely, it is a bad inner trait. |
