Judaism, Christianity, and Islam share common biblical and cultural roots, yet have developed distinct theological and scriptural traditions. EHJ 2026 brings together scholars examining how these three religions interpret shared biblical texts, the concept of divine names and prophecy across traditions, and how ancient Jewish, Christian, and Islamic sources engage with biblical material. Sessions explore both the continuities and the theological differences that emerged as these traditions developed.
