Many people do not know that in the Bible’s history there was a non-Jewish Messiah, Cyrus II of Persia, known as “The Great”, an emperor who managed to influence the…
Introduction A flower can sprout from even the most seemingly barren soil. The Hebrew word “Mashiach” meaning Messiah corresponds to “the one who is anointed with oil”, the anointed one,…
How many things people would like to know and understand, yet the Ecclesisate (the Book of the Biblical Canon also called Qoeleth) concludes his verses by stating that “too much…
In Abrahamic religions, the Messiah (Hebrew: מָשִׁיחַ, translit. Māšîaḥ), Christ (Greek: Χριστός, translit. Khristós), or Al-Masih (Arabic: المسيح, ISO 233: mahdī) is the one chosen to lead the World and thereby…
Exodus 20 states that the iniquity of the fathers may reach the third and fourth generation, while Ezekiel 18 declares that a child shall not bear the iniquity of the father. Is this a contradiction? Only apparently. Scripture distinguishes between the consequences of sin, which may pass through generations, and personal moral responsibility before GOD. Understanding this distinction shows why context, language, and the Law are essential for interpreting the Bible correctly.
The Encyclical Magnifica Humanitas addresses some of the defining challenges of our age: artificial intelligence, human dignity, social justice, work, dialogue, and peace. In this series, Abrahamic Study Hall presents the full text together with an interfaith and spiritual commentary aimed at fostering understanding, responsibility, and reconciliation among peoples.
Original Greek text of the Epistle to the Hebrews with Italian and English translations, for an interlinear comparative study grounded in linguistic analysis and textual transmission.
The transition from Yehoshua to Iesus is not merely linguistic, but also theological. This study explores how a single name has generated both continuity and distance between the historical context of Jesus and subsequent interpretations.
The Apocalypse of Elijah is one of the most significant apocalyptic texts of the Egyptian Christian tradition. Preserved in Coptic and dating to the early centuries of Christianity, the document intertwines Jewish prophetic traditions with Christian eschatological theology. Through moral exhortations, visions of the end times, and the narrative of the defeat of the Antichrist, the text reflects the spirituality and messianic expectations of early Christian communities.
Among the New Testament passages that have generated the widest range of theological interpretations, Titus 2, 13 holds a particularly significant place. Its phrasing has played a crucial role in later Christological developments, especially within post-Nicene theology. Yet, when examined through a careful philological lens and situated within its original historical context, the verse reveals a structure far more restrained and consistent with early apostolic language.
In this study, Abrahamic Study Hall presents a full interlinear analysis of Titus 2:13, guiding the reader back to the foundational level of the text: its grammar, syntax, and the Semitic mindset underlying New Testament Greek. The phrase “the glory of the great GOD and of our Savior, Jesus Christ” is examined word by word, demonstrating that the conjunction and shared article do not necessarily imply a single referent. Rather, they reflect a common biblical pattern used to associate distinct figures within a shared salvific framework.

What if Jesus was fully human, as Judaism and Islam have long affirmed — and as early Christianity once acknowledged?
This post explores a controversial statement attributed to Pope Francis by journalist Eugenio Scalfari, which reignites an ancient theological reflection on the true nature of Jesus. Beyond the Vatican’s denial, the question remains open and powerful: could reclaiming the humanity of Christ help bring the Abrahamic faiths closer together? A profound journey through Scripture, tradition, and conscience — not to divide, but to reunite.
Sura 3, Al-‘Imran, takes us to the heart of the Qur’anic message, calling for sincere faith, the continuity of Revelation, and the unity of believers. A chapter that weaves together history, spirituality, and the promise of salvation.
A journey through the profound meaning of “an eye for an eye” in the Torah, the Gospel, and the Koran. From retributive justice to divine mercy: how Revelation guides the spiritual evolution of man.
