Christianity, Judaism, and Islam are often described as Abrahamic faiths, since all three religious traditions trace their faith back to a person known as Abraham, Avraham or Ibrahim.
This course explores the three major monotheistic traditions, focusing on both similarities and differences. In particular, it addresses the interplay between Christians, Jews and Muslims in history as well as today.
Students taking this course are offered to go on a study tour to Jerusalem, a holy city to three religious traditions. (April 27-May 7, 2017: the 27th and 7th are travel days; hence, the course commences in the morning on April 28 and ends in the evening on the 6th). This course is given in cooperation with the Swedish Theological Institute in Jerusalem. The students pay for their travel expenses; the costs for lodging, excursions, teaching, and most meals are covered by Lund University and by a grant from the foundation Lunds Missionssällskap.
In late January all students will receive an e-mail, to which they must reply at their earliest convenience. Having received a confirmation that they have been granted a scholarship, the students are asked to book and to pay for their airfare to and from Tel Aviv airport (TLV). Students with a passport from the European Union usually do not need a visa. Please contact an Israeli Embassy if you have questions about visa etc.
