520 1 $a"In different ways, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam all trace their beginnings to the man Abraham. Though also pivotal in the story, his two wives - the founding mothers Hagar and Sarah - have throughout history received far less attention. But this book changes that. It focuses on Hagar, Sarah, and their children." "Moving from an examination of the traditions that have emerged from ancient and medieval sources to contemporary questions and appropriations of the Hagar and Sarah story, these outstanding scholars provide an insightful look into a story that is foundational to these three great world religions - and an important entree into interreligious discussion and understanding."--BOOK JACKET.
