The three Abrahamic religions trace their common patriarch to Abraham, as referred to by Jews and Christians, and Ibrahim as referred to by Muslims. The origin of all three religions was in the West Asian region around Israel/Jerusalem. The West Asian region has been a flash point from prehistoric times and continues to be so even in the present times. The reason for this starts from the Middle Period of 2200 BCE till the 21st century, a span of over 4000 years, multiple nations, religions, ethnicities and races had been battling out their differences and viewpoints almost continuously, with few periods of peace and stability in between.
For ease of understanding, the author has divided the book into six parts. The first briefly deals with genesis to modern period, the second with the contradictory claims and counterclaims of the three religions, the third with the holy books and scriptures of Judaism and Christianity, the fourth with the phenomenal survival and growth of modern Israel against heavy odds, the fifth with a historical timeline of Judaism and Israel and the last with an itinerary of a nine-day pilgrimage tour of the holy lands of Jews and Christians.
