The story of Abraham, the first Jew, portrayed as two lives lived by one person, paralleling the contradictions in Judaism throughout its history
 
In this new biography of Abraham, Judaism’s foundational figure, Anthony Julius offers an account of the origins of a fundamental struggle within Judaism between skepticism and faith, critique and affirmation, thinking for oneself and thinking under the direction of another. Julius describes Abraham’s life as two separate lives, and as a version of the collective life of the Jewish people.
 
Abraham’s first life is an early adulthood of questioning the polytheism of his home city of Ur Kasdim until its ruler, Nimrod, condemns him to death and he is rescued, he believes, by a miracle. In his second life, Abraham’s focus is no longer on critique but rather on conversion and on his leadership over his growing household, until God’s command that he sacrifice his son Isaac. This test, the Akedah (or “Binding”), ends with another miracle, as he believes, but as Julius argues, it is also a catastrophe for Abraham. The Akedah represents for him an unsurpassed horizon—and in Jewish life thereafter. This book focuses on Abraham as leader of the first Jewish project, Judaism, and the unresolvable, insurmountable crisis that the Akedah represents—both in his leadership and in Judaism itself.

Recenzijos

With his extraordinary new book, Abraham: The First Jew, the British jurist and historian Anthony Julius provides a new dualistic taxonomy that deserves to find its way into scholarship and biblical discourse.David Wolpe, Commentary

A bold new biography.Simon Rocker, Jewish Chronicle

Julius has written an important and original book. In just 392 pages, he has offered us a profound intellectual exploration of the forces that are shaping Jewish identity in our age.Alan Bekhor, The Article

This brilliantly original and often deeply moving book tells the story of Abraham so as to set out a narrative of faith itselfthe relation of faith to reason, the abiding tension between claimed conviction and inescapable or tragic questioning, the way in which, like Abraham, we may be both residents and aliens in the world of discourse about God. A unique and searching masterpiece.Rowan Williams, theologian and poet, University of Cambridge

Anthony Juliuss Abraham is beautifully written, provocative, and wise.Martha C. Nussbaum, University of Chicago

Fascinating and profound, scholarly and playful, philosophical and aesthetic, Anthony Juliuss Abraham is an original and compelling hybrid that brings Abraham to life and through him discusses the nature of faith and his own personal philosophy.Simon Sebag Montefiore, author of Jerusalem: The Biography

Learned, rich in revelation, beautifully articulated and researched. In an age when the phrase the Abrahamic religions is tossed about with ease, it is more than fascinating to follow Anthony Juliuss meditations on the man himself.Stephen Fry, author of Mythos

Anthony Julius is deputy chairman of the international law firm Mishcon de Reya and a professor in the Faculty of Laws, University College London. He is the author of T. S. Eliot, Anti-Semitism and Literary Form, among other books. He lives in London, UK.
