Arabs in the Shadow of Israel by Tony Maalouf

Arabs in the Shadow of Israel by Tony Maalouf

A masterful piece of scholarship on a much neglected topic.

--Kenneth E. Bailey
Professor Emeritus of Middle Eastern New Testament Studies
Tantur Ecumenical Institute, Jerusalem

Western Christianity's longstanding support of Israel has certainly, but unintentionally, nurtured a bias against Arab people, traditionally tied to Abraham's first son, Ishmael. Lebanese Christian Tony Maalouf contends that this perspective differs dramatically from the biblical portrayal of Ishmael and the nations that have sprung from him.

By tracing the role of the Arab people throughout Scripture and prophetically into the final moments of history, Maalouf provides a much-needed understanding of a crucial contemporary issue and challenges Christians to think biblically about the complex issues of the Arab-Israeli conflict.

A rare and extraordinarily helpful book. . . . One of the most thought-provoking, scholarly yet readable books I have seen.

--Paige Patterson

An excellent study for any believer interested in the Middle East and the Arab world.

Maalouf tackles the often contentious subject of Arab-Jewish relations with insight, kindness, and clarity.
