WORLD HISTORY

Detailed explanation-1: -Three of the world’s major religions–the monotheist traditions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam–were all born in the Middle East and are all inextricably linked to one another. Christianity was born from within the Jewish tradition, and Islam developed from both Christianity and Judaism.

Detailed explanation-2: -Judaism originated with the biblical patriarch Abraham (approx 1800 BCE). Abraham established a covenant with God that was confirmed with the reception of the Torah (the Law including the Ten Commandments) from God through Moses to the Jewish people at Mount Sinai approximately 3, 320 years ago.

Detailed explanation-3: -The term born again has become widely associated with the evangelical Christian renewal since the late 1960s, first in the United States and then around the world.
