亞伯拉罕
亞伯拉罕,初名亞伯蘭,又作亞巴郎,基督、伊斯蘭、猶太等教,並奉為先祖。[一]猶太教以亞伯拉罕肇立件約。件約,謂希伯來人之連於神也。基督教以亞伯拉罕為信者初模,猶太、異邦皆然。伊斯蘭教以為屬先知統序,始阿丹、至於穆罕默德者。[二]《創世記》所述,瓞冑、壤境也。亞伯拉罕受神召,去他拉父宅,之神故所許以迦南、今許以亞伯拉罕及厥冑處。神許以實瑪利以大邦,而以撒以嗣亞伯拉罕。以實瑪利,亞伯拉罕、夏甲子也。以撒,亞伯拉罕、薩拉子也。薩拉,亞伯拉罕女弟也,同母所出。亞伯拉罕置墓地於希伯崙(即麥比拉穴也),以葬薩拉,遂得有地之以;其胤也,以撒娶於同宗,迦南人遂無從繼旃。後亞伯拉罕續絃,娶基土拉,有子六人;迨亞伯拉罕歿,葬比薩拉,以撒獨承「其貲」,他子唯予「禮」而已。(語出《創世紀》二五:五—八。)[三]亞伯拉罕之事,其年不可考焉;三族長之代,公論以為與出埃及、士師世,皆後世所造撰,非實有之世也。[四] 學者多以波斯世初(西元前六世紀),以色列人為巴比倫囚,猶太地主之居猶大者以「皇考亞伯拉罕」據地者與流民歸而以摩西、出埃及事索地者相爭所作說為正。[五]
