Without Syllable or Sound: The World’s Sacred Scriptures in the Baha’i Faith

This volume explores the Holy Scriptures of the world’s great religions—Buddhism, Hinduism, Christianity, Judaism, and Islam — from a Bahá’í perspective. It’s an inspiring reaffirmation of the unity of all religions.

Michael Sours argues for the need for all believers to affirm the validity and importance of all of the world’s Sacred Scriptures. He discusses at length Bahá’u’lláh’s defense of the Bible, investigates the Bahá’í teachings concerning the Jewish and Muslim texts, and the texts of those often referred to as Eastern religions.

It includes a record of a conversation that ‘Abdu’l-Bahá had with a group of Christian professors and theological students in Paris in 1913.
