The Quran and the Bible have been called "intertwined scriptures" due to the Qurans frequent invocation of biblical narratives and figures. But what is the history of Muslims exegetical engagement with the biblical text? Through a comprehensive survey of more than 170 Quran commentaries, Samuel Ross traces the longitudinal history of the Bible in tafsr. Offering detailed case studies and rich in historical context, Rosss narrative culminates in the remarkable late-nineteenth and early-twentieth-century biblical turn. Global in scope, this development has not only generated new Muslim views of the Bible but even new interpretations of the Quran itself. This monograph has been awarded the annual BRAIS - De Gruyter Prize in the Study of Islam and the Muslim World.
