Autorenporträt
Abraham Mitrie Rihbany (1869–1944) was a distinguished author and theologian, best known for his cross-cultural work 'The Syrian Christ', which draws an insightful comparison between the customs of Eastern societies and the biblical accounts of the life of Jesus Christ. Born in what is modern-day Lebanon, Rihbany emigrated to the United States in the late 19th century. Educated in the traditions of Eastern Orthodoxy and well-versed in the customs of his homeland, he brought a unique and rich perspective to Western biblical scholarship. In 'The Syrian Christ', Rihbany examines the life of Jesus through the lens of Syrian customs, arguing that Western readers can gain a deeper understanding of the Bible by becoming familiar with the Eastern context in which the biblical stories took place. This comparative analysis provided a bridge between Eastern traditions and Western Christian practice and was well-received for its depth and clarity. His contributions to the field of theology and cross-cultural understanding are a testament to his keen insight and his ability to articulate complex cultural and religious ideas to a broad audience. Rihbany's literary style is characterized by its eloquence and educational approach, aiming to illuminate the common ground between diverse cultures.
