God

The supreme being and creator of the universe in all three Abrahamic faiths. While sharing common roots, each tradition has developed distinct theological understandings.

In Judaism

God is one, indivisible, and incorporeal. The Shema declares: “Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one” (Deuteronomy 6:4). God revealed himself to Moses at the burning bush with the name “I AM WHO I AM” (YHWH). Jewish tradition emphasizes God’s covenant relationship with Israel and his attributes of justice and mercy.

In Christianity

Christianity affirms monotheism while teaching the doctrine of the Trinity: God as three persons (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) in one divine essence. Jesus is understood as God incarnate, the second person of the Trinity who became human for salvation.

In Islam

Allah is the one God, absolutely singular (tawhid), without partners or equals. The Quran declares: “Say, He is Allah, [who is] One, Allah, the Eternal Refuge. He neither begets nor is born, Nor is there to Him any equivalent” (Surah 112). The 99 Names of Allah describe his attributes.
