Description
About The Book: The Foreign Vocabulary of the Quran by Arthur Jeffery (1938) explores the non-Arabic words in the Quran, tracing their origins to languages like Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek, and Persian. Jeffery categorizes these terms, examining their etymologies and historical context in the 7th-century cultural and religious environment of Arabia. Key examples include Inj?l (Gospel, from Greek), Tawrah (Torah, from Hebrew), and Zab?r (Psalms, from Hebrew). Jeffery's work provides crucial insights into the Quran’s linguistic development and its links to earlier religious texts, establishing a foundation for future scholarship in Quranic linguistics and interreligious studies.
