Sejarah agama

Dari Wikipedia bahasa Indonesia, ensiklopedia bebas

Sejarah agama merujuk kepada catatan tertulis dari pengalaman dan gagasan agama manusia. Periode sejarah agama dimulai dengan penemuan penulisan pada sekitar 5.200 tahun lampau (3200 SM).[1] Agama dari zaman prasejarah melibatkan kajian keyakinan agama yang ada sebelum kemajuan catatan tertulis. Seseorang dapat juga mengkaji kronologi agama-agama komparatif melalui linimasa agama. Penulisan memainkan peran besar dalam teks-teks agama yang terstandardisasi tanpa memandang waktu atau tempat, dan memudahkan pengingatan doa dan perintah ilahi. Kasus Alkitab melibatkan pengumpulan berbagai penjelasan lisan yang diturunkan selama berabad-abad.[2][3]
