languages,
English and
Persian are daughter languages of their common ancestral
Proto-Indo-European, and still share many
cognate words of similar forms. Examples of these include: English (
mother) and Persian (
mādar), English (
father) and Persian (
padar), English (
daughter) and Persian (
dokhtar), English (
brother) and Persian (
barādar) and English (
name) and Persian (
nām). However, this article will be concerned with
loanwords, that is, words in English that derive from Persian, either directly, or more often, from one or more intermediary languages.
Many words of
Persian origin have made their way into the
English language through different, often circuitous, routes. Some of them, such as "
paradise", date to cultural contacts between the
Persians and the ancient Greeks or Romans and through Greek and Latin found their way to English. Persian as the second important language of Islam has influenced many languages in the Islamic world, and its words have found their way beyond that region.

Origins of the narrative
Abraham's name is apparently very ancient, as the tradition found in Genesis no longer understands its original meaning (probably "Father is exalted" – the meaning offered in Genesis 17:5, "Father of a multitude", is a
popular etymology).
[7] The story, like those of the other patriarchs, most likely had a substantial oral prehistory.
[8] At some stage the oral traditions became part of the written tradition of the
Pentateuch; a majority of scholars believe this stage belongs to the Persian period, roughly 520–320 BCE.
[9]The mechanisms by which this came about remain unknown,
[10]but there are currently two important hypotheses.
[11] The first, called Persian Imperial authorisation, is that the post-Exilic community devised the Torah as a legal basis on which to function within the Persian Imperial system; the second is that Pentateuch was written to provide the criteria for who would belong to the post Exilic Jewish community and to establish the power structures and relative positions of its various groups, notably the priesthood and the lay "elders".
[11]
Nevertheless, the completion of the Torah and its elevation to the centre of post-Exilic Judaism was as much or more about combining older texts as writing new ones – the final Pentateuch was based on existing traditions.
[12] In
Ezekiel 33:24, written during the Exile (i.e., in the first half of the 6th century BCE), Ezekiel, an exile in Babylon, tells how those who remained in Judah are claiming ownership of the land based on inheritance from Abraham; but the prophet tells them they have no claim because they don't observe Torah.
[13] Isaiah 63:16 similarly testifies of tension between the people of Judah and the returning post-Exilic Jews (the "
gôlâ"), stating that God is the father of Israel and that Israel's history begins with the Exodus and not with Abraham.
[14] The conclusion to be inferred from this and similar evidence (e.g.,
Ezra-Nehemiah), is that the figure of Abraham must have been preeminent among the great landowners of Judah at the time of the Exile and after, serving to support their claims to the land in opposition to those of the returning exiles.
