The “Apocalypse of Bahīrā” stands as an important primary source concerning the legendary existence of Sergius Bahīrā. The “Apocalypse of Bahīrā” and the “Apocalypse of Peter” (K) belong to the same literary genre: the apocalyptical-polemical literature of the Christian communities of the Near East after the Arab-Moslem invasion. Consequently, their meaning is not only counter-historical, but also pseudo-theocratic: the narrative, theological and apocalyptical voice of the Christian scribes imitates the omnipotent and omniscient voice of the Abrahamic God in order to counteract the violence of warfare by literary violence, and to substitute an incomprehensible historical reality through the Christian theocratic ideal which reveals the foundation of an “Empire of the Cross” at the end of the historical time. Viewed from this hermeneutical perspective, the Christology and Mariology included in the Qur’ān, as well as the Christian exegesis of the Qur’ān, show the interpenetration or consubstantiality of the divine languages which founded the Abrahamic religious realms.
