description This article investigates the written sources and visual representations of Abraham's iconoclasm, a theme primarily explored by Judaism and Islam. The sparse iconography across centuries and territories reflects the cultural context of each tradition but converges in emphasizing the supremacy of monotheism over idolatry and the didactic value of the narrative for different communities. The study, therefore, highlights the pedagogical significance attributed to this passage over time.

The sparse iconography across centuries and territories reflects the cultural context of each tradition but converges in emphasizing the supremacy of monotheism over idolatry and the didactic value of the narrative for different communities. The study, therefore, highlights the pedagogical significance attributed to this passage over time. Este artigo investiga as fontes escritas e representações visuais da iconoclastia de Abraão, uma história explorada, principalmente, pelo Judaísmo e pelo Islamismo. A iconografia esparsa ao longo dos séculos e territórios reflete o contexto cultural de cada tradição, mas converge em enfatizar a supremacia do monoteísmo sobre a idolatria e o valor didático da narrativa para diferentes comunidades. O estudo, portanto, destaca a importância pedagógica atribuída a essa passagem ao longo dos séculos.
