520 | |a From the Biblical creation narratives, sanctity of human life is the major reason for human existence. The process of life is sustained through the means of procreation and preservation of the essence of human life. In point of fact, preservation and respect for sanctity of human life have become topical issues in human history. Among the Jews, there was oppression of the aliens, fatherless, shedding of innocent blood and injustice. This could be interpreted as disrespect for human life, irreverence, senseless killings, human sacrifices and other social maladies ravaging the society. This research work examined a critical study of the doctrine of sanctity of human life in Judaism and Christianity in relation to Nigerian situation. The research method adopted for the paper was historical and theological, because it addressed an age-long problem that is related to God, comparatively in Judaic and Christian perspectives. The study argues that human life is sacred from womb to tomb. And in that light, human life is expected to be treated with respect and reverence if society is to be safe for all. | ||
