Nathan der Weise
**Nathan der Weise** (Nathan the Wise) is a drama by Gotthold Ephraim Lessing, published in 1779, set in Jerusalem during the Third Crusade. The play promotes religious tolerance through its famous "ring parable," in which a Jewish merchant, a Muslim sultan, and a Christian knight learn that no one can definitively claim their faith is the one true religion.
