EVIDENCE #1: The name “Hira” mentioned in the Greek text of Isaiah 29:12 (proof of manipulation with the word χιρα in Codex Sinaiticus)

Post 1. Introduction

As-Salam aleikum wa rahmatullah,

Muslims for quite a long time has interpreted Isaiah 29:12 as a typological prefiguration of Prophet Mohammed (SAAW) and specifically of his first revelation that took the form of a nocturnal vision when he slept while being inside the cave called "the cave of Hira" (ghar Hira), located in a mountain called by that name (Jabal Hira). However, the evidence that Muslims provided for this claim was yet too scanty and built only on Islamic sources. In consequence, Muslims have some difficulties to defend the validity of their position in polemic with Christian apologists like David Wood or Sam Shamoun who demand to read Isaiah 29:12 in its context. This six-part series of extensive research, which is in constant progress, will confirm with profound insight the legitimacy of the Muslim claim since in Isaiah 29, there are many, still recognized details that - after expounding them properly - bears a clear testimony of considerable importance relating to the first moment and exact location where the future mission of Prophet Mohammed (SAAW) would start. Therefore, I would like to introduce some of these still not known and unexplored details that are worthy to discuss. Below are some thoughts concerning Isaiah 29:11-12 taken from my up-coming book written originally in Polish under the title: "Znaki i Proroctwa Biblijne: Starotestamentowe Przepowiednie o Mekkańskim Proroku".

Before we enter into the topic, we need to establish few important facts about the reliability of the Bible. It is widely accepted among biblical researchers (including conservatives) that the Bible, in the form we have it today, is a product of constant editing from the earliest stages of its composition to its definitive canonization. One of the serious problems is associated with the chronology of genealogies and events described by the Old Testament writers. For example, numbers in chrono-genealogies of Genesis 5 and 11 were purposely manipulated in specific ways causing date inflation and downstream chronological difficulties (See L. Cosner & R. Carter, Textual Traditions and Biblical Chronology, JC 29/2 (2015), pp. 99-105). Furthermore,, according to the contemporary biblical scholarship dealing with the textual criticism, there is no such thing as chronological order of biblical narratives. Certain portions of the text have suffered a deep scribal rearrangement. For instance, there are clear discontinuities in the narratological chain, noted by scholars in various parts of Deutero-Isaiah corpus, that makes the relationship between the texts irrational (See e.g. Continuity and Discontinuity: Chronological and Thematic Development in Isaiah 40–66, eds. Lena-Sofia Tiemeyer & Hans M. Barstad, Göttingen: Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht, 2014). This sort of redaction concerning the chronology of biblical narratives is by no means unusual, and it has already found evidence through implementing an empirical method (e.g. Archaeology). According to David A. Glatt, these editorial changes in narrative's chronology, are to be divided into two categories:

(1) accounts of the same event from both before and after the displacement occurred;
(2) textual or historical data which point to an event's original setting and with which the person responsible for displacing the event must have been acquainted.

Motivations for the empirically-derived displacements fall into three main categories: ideological, thematic, and exegetical (For more, see Glatt’s paper thesis under the title Chronological displacement in Biblical and related literature, [Ph.D. Thesis], University of Pennsylvania, 1991). Recent scholars got enough proof that the author of the Book of Isaiah (who according to a certain group of scholars was paradoxically not even Isaiah!) have interrupted or modified the original chronologic sequence of biblical data (i.e. the right placement of a particular narrative). It seems that the editor who restructured the original text, picked up various stories and then blended them with others – not always in their chronological order - to create his own background information which in turn would correspond to his theological-political purposes (whatever his belief was). Redactional-Critical studies identifies some cases in the Hebrew Bible where syntactic construction of the storyline is violated by redactor’s disruptive information embedded in the text (e.g. fictional background) called otherwise a “parenthesis” (See G. E. Lier, Disruption in Biblical Narrative as Mental Stimulant for Inner-Biblical Interpretation, JS 22, 2013, pp. 522-536; T. Zewi, Parenthesis in Biblical Hebrew, SSLL 50, Leiden: Brill, 2007). Also, biblical scholars now fully recognize the fact that the text of Isaiah, as well as of other Old Testament books (e.g. Leviticus, Numbers, Samuel, Kings, Jeremiah etc.), were gradually expanded by incorporating new materials (See Evidence of Editing: Growth and Change of Texts in the Hebrew Bible, eds. R. Müller, J. Pakkala & Bas ter H. Romeny, Atlanta, GA: Scholars Press, 2014). Interpolations not only artificially lengthen the original material but also disturb, inter alia, the natural rhythm the poem or verse. Inappropriately edited text often becomes factually incoherent with the rest of the text and this leads to many contradictions. Such disharmony is not limited to one book but it applies to the whole Bible. The tragic thing, however, is that most – if not all – prophecies were rewritten over and over again which eventually caused a separation from their proper places and in effect, they hold no longer the original contextual framework in relation to the previous narrative setting intended by the first author (See Changes in Scripture: Rewriting and Interpreting Authoritative Traditions in the Second Temple Period, eds. H. von Weissenberg, J. Pakkala & M. Marttila, BZAW 419, Berlin: W. de Gruyter, 2011; with reference to our topic see especially: Reinhard G. Kratz, "Rewriting Isaiah: The Case of Isaiah 28-31," in: Prophecy and Prophets in Ancient Israel: Proceedings of the Oxford Old Testament Seminar, ed. J. Day, London, NY: T & T Clark International, 2010, pp. 245-266).

Regarding the actual text formation and literary structure of Isaiah 29 (which is our main issue), Daniel J. Stulec, another biblical scholar, in his doctoral thesis, says that Isaiah’s sections divided as 29:1-14 and 29:15-24 "have almost certainly come together through a complex process of composition, expansion, and redaction." (See Daniel J. Stulec, History and Hope: The Agrarian Wisdom of Isaiah 28-35, [Ph.D. Thesis], Duke University, 2017, p. 14).

Facing all of this stuff (I just mentioned only a few), we have no idea what was the original autograph of the biblical scriptures. That's why scholars today from all around the world are obliged to work so hard to reconstruct at least the earliest form of the biblical text since the original one is lost, and perhaps will never be recovered. I have quoted these scholarly references partly in response to those self-opinionated Christian and Jewish apologists who still blindly believe in the infallibility of the Bible, those who thinks they know without a doubt(?) what was the original form of its content and how its text should be interpreted by reading from the context. As far as I know, some Christian apologists engaged in polemic with Muslims , cites e.g. Mark 7:5-7 as a proof that Isaiah 29:11-12 is talking about a punishment or judgment against Israelite rebellions. However, the widely held view is that these passages are Markan redaction and were deliberately adapted for the resent context, which means that they are not historically related to Isaiah 29:13. Moreover, the general consensus amongst biblical scholars is that Isaiah 29, verses 9-16, compose of three short independent sayings: vv. 9-10, vv. 13-14, vv. 15-16 none of which was interconnected with vv. 11-12, but rather they were interlocked later with each other (See Martin J. O’Kane, Isaiah 28-33: A Literary and Contextual Analysis, [Ph.D. Thesis], University of Edinburgh, 1989, pp. 124-140). Christian apologists will be surprised also that even early Catholic authorities interpreted these verses in a totally different manner (See M. van Esbroeck, 'Une exégèse rare d'Isaïe 29, 11-12 conservée arménien”, in: Armenia and the Bible. Papers Presented to the International Symposium held at Heidelberg, July 16-19, 1990, ed. C. Burchard, [UPATS 12], Atlanta, GA: Scholars Press, 1993), pp. 73-78). I will deal later especially with those apologists who insidiously argue that if Isaiah 29:12 speaks of Mohammed (SAAW) than he is a false prophet since the context is about a bad and disobedient people etc.

Post 2. Analysis

The purpose of the introduction in the Post 1. was to show for the reader that the subject we are dealing with is very complicated and not infrequently perplexed. Here, we will examine Isaiah 29:11-12 from a Muslim hermeneutical approach that allows for a favorable interpretation. First of all, there are some significant differences between the Masoretic Text (MT) and the Septuagint (LXX). Let's do then some quick comparison of the Hebrew and Greek texts along with their English translations:

Isaiah 29:11-12 according to LXX (Rahlf’s Critical Edition)

29:11 καὶ ἔσονται ὑμῖν πάντα τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα ὡς οἱ λόγοι τοῦ βιβλίου τοῦ ἐσφραγισμένου τούτου, ὃ ἐὰν δῶσιν αὐτὸ ἀνθρώπῳ ἐπισταμένῳ γράμματα λέγοντες Ἀνάγνωθι ταῦτα· καὶ ἐρεῖ Οὐ δύναμαι ἀναγνῶναι, ἐσφράγισται γάρ.
29:12 καὶ δοθήσεται τὸ βιβλίον τοῦτο εἰς χεῖρας ἀνθρώπου μὴ ἐπισταμένου γράμματα, καὶ ἐρεῖ αὐτῷ Ἀνάγνωθι τοῦτο· καὶ ἐρεῖ Οὐκ ἐπίσταμαι γράμματα

English Translation by L.C.L. Brenton (1851):

29:11 "And all these things shall be to you as the words of this sealed book, which if they shall give to a learned man, saying, Read this, he shall then say, I cannot read it, for it is sealed.
29:12 And this book shall be given into the hands of a man that is unlearned, and one shall say to him, Read this; and he shall say, I am not learned."

Isaiah 29:11-12 according to MT (Codex Leningrad):

וַתְּהִי לָכֶם חָזוּת הַכֹּל כְּדִבְרֵי הַסֵּפֶר הֶֽחָתוּם אֲשֶֽׁר יִתְּנוּ אֹתוֹ אֶל יוֹדֵעַ הספר לֵאמֹר קְרָא נָא זֶה וְאָמַר לֹא אוּכַל כִּי חָתוּם הֽוּא	29:11
וְנִתַּן הַסֵּפֶר עַל (?) אֲשֶׁר לֹֽא יָדַע סֵפֶר לֵאמֹר קְרָא נָא זֶה וְאָמַר לֹא יָדַעְתִּי סֵֽפֶר	29:12

English Translation by King James Version (1769):

29:11 "And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I cannot; for it is sealed:
29:12 And the book is delivered to him (?) that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned."

The Masoretic Text (MT) of Isaiah 29:12 drop at least two words in relation to the Septuagint (LXX):

1. "hands" = χειραϲ (cheiras)
2. "man" = ανθρωπου (anthropos)

One can easily notice the absence of these two words while comparing the English translations of Isaiah 29:11-12 according to MT and LXX (I have indicated their omission with question mark in red colour). The first mentioned word and its potential implications is the centre of our present study, while the second word will be discussed in the section titled Evidence #4: "The Illiterate one is a salvific figure?" - the mysterious meaning of ανθρωπου (Anthropos) in the Greek version of Balaam’s Third and Fourth Oracles. If we go deeper into the textual pluralism, we will find some Hebrew manuscripts that preserve more additional words omitted by MT (Codex Leningrad) as well as numerous different variants of readings. For example, one of such omissions by MT-CL can be noted in Isaiah 29:11 where MS no.4 (from Kennicot’s collection) preserves אובל לקרות (oval likrot), i.e. literally "bring [it], read it" (See Variae Lectiones apparatus in: B. Kennicot, Vetus Testamentum Hebraicum, vol. 2, Oxonii: Clarendoniana, 1776, p. 35. Available here: https://archive.org/details/vetustestamentum02kenn/page/34) although in the case of אובל (oval) it is not certain since these additional variants are not spelled with vowels punctation. Similarly, the LXX text of Isaiah 29:11 also has αναγνωναι (anagnonai), i.e. "read it" (omitted by MT-CL) which testifies to the Hebrew לקרות (likrot) from Kennicot’s MS no.4 (read attentively the Greek text in Rahlf’s Critical Edition). These additions that were lost out of the Hebrew version according to MT-CL, were noticed by several classic exegetes like Robert Lowth (See R. Lowth, Isaiah. A New Translation; with Preliminary Dissertations, and Notes, vol. 2 (London: J. Nichols, 1795, p. 210). We will explore these textual variants in another occasion since it demands some time.

Now, if we consult the text of Isaiah 29:12 with LXX version preserved in Codex Sinaiticus, we will uncover something interesting. Below, is given the transcription of the Greek text of Isaiah 29:12 exactly as it appears on the official website of the Codex Sinaiticus (I applied KoineGreek font to make transcription in a manuscript-like style):

και δοθηϲεται το βιβλιον τουτο ειϲ χιραϲ ανθρωπου · μη επιϲταμενου γραμʼματα ˙ και ερι αυτω · αναγνωθι ταυτα και ερι . ουκ αιπιϲταμαι γραμʼματα

The particular Greek word which deserves special attention is χιραϲ (chiras) , later always referred under a normalized text-form in this font χιρα (chira) . We will go now directly to the manuscript to see how this word presents visually. I have framed it with a red rectangle in the image below:

In Codex Sinaiticus, the original writer – scribe B, section Isa 29:9-30:8, folio 53 - obviously wrote first χιρα (chira), but later, the corrector identified by scholars as Cb3, inserted a small epsilon (ε) and sigma (ς) in order to change its meaning from indeclinable feminine proper noun, "Hira" (χιρα), to a plural feminine noun in accusative case, "hands" (χειραϲ). Interestingly, there are plenty of examples of corrections in the text of Codex Sinaiticus. Ultraviolet-light tests on the palimpsest carried by the curators of the British Museum in the mid-1930s allowed researchers to identify at least nine different editors who repeatedly corrected the text over an extended period of time. To distinguish the editors/correctors from each other, scholars marked them consecutively: A, B, C, D and E, each of which has his own individual writing skills, tendencies and motivations (See D. Jongkind, Scribal Habits of Codex Sinaiticus. T&S: CBPL 5, Picataway, NJ: Gorgias Press, 2007). Now, the Cb3 was mainly preoccupied with orthography and legibility and he was correcting prophetic books. This third corrector from C group, however, has generally a bad reputation in the eyes of scholars who carefully investigated Codex Sinaiticus from a palaeographical and codicological perspectives. Milne and Skeat, two renowned assistant keepers in the Department of Manuscripts in British Museum, in their invaluable monograph (which is a priority to every scholar who want to study Sinaiticus), has to say the following about the features of Cb3:

"While Cb3’s main object is to increase the legibility of the text, usually by normalizing the orthography of the original scribe, he possess a certain textual importance as well, for he has frequently erased an addition or substitution by Cb2, and sometimes (but much more rarely) one of Ca. But whether these alterations imply collation with another copy may well be doubted, as the effect in every case is purely negative. So far as our observations go, Cb3 makes practically no positive and original contribution to the text." (See H. J. M. Milne & T. C. Skeat, Scribes and Correctors of the Codex Sinaiticus (London: British Museum, 1938, p. 49.).

What Milne and Skeat are suggesting in the two last sentences is that Cb3 instead to correct errors, he actually deepened them and made things worse. Acknowledging Cb3’s injurious editorship, we will take a closer look at the image where I have indicated his unfortunate insertions:

Codex Sinaiticus was originally written in uncial letters, which means that these two letters of minuscule size, i.e. ε (epsilon) and ς (sigma), were not part of the uncial script. They were evidently added by Cb3, the later corrector belonging to C group. Notice that the electronic transcription of the Greek text, authorized by the editors of the official website of the Sinaiticus Codex, intentionally omits ε (epsilon), apparently recognizing it as non-original "insertion" (but what about sigma?). My first reflections on that was: what is the nature of this textual intervention? Does this step taken by the anonymous Cb3, consisting in adding the fifth and sixth letter (thus changing the physical-graphic form of the word !), suggests a possible attempt to adapt/assimilate the text with later copies and thereby cover up some "uncomfortable" or "unwanted" information that has not been noticed by previous copyists? (Cf. E. Tov, “The Septuagint of Numbers as a Harmonizing Text,” in Die Septuaginta – Geschichte, Wirkung, Relevanz, 6. Internationale Fachtagung veranstaltet von Septuaginta Deutsch (LXX.D), Wuppertal 21.–24. Juli 2016, ed. M. Meiser et al., WUNT 405, Tubingen: Mohr-Siebeck, 2018), pp. 181–201; also Cambry G. Pardee, Scribal Harmonization in Greek Manuscripts of the Synoptic Gospels from the Second to the Fifth Century, Ph.D. Thesis, Loyola University Chicago, 2016). As Constantin von Tischendorf already theorized, the correctors were active during a long period of time, estimating between 400-1200 A.D. (although others have argued that the last changes were made even in the 1800’s!). The corrections from “C” group (designated by the siglum:אc, אcb, אcc, אcc*), he dates to the seventh century (See C. von Tischendorf, Novum Testamentum Graece, vol. 3, ed. Caspar R. Gregory, 8th edition, Lipsiae: J. C. Hinrichs, 1884),p. 346. Available here: https://archive.org/details/novumtestamentum31tisc/page/346). Similarly, according to Scrivener’s opinion, the correctors that are classified to the group “C”, worked in the seventh century, just “before breathings and accents became habitual” (See F.H.A. Scrivener, A full collation of the Codex Sinaiticus with the received text of the New Testament, London: Cambridge University, 1864, p. xxiii [introduction]. Available here: https://archive.org/details/fullcollationofc00scri/page/n29). Frederick G. Kenyon also seems to agree with this statement (See F. G. Kenyon, Our Bible and the Ancient Manuscripts, London: Eyre & Spottiswoode, 1985, p. 125. Available here: https://archive.org/details/ourbibleancien00keny/page/n157). This would indicate that Cb3 was most likely active after the death of Prophet Mohammed (SAAW), and that he edited the text of Codex Sinaiticus when Muslims has conquered Egypt ca. 639-644. In my opinion, the word χιρα (chira) aroused some suspicion among the Christian monks from the Monastery of St. Catherine, where Codex Sinaiticus was kept over centuries. However, I think that at the beginning, the monks were probably not aware of the meaning of this word. But, sooner or later, members of the Coptic community who lived under the Islamic government, must have heard about the story of al-‘Alaq which occurred to Prophet Mohammed (SAAW) in the cave of Hira. When they suddenly realized that Isaiah 29:12 is alluding to that incident, one of them immediately rushed towards the Codex and intervened: his goal was to alter the meaning of the whole context by manipulating with the text as possible as he could (i.e. introducing an additional letters to χιρα in order to eliminate any alternative interpretation of that word).

I have contacted some scholars who work with Greek manuscripts to see what is their opinion on this particular case. Thus, according to one scholar from Germany (Institut für Septuaginta- und biblische Textforschung), at the time when Codex Sinaiticus was copied, the digraph ει and vowel ι were supposedly pronounced the same (another fitting example he gives is ε and αι) and so such errors were conditioned phonetically. He pointed also to another example: namely, the common confusion between 'there' and 'their' and 'they're' that many modern English speakers are susceptible to (especially native speakers).

Anyway, going back to the case of Sinaitic textual-form χιρα (chira), this phenomenon is what they technically call an "iotacism" or sometimes "itacism". It is a phonetic process by which a number of vowels and diphthongs in Ancient Greek (like eta, iota, and epsilon + ei, oi, and ui) converged in pronunciation so they all now sound like [i] iota in Modern Greek (See R. L. Trask, A Dictionary of Phonetics and Phonology, London, NY: Routledge, 1996, p. 186). The spelling of the Greek χιρα (chira) and χιραϲ (chiras) would be regarded as a mere orthographic error – at least according to their own criteria - and is extremely common in Sinaiticus, however as we will see later, this is not the case here. Firstly, the subject of “iotacism” is problematic and uncertain since there are great divergencies amongst scholars themselves e.g. as to the accurate definition of this anomalous grammatical phenomenon (See e.g. J. Franek, Some Methodological Remarks of the Phonology of Ancient Greek, G-L Brunensia no. 17/1 (2012), pp. 33-50; see also “introduction and problem” in C. Meister, Iotacism and the Pattern of Vowel Leveling in Roman to Byzantine Era Manuscripts, ASP 76, 2012, pp. 1-13). Secondly, although it is generally accepted that the language of the Septuagint reflects – seemingly - the standard language of the time period, and it is not a special dialect or artificial language, some of the noticeable “oddities” however reflect either the language of the time that we are still learning about (since most dictionaries and grammars are based on earlier classical Greek) or arise from natural interference in a translation. We need to remember also that any inconsistencies in the spelling, grammar and syntax in general is a matter to which degree we comprehend the linguistic aspects of LXX. Without it, we cannot be sure who erred, and who correctly spells the words. Yet, our current knowledge about the Greek of this type of translational work is rather still limited as Natalio F. Marcos suggest by admitting, "In reality, the language of the LXX has not yet been examined thoroughly in light of the enormous number of papyrus documents." (See Natalio F. Marcos, The Septuagint in Context. Introduction to the Greek Version of the Bible, trans. by Wilfred G.E. Watson (Leiden, Boston, Köln: Brill, 2000), p. 14)), and its peculiar nature shares different rhetorical and stylistic features than the classic Greek especially if we take into account socio-cultural position of the 3^rd century BC. Hellenistic Jews who used their own dialect somehow foreign to the native Greeks of Egypt (See Et sapienter et eloquenter: Studies on Rhetorical and Stylistic Features of the Septuagint, eds. E. Bons & Thomas J. Kraus, FRLANT 241, Göttingen: Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht, 2011).

Although the “iotacism” in Koine Greek phonology is not inconsequential, and there is a good deal of flexibility between ει and ι (and vice versa), we will see below that e.g. the scribe A from Codex Sinaiticus use both forms: χιραϲ (chiras) and χειραϲ (cheiras) and no correction was done after him (in regard to the so-called iotacism between ει and ι).

In the Book of Psalms, we have 24 instances of the form χειραϲ (cheiras) written by scribes A & D (Psalms 9:35; 17:35; 21:17; 25:6; 27:2; 30:6, 9; 36:33; 40:3; 43:21; 46:2; 57:11; 62:5, 11; 72:13; 73:3; 77:61; 87:10; 113:15; 124:3; 133:2; 137:7; 142:6) and 6 instances of the form χιραϲ (chiras) written exclusively by scribe A (Psalms 105:41-42; 118:48; 122:2; 143:1; 144:16), and yet no correction was made to the later one! (i.e. no epsilon added to χιραϲ). See the two sample illustrations relating to the form χιραϲ (chiras) from Psalms 122:2 and χειραϲ (cheiras) from Psalms 142:6 that where written by one and the same scribe, and where no editorial change took place:

          (Click on image to enlarge)

In the Book of Job, we have 2 instances of the form χειραϲ (cheiras) written by scribe A (Job 4:3; 17:9) and 6 instances of the form χιραϲ (chiras) also written by scribe A (Job 9:24; 11:13; 15:22, 25; 16:11; 27:23). Let’s check e.g. the case of χειραϲ (cheiras) from Job 4:3 vs. χιραϲ (chiras) from Job 15:25 (refer to the two photos presented below):

In Proverbs, we find 3 instances of the form χειραϲ (cheiras) written by scribe A (Proverbs 19:24, 31:19; 20) and 3 instances of the form χιραϲ (chiras) also written the same scribe (Proverbs 6:3; 16:5; 30:10), without any correction to the later form (See one of these examples in the image below):

Pay attention to the second photo - just above - where χιραϲ (chiras) is preceded by the preposition ειϲ exactly as in Isaiah 29:12. Here, χιραϲ (chiras) seems to have sigma at the end in the same size as the rest of letters proving that the editors of the Sinaiticus website had no right to accept sigma from χιρα (chira) in Isaiah 29:12 as being originally written by scribe B, but rather it should be ascribed to Cb3 since it was he who added this letter. In the Book of Esther, we note 5 instances of the form χιραϲ (chiras) written by scribe A (Esther 1:2; 4:17; 6:2; 8:7) and 5 instances of the form χειραϲ (cheiras) also written by scribe A (Esther 3:9, 10; 4:17; 8:7). In 2 Esdras, we find 4 instances of the form χειραϲ (cheiras) written by scribe A (2 Esdras 13:2, 10; 16:9; 23:13) and 3 instances of the form χιραϲ (chiras) also written by scribe A (2 Esdras 16,9; 19:24, 28).

In the Gospel of Matthew, we find 2 instances of the form χειραϲ (cheiras) written by scribe D (Matthew 17:22; 18:8) and 6 instances of the form χιραϲ (chiras) written by scribe A (Matthew 15:2; 19:15; 22:13; 26:45, 50; 27:24). In Acts of the Apostles, we find 13 instances of the form χιραϲ (chiras) written by scribe A (Acts 4:3; 5:18; 8:17, 19; 9:12, 17; 12:1; 13:3; 19:6; 21:11, 27; 28:8, 17) and 1 instance of the form χειραϲ (cheiras) written by the same scribe (Acts 6:6). See the case of χιραϲ (chiras) from Acts 21:11 and χειραϲ (cheiras) from Acts 6:6 in the picture below:

The case of Song of Songs is a rare one. Namely, in Song of Songs 5:4-5 we find χιρα (chira) and χειραϲ (cheiras) originally written by the same scribe, the first one found in the beginning of v.4 and the second one at the end of v.5 (See the image below where both forms were framed with rectangles in blue and red colour):

Jeremiah 51:30 is also an interesting case. In this verse, scribe B1 wrote twice χειραϲ (cheiras), and by the third time, in the next column of the same verse, he wrote χιραϲ (chiras) but Cb3 inserted an epsilon, thus changing it to χειραϲ (cheiras). Look to the image below and compare the two cases (notice also the preposition ειϲ highlighted by a yellow line):

Now we come to the Book of Isaiah where do we find at least 2 instances (Isaiah 11:14; 51:23) where scribe B wrote χειραϲ (cheiras) and in other instances clearly wrote χιραϲ (chiras) but corrected by the incompetent Cb3 who of course introduced epsilon (indicated with a short line in green). Let’s see the example of Isaiah 11:14 and compare it to Isaiah 25:11 in the picture below (notice that all letters are written in capital):

This proves that even scribe B (who was often misjudged by Cb3) recognized between the diphthong ει and iota ι, otherwise he would not wrote in one place χειραϲ (cheiras) and other time χιραϲ (chiras) or χιρα (chira) as in the case of Isaiah 29:12. It is a mystery that in Rahlf’s Critical Edition or in any lexicon to the LXX, neither χιρα (chira) nor χιραϲ (chiras) does ever appear! (See Septuaginta: with Morphology, ed. A. Rahlf, Stuttgart: Deutsche Bibelgesellschaft, 1996; T. Muraoka, A Greek-English Lexicon of the Septuagint, Louvain: Peeters, 2009). It seems that these two forms were completely ignored except in some very few cases where Rahlf replaced these two forms either by χειρα (cheira), a singular feminine noun in accusative case, or by χειραϲ (cheiras), a plural feminine noun in accusative case. Bernard A. Taylor remarks that Rahlf "strove to standardize itacisms such as ει versus ι "... but he "often did not match form and function for proper nouns in his text .” (See Bernard A. Taylor, Analytical lexicon to the Septuagint: Expanded Edition. Peabody, MA: Hendrickson Publishers, 2009, p. xxi [introduction]). While continuing, B. A. Taylor notes that in Rahlfs Critical Edition, the “iota subscripts are omitted for second declension dative singular proper nouns that clearly are inflected, since the separate nominative singular form is usually also found, or the article is present. In all such instances all diacriticals are supplied. At the same time, diacriticals are not included for proper nouns that do not decline and are not in any recognizable Greek form, except that the diaeresis is retained where necessary to indicate syllabification of these Hebrew-Greek transliterations. Further, indeclinable proper nouns are not parsed, even when the parsing is clear from the context. For instance, in Tobit 5:6 (a text) Ραγα is feminine accusative singular, but it is an indeclinable noun, so it is simply listed as a proper noun.” (Ibid., p. xxi). So as we see, Greek scholars had a serious problem with their illusionary “iotacism” in relation to proper nouns which is not an accident. Rahlf - and later also Ziegler - failed to grasp the true meaning of Scribe B’s original χιρα (chira) thinking it was a mere scribal error for χειραϲ (cheiras), and eventually, both of their editions of the Septuagint – on which the vast majority of translations are now based - were misled by adopting the unnecessary correction or rather “miscorrection” of Cb3.

In anyway, the above mentioned cases illustrated by images show us beyond doubt that scribes A & B clearly distinguished between the diphthong ει and iota ι, and no intervention of any corrector is observed (except the unlucky scribe B). The question arise: if the diphthong ει and iota ι were pronounced identically and it was a very common misspelling, why then the word χιραϲ (chiras) in all of these passages was left without any correction (if it is regarded as a mistake and lexicographically unidentifiable according to the modern academic criterion)? And in relation to Isaiah 29:12, why despite this, Cb3 was so stubborn that he felt the need to put an epsilon (after the scribe B) as if he wouldn't do that, there would be a grave mistake? Why he was interested concretely with the case of χιρα (chira) from Isaiah 29:12, if the "iota" misspelling was already a popular phenomenon in the times where Codex Sinaiticus was transmitted? Is not this a bit strange? Well, whether these interchanges in basic morphology were common or not, a shocking meaning of χιρα (chira) or χιραϲ (chiras) expose ironically the Google Translator and other similar online translators. An alternative translation of the phrase τουτο ειϲ χιρα read as "…these in Hira" or better "…that/this in Hira" which implies that χιρα is understood here as a proper name for a place. If you put in Google’s translator the English phrase "In the cave of Hira" and choose translation to Greek, it will give you the following result: Στο σπήλαιο της Χίρας (Sto spílaio tis Chíras). As you can see, it uses exactly the same letters for the word Hira. Again, if you put the Greek phrase το ειϲ Χιραϲ ανθρωπου from Sinaiticus, it will translate it as "the man in Hira". And once again, if you put the Greek phrase ον τουτο ειϲ χιραϲ you will find "being these in Hira" etc. The most striking, however, is when you type χιρα or χιραϲ alone, and you select translation to Arabic, the alternative rendering will be غار حراء (ghar Hira = the cave of Hira!!!):

I guess Google’s Arabic translation of χιρα or χιραϲ (kept with sigma by editors of the Sinaiticus website) betrays unambiguously what Hira really is. Here below is the link to an article from Greek Wikipedia about the cave of Hira. Notice how modern day Greeks are spelling it. They use exactly the same letters for "Hira" as in Codex Sinaiticus (after we cancel Cb3’s epsilon and sigma, staying with the original χιρα) since the modern Greek χ is aspirated (with an h sound):

https://el.wikipedia.org/wiki/%CE%A7%CE%B9%CF%81%CE%AC (χιρα from Greek to English Google Translate: [1] [2] [3] [4] video).

A Greek scholarly paper [Ph.D. thesis] entitled το ισλαμ στους βιους των νεομαρτυρων (Islam in the lives of neo-martyrs) uses the same word for Hira (since the text cannot be copied, I have captured it in an image):

See page 30, here: http://ikee.lib.auth.gr/record/110425/files/GRI-2009-2132.pdf [2] (copy of the pdf on this website to permanently preserve it)

Another additional confirmation comes from the book entitle Σημειώσεις για το Ισλάμ (Notes on Islam) written by a modern Greek theologian Θεόδωρος Ι. Ρηγινιώτης (Theodore I. Riginiotis). This scholar also uses the form Χιρά for the name Hira while commenting/retelling the Quranic revelation that Prophet Mohammed experienced (See page 20, here: https://www.euxh.gr/images/PDF/Shmeioseis_gia_to_islam.pdf [2]

Analogically, a support from another Greek paper (See the image below,

See the Greek translation of “Sealed Nectar”, the famous Islamic biography of Prophet Mohammed (SAAW) and where the incident of Hira is mentioned (pages 7, 17, 21, 22, 23, 24, 35, 52, 61, 98, 99, 100, 103, 104), here: https://islamland.com/uploads/books/The_Sealed_Nectar-grk.pdf [2].

So as we can see, there is no doubt that the appropriate Greek transliteration relevant to the Arabic حراء (Hira) takes the form Χιρα and it is the same one found in the fourth century Codex Sinaiticus in the unedited text of Isaiah 29:12.

Post 3. Question

Question

Wa alaikum assalam
Great research brother !
So, how would you translate Greek text of Isaiah 29:12 in Sinaiticus:
και δοθηϲεται το βιβλιον τουτο ειϲ Χιραϲ ανθρωπου · μη επιϲταμενου γραμʼματα ˙ και ερι αυτω · αναγνωθι ταυτα και ερι . ουκ αιπιϲταμαι γραμʼματα

Answer:

Wa aleikum as-salam wa rahmatullah,

Thank you, brother, for your kind words! Good question: the Sinaitic textual-form χιρα (chira) found in Isaiah 29:12 and which was written by the original scribe (distorted later by Cb3), represents in my opinion an authentic form of reading (which became inauthentic thanks to the regrettable intervention of Cb3). It was originally signifying a place name (Hira). I’m still trying to figure out how Isaiah 29:11-12 could be linked with the preceding verses, as well as with those that come after, which is not an easy task since even high-class of professional scholars differed as to when the context of Isaiah 29 begins and where it ends (For various academic opinions on that, see e.g. pages 88-100 in: Willem A. M. Beuken, Historical Commentary on the Old Testament: Isaiah, Part II, vol. 2: Chapter 28-39, trans. B. Doyle, Leuven: Peeters, 2000). We need to remember that the Book of Isaiah is incredibly obscure. It is a product of multiple authors who edited and rewrote the text of their predecessors (See P.-E. Bonnard, Le second Isaïe, son disciple et leurs éditeurs: Isaïe 40-66, coll. « Études Bibliques » Paris: J. Gabala & Cie, 1972; P. A. Smith, Rhetoric and Redaction in Trito-Isaiah: The Structure, Growth and Authorship of Isaiah 56-66, VTSup 62, Leiden: E. J. Brill, 1995; J. Stromberg, Isaiah After Exile: The Author of Third Isaiah as Reader and Redactor of the Book, OTM. Oxford University Press, 2011). The newly “organized” and reworked version of the Book of Isaiah that we have today, is not forming a unified and coherent picture of biblical events. Due to numerous unauthorized alterations in the content of the book, it’s very complicated nature makes even the most talented and most knowledgeable scholars literally wrestling with the text.

Answering on your question: How would I translate the Greek text of Isaiah 29:12 from Sinaiticus? Knowing that the change is limited only to one particular word, I think that the previous text-form of Isaiah 29:12 read more or less as follows:

"And the Book (or this/that Book) will be delivered in Hira [to] an illiterate man, and one shall say to him: 'Read this, and he shall say: 'I’m not learned.'"
My research requires to read Isaiah 29:12 in a much broader context, with a special reference to Isaiah 28 where one can find an intriguing relationship between Mecca and Zion with its Black Stone (Cornerstone) and we find even some details indicating to the way the Quran will be revealed to Prophet Mohammed (SAAW). Other allusions become also visible if we read Isaiah 8 where we find a curious fragment: “And he shall sweep through Judah overflowing as he passeth through he shall reach even to the neck; and the stretching out of his wings shall fill the breadth of thy land, O Immanuel” (Isaiah 8:8) which reminds of the moment where Prophet Mohammed (SAAW) saw in the sky the gigantic figure of archangel Gabriel (AS) covering the entire heaven by stretching his wings over the land of Mecca, just after Prophet SAAW came out scared from the cave Hira where the first divine revelation began. In my research, Immanuel is Prophet Mohammed (SAAW), but this word denotes a sign not a name: “Therefore the Lord Himself shall give you a SIGN: behold, the young woman shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his SIGN Immanuel" (Isaiah 7:14), which is alluding to إنَّ الَلهَ مَعَنَا (Innallahama’na) from Quran 9:40. Now, it is interesting that Isaiah 8 is commonly linked by scholars with Isaiah 29 since only in these chapters we find a rare notion of a sealed document and unique vocabulary, which is again not a coincidence. The same case is e.g. with Isaiah, chapter 9 which according to scholars would be a good continuation of Isaiah, chapter 5. Actually there is a proof in the works of early Muslim historians and commentators where fragments from chapter 9 of Isaiah are explicitly cited as coming from chapter 5! (See e.g. Ibn Rabban, al-Din wa al-Dawlah fi Ithbat Nubuwwat al-Nabi Mohammed, ed. A. Nuwayhid, Beirut: Dar al-Afaq al-Jadida, 1973, pp. 145-147. Here is the Arabic text: https://archive.org/details/A-dinne.Wa.A-dawla/page/n143) [1, 2]. Moreover, all quotations from Ibn Rabban’s work (except only one) are not in the same chronological order as we find them in today’s Book of Isaiah. For example, the famous proclamation about the fall of Babylon from Isaiah 21, he quote as coming from Isaiah 10 (Ibid., pp. 148-150). By examining this famous prophecy, Ulrike Sals, a German scholar, notes evident literary-linguistic similarities in particular places in Chapters 13 and 21 of the Book of Isaiah and concluded that both chapters are about the same event (See U. Sals, Die Biographie der "Hure Babylon": Studien zur Intertextualität der Babylon-Texte in der Bibel,FAT 2.Band 6, Tübingen: Mohr Siebeck, 2004, p. 282). This observance shows that the texts indeed were transported from their previous places because of the expansion of the original material in the process of incorporating non-original materials. Recently, a hitherto unknown fragments of the Arabic translation of the great Rabbi Saadia Gaon (882-942), have been found (See A. Ashur, S. Nir & M. Polliack, “Three Fragments of Saadia Gaon Arabic Translation of Isaiah Copied by the Court Scribe Joseph ben Samuel (c. 1181-1209),” in: Senses of Scripture, Treasures of Tradition: The Bible in Arabic among Jews, Christians and Muslims , ed. Miriam L. Hjalm (Leiden, BO: Brill, 2017), pp. 487-508). One fragment of the manuscript marked as T-S NS 318.72 includes sections of Isaiah 23:6-24:22; Isaiah 28:16-29, and the second fragment ENA 2697.18 includes Isaiah 30:1-15. The entire twenty-ninth chapter is strangely absent(!), although the numeration of the verses from the next three fragments indicates that the text must have ran continuously. There are two options:

1. either the texts that forms today Isaiah 29 did not existed or were located elsewhere, or

2. the text of Isaiah 29 existed but Saadia Gaon or the court scribe who copied his Arabic translation for some reasons didn’t want to include it.

The Arabic fragments of Saadia Gaon from T-S NS 318.72 lack chapters 24-27 which for many years are universally considered by scholars to be a later interpolation to the Proto-Isaiah corpus. As Christopher B. Hayes observes, "These chapters resist traditional methods for locating texts historically" (See Christopher B. Hays, The Date and Message of Isaiah 24-27 in Light of Hebrew Diachrony, 2013, p. 7), and they represents "an anonymous, late- or postexilic composition and probably one of the latest additions to the book of Isaiah." (See Marvin A. Sweeney, Textual Citations in Isaiah 24-27: Toward an Understanding of the Redactional Function of Chapters 24-27 in the Book of Isaiah, JBL 107/1 (1988), pp. 39-52. For a detailed discussion on this problem see Formation and Intertextuality in Isaiah 24–27, eds. J. Todd Hibbard & H.C.P. Kim, SBL: Ancient Israel and Its Literature no. 17, Atlanta, GA: Society of Biblical Literature, 2013). It is possible also that Saadia Gaon or the scribe who copied his texts, was aware that Isaiah 24-27 were not the original work of Isaiah, and thus they preferred to omit it. Moreover, the suspicious absence of the entire chapter 29 would support also my hypothesis that Isaiah 29:12 was previously located in chapter 8 where we find a curious indication of angel’s wings covering the land of Immanuel (Isa 8:8). It is thus possible that some specific contents of Isaiah 8 and 29 were originally placed together, in the same chapter, as one episode, but later were isolated through the expansion of the text. This would be a rational explanation of why in Isaiah 8 we find such enigmatic indications to a sealed document (which is linked to the sealed document from Isaiah 29:11-12) or angel’s wings covering the land of Immanuel etc. (land of Mohammed SAAW). By tracing all of these details, one by one, we begin to understand slowly how these distinctive prophecies are corelated with each other, and why Isaiah recalls his vision of a prophecy in the form of a parable (understood in eschatological terms) about the Book which will be delivered to an illiterate… in Hira (the cave of Hira). Interestingly, in the thirteenth chapter of the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus (AS) uses parables as patterns of revelation that serve to reveal esoteric or secret truths (See e.g. W.S. Vorster, The Structure of Matthew 13, Neotestamentica 11, 1977, pp. 130-138. Available here: https://www.jstor.org/stable/43048976; also Jacob J. Scholtz, Reading Matthew 13 as a prophetic discourse: The four parables presented in private, In Skriflig 49/1 Pretoria, 2015), pp. Available here: http://www.scielo.org.za/pdf/ids/v49n1/14.pdf) [2]. Similarly, Isaiah is using in vv. 11-12 a parable with an intention to reveal through it a hidden message in hope that it would be decoded someday by a future generation of wise people. The whole story will be even more compelling if we take verses of Isaiah 29:1-8 as an allusion to Abraha (Sennacherib) and his invasion on Mecca (Zion). There are some pretty cute hints supporting this view. Orientalists have noted a striking similarities between Abraha’s and Sennacherib’s incident (See Gordon D. Newby, “Abraha and Sennacherib: A Talmudic Parallel to the Tafsīr on Sūrat Al-Fīl", JAOS 94/4 (1974), pp. 431-437. Available here: https://www.jstor.org/stable/600585). This will help us to understand the subsequent narrative in Isaiah 29:12 and the reason behind mentioning it. Namely, a prophecy predicting Mecca (Zion) being saved miraculously from its enemy (Abraha as Sennacherib), and then, forty years later, the first Meccan revelation in Hira addressed to an Arabian prophet who could not understand the vision that he has experienced, thus fulfilling the prophecy of Isaiah 29:12 which portrays an illiterate in a communicative-like situation as being under divine inspiration but unable to comprehend the vision (this will be proved insha’Allah in the next part titled Evidence #2: “Together with Gabriel in Hira!”).

Post 4. Additional Notes

As-salam aleikum wa rahmatullahi wa baraketuh,

Before I move on to the next significant discovery, I would like to stress some additional points concerning scribe B’s use of the Greek word for Hira in Codex Sinaiticus. This time, we need to concentrate on χιρα (chira) preceded by the preposition ειϲ (eis) and why I think it is not a coincidence here (we have already pointed to this preposition while analysing various screenshots from the manuscript in Post 2). Firstly, notice that this Greek phrase, i.e. ειϲ χιρα (eis chira), which is translated e.g. by BES or NETS as "into the hands" (of course such translation is justified only after including epsilon between chi and iota plus sigma at the end of χιρα!), does not occur in v. 11 which is strictly and inseparably connected with v. 12 on the basis of their thematical content functioning as a parable, in a two-line prose form, about a sealed Book given to two different kinds of people: one who is educated, and the later one who is uneducated. So, the phrase "into the hands" is lacking in v. 11 but suddenly appears in v. 12 according to the LXX. This observation will prove to be extremely important, not only because v. 12 talks about an illiterate man who was instructed in a vision to read a sealed Book, but also will explain the reason of the presence of our key-word χιρα (chira) in this verse. Secondly, the idea of a prophetical night vision where an illiterate person receives "in his hands"(?) a sealed book with the command to read it, has no parallel in the Bible. To be sure, I have made the following tactical verification: using search tool engine in my biblical software, I typed the phrase τὸ βιβλίον τοῦτο εἰς χεῖρας (to biblion touto eis cheiras = the Book + that/this + into/in + hands) to see just how many verses are in the entire Greek Bible that contain all of these words at the same time (not necessarily in exact order). The result was astonishing… it turns out that these aforementioned words can be found only in Isaiah 29:12, and nowhere else! I took a photo to illustrate it while working with my biblical software:

          (Click on image to enlarge)

Even if we limit our searching scope to only three terms (for instance, excluding the definite article τὸ and demonstrative pronoun τοῦτο), in my case they were: βιβλίον + εἰς + χεῖρας (biblion eis cheira = book + into + hands), we will find surprisingly only 5 verses, one of which is in Isaiah 29:12, and the rest 4 verses are outside Isaiah’s book. Notice how each of these particular words are situated and the distance between them, and compare them to the case of Isaiah 29:12 (notice also that the thematical content of these 4 verses has absolutely nothing to do with Isaianic parable about the sealed Book given to an illiterate). See the photo below:

I typed also other sample phrases like δοθήσεται + βιβλίον + εἰς + χεῖρας (dothesetai biblion eis cheiras = delivered + book + into + hands), but again the result matches only Isaiah 29:12! Isn’t amazing? This remark is also very important because it again betrays the real motive why Isaiah 29:12 is the only verse in the entire Greek Bible where the distorted form χειραϲ (cheiras) appears in the background of a sealed Book given to an illiterate person etc., and only according to LXX version. And the motive behind that is because the previous original text copied by scribe B, in fact never contained a word with lexical functions of plural noun in accusative case “the hands”, but rather it was something else in its place. Even assuming for a moment that the translation “And the Book will be delivered into the hands(?) of an illiterate…” is the correct one, this phrasal sequence makes the narrative of v.12 bizarre, without any parallel, and strange to the Bible language. Nowhere in the Greek Bible or even in the Hebrew Bible, such a sequence of words ever appear. Usually when critical scholars faces biblical passages that has no intertextual parallel, they are often forced to recover a hypothetical text-form without any confirmatory evidence from the existing manuscripts! Here is an example verdict of one of the most prominent Hebrew scholars of today. While discussing the complexity of Mss transmission and multiplication of errors in the Hebrew text of Isaiah 53:11, he came to the conclusion:

“A final clue is that 1QIsa^amakes the identical error in 34:5, writing תראה for רותה. Thus, it appears that the original text was מעמל נפשו ירוה ישבע בדעתו; that no manuscript survives to attest it; that an early form of the MT erred with the lectio facilior יראה (possibly influenced by יראה in v. 10); and that most manuscripts tradition filled in a suitable object, אור (cf. 9:1; 44:16; and יהוה אורי Ps 27:1).” (See Eugene C. Ulrich, The Dead Sea Scrolls and the Developmental Composition of the Bible, VTSup 169 (Leiden: Brill, 2015), pp.138-139.)

There are more examples of such non-attested textual readings officially adopted as plausible by top Hebrew scholars (some of these critically reconstructed variae lectionis are discussed e.g. in Emmanuel Tov’s ground breaking book “Textual Criticism of the Hebrew Bible”, three editions has already been published under the same title). Thus, we have sufficient justification and other logical reasons permitting us to reconstruct a particular fragment of the Bible without any attestation from other manuscripts, and the same method we apply to the text of Isaiah 29:12 basing on our own understanding. Many emendations to the text of LXX are offered by Greek scholars in order to recover readings which were once found in the original text but now are “no longer written” (See P. Walters, The Text of the Septuagint: Its Corruptions and Their Emendation, ed. D. W. Gooding, Cambridge: University Press, 1973; and with respect to the New Testament, see e.g. Ryan D. Wettlaufer, No Longer Written: The Use of Conjectural Emendation in the Restoration of the Text of the New Testament, the Epistle of James as a Case Study, Leiden: Brill, 2013).

I believe that the scribe B’s χιρα (chira), which was the first genuine reading, represented originally an indeclinable feminine proper noun and was reserved for a place name, that is "Hira", and precisely speaking "the cave of Hira" as Google's Arabic translation clearly indicates. By the way, how ironical is the fact that the most inconspicuous tool online can expose sometimes hidden meanings of an ancient Greek words!

In summary, we have established in this post that the phrase εις χιρα (eis chira) from Codex Sinaiticus indeed means "in Hira" NOT "into the hands" = ειϲ χειραϲ (eis cheiras), since as I showed in the images above, there is no single parallel to the later rendering apart from Isaiah 29:12 (naturally I meant that there is no parallel clauses in the Bible with such a narrative background which would combine the idea of giving a sealed Book ”into the hands”(?) of an illiterate with the imperative verb speech: “Read it”, plus double negative response of that illiterate man). My emendation for the former rendering, i.e. "in Hira" (after we cancel Cb3’s epsilon + sigma and stay with scribe B’s original text-form χιρα), will change the semantic value of the whole verse - as I proposed in my Post 3 (Question) - and in my view, it would make more sense along with the Quranic scenario of surat al-'Alaq and how it address Prophet Mohammed (SAAW) when he was inside the cave of Hira.

Post 5. Conclusion

Concluding my previous posts concerning Hira in Isaiah 29:12:

It seems that the editorial step undertaken by Cb 3 encoded the true meaning of the earlier, original text-form, χιρα (chira), which plays a key role in Isaiah 29:12. In other words, by inserting an additional letters (i.e. epsilon ε and sigma ς), Cb3 tried to enclose/encrypt χιρα (chira) within its new own contextual frames, i.e. to give in result "the Book will be delivered into the hands(?)..." instead of "the Book will be delivered in Hira to an illiterate man...", thus hiding the genuine contextual frames for that word, and eliminating any possible ambiguity of its actual etymological origin, although ineffectively since at last, an evidence against its manipulation has emerged. This clever editorial manoeuvre, which led finally to the physical corruption of the text, was almost certainly the source for the later false translations that were adopted by BES or NETS, and Cb3’s manipulative attempt is ridiculous and unfair.

While the Book of Isaiah is indeed an incredibly obscure book (as e.g. Ezekiel or John’s Apocalypse), there exists numerous intriguing things hidden in it that are not yet explored by Muslims , and that points specifically to the events related to Islam and Prophet Mohammed’s (SAAW) missionary office. In many cases, biblical scholars are helpless as to what the text originally said, what is the exact meaning of a such and such word, which particular event Isaiah had in mind etc. On the other hand, many of these difficult and puzzled cases can be easily deciphered from the Quran and Hadith literature.

Currently I’m gathering further info for my next post dealing with the Evidence #2: “Together with Gabriel in Hira!” in which I will discuss another important discovery. In it, I will explain who is - or who was - the one that delivered the Book to the illiterate man from a patristic exegesis on Isaiah 29:12 and of what book it was about in Evidence #3: “The Sealed Book” given to an illiterate is the celestial archetype model of the earthly Quran (Ummu l-Kitab).

EVIDENCE #2: “Together with Gabriel in Hira!” (Isaiah 29:12 describes an angelic revelation)

Post 1. Preliminary Notes

In brief, we have demonstrated in our previous discourse (Evidence #1) that the old Greek text of Isaiah 29:12 according to Codex Sinaiticus gives an invaluable testimony that the sealed book shown to an illiterate man, took place in χιρα (Hira), and Google Translator even clearly pinpoints that it is in Arabic غار حراء (ghar Hira), i.e. the cave Hira, which is a famous holy place located in the Meccan desert where Prophet Mohammed (SAAW) received his first Quranic revelation, in 610 AD. In the first post of this section, we will focus on another important discovery which will provide an answer on who is the anonymous “one” who gave the sealed book to this illiterate man in Isaiah 29:12. But first, let’s confirm once again from another angle the way how Isaiah 29:12 is alluding to Prophet Mohammed (SAAW) as an unthought man to whom will be given the book. We will quote the Targum-Jonathan to Isaiah 29:12, an early Aramaic translation of the Hebrew Bible (however it was revised in the seventh century AD… again, obviously because of Mohammed’s SAAW appearance as an Arab!)

The Aramaic Text of Isaiah 29:12 (Sperber’s Critical Edition)

וְיִתיְהֵיב סִפרָא לִדלָא יָדַע סִפרָא לְמֵימַר קְרֵי כְעַן דֵין וְיֵימַר לֵית אְנָא יָדַע סִפרָא

English Translation by Bruce D. Chilton (1987)

“And all prophecy has become to you like the words of a book that is sealed. When men give it to one who knows the book, saying, “Read this,” he will say, “I cannot, for it is sealed.” And the book will be given to one who does not know the book, saying, “Read this,” and he will say, “I do not know the book.”

The above phrase from Chilton’s literal translation “one who does not know the book” (לִדלָא יָדַע סִפרָא) is interesting since it perfectly corresponds with Prophet Mohammed’s (SAAW) case when Allah has revealed to him مَا كُنتَ تَدرِي مَا الْكِتَابُ (ar. ma kunta tadri ma l-kitabu), i.e. “You did not know what is the Book”. Let’s read the entire verse of Sura 42:52 where these words appears:

وَكَذَٰلِكَ أَوْحَيْنَا إِلَيْكَ رُوحًا مِّنْ أَمْرِنَا ۚ مَا كُنتَ تَدْرِي مَا الْكِتَابُ وَلَا الْإِيمَانُ وَلَٰكِن جَعَلْنَاهُ نُورًا نَّهْدِي بِهِ مَن نَّشَاءُ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا ۚ وَإِنَّكَ لَتَهْدِي إِلَىٰ صِرَاطٍ مُّسْتَقِيمٍ

Sahih International

“And thus We have revealed to you an inspiration (ar. ruhan, i.e. Gabriel AS) of Our command. You did not know what is the Book or [what is] faith, but We have made it a light by which We guide whom We will of Our servants. And indeed, [O Muhammad], you guide to a straight path”

Some Christian apologists claimed that Prophet Mohammed’s (SAAW) illiteracy is a myth since there are authentic hadiths which says e.g. أخذ رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم الكتاب فكتب i.e. “Messenger of Allah took the document and wrote…,” (Sahih al-Bukhari, ) thus using it as an undisputable proof that Mohammed (SAAW) indeed knew how to read and write. I will devote insha’Allah a section refuting all objections of Christian apologists on that matter. For now, I will quote only one verse from Sura 29:48 which very clearly states by emphasizing that Prophet Mohammed (SAAW) didn’t know how to read and write before the Quran came down to him:

وَمَا كُنْتَ تَتْلُو مِنْ قَبْلِهِ مِنْ كِتَابٍ وَلَا تَخُطُّهُ بِيَمِينِكَ ۖ إِذًا لَارْتَابَ الْمُبْطِلُونَ

“And thou was not (able) to recite a Book before this (Book came, i.e. the Quran), nor art thou (able) to transcribe it with thy right hand: In that case, indeed, would the talkers of vanities have doubted.”

Christian apologetic argumentation actually does not disprove in any way that when the first Quranic revelation in Hira took place Prophet Mohammed (SAAW) was unlearned. In other words, it does not affect the claim that Isaiah foreshadows Mohammed (SAAW) as an illiterate prophet and Muslim’s interpretation is still 100 % valid in this matter, since Allah clearly says he couldn’t read nor write before the Quran was given to him (ar. ma kunta tatlumin qablihi), i.e. until the age of forty he was not learned yet (what happened later is another question, but most info is coherent that he remained illiterate to the end of his life).

Now, the fragment اَوۡحَيۡنَاۤ اِلَيۡكَ رُوۡحًا مِّنۡ اَمۡرِنَا i.e. “We have revealed to you a spirit from Our command” (Quran 42:52) that we cited earlier, refers without doubt to angel Gabriel (AS) who is known also in Islam as the Holy Spirit (Ruhu l-Qudus) and the The Faithful Spirit (Ruhu l-Amin). Gabriel (AS) is a powerful celestial being who transmitted the divine revelations to the terrestrial beings. He is the “one” who was responsible for the theophanies that all prophets of God experienced. Now, there are two early patristic authorities who admits something interesting in relation to the “one” who delivered the book to the illiterate mentioned in Isaiah 29:12. Jerome of Stridon (ca. 345-420 AD), in commenting upon Isaiah 29:9-12, notes that “‘all the Scriptures’ are “written by the one Holy Spirit and for this reason are called one book” (Latin: uno scriptae sunt spiritu sancto; et propterea unus liber appellantur). Analogically, Cyril of Alexandria (ca. 376-444 AD), in explaining the same text in his own commentary, writes “The divinely inspired Scripture is sealed as one book. For it is all one, and has been spoken through the one Holy Spirit.” (Greek: κατεσφραγίσθη . . . καθάπερ βιβλίον ἓν ἡ θεόπνευστος Γραφή. Ἓν γὰρ ἡ πᾶσά ἐστι καὶ λελάληται δι’ ἑνὸς τοῦ ἁγίου Πνεύματος). It was Matthew R. Crawford who drew attention to this particular detail in his article "Scripture as 'One Book': Origen, Jerome, and Cyril of Alexandria on Isaiah 29:11," JTS 64 (2013), pp. 137-53 (Available here: https://www.academia.edu/5005472/Scripture_as_One_Book_Origen_Jerome_and_Cyril_of_Alexandria_on_Isaiah_29_11). Thus, according to these two prolific biblical commentators, all the Scriptures are to be viewed as one book revealed by the Holy Spirit to all prophets. In Quranic theology, the Holy Spirit is non-other than angel Gabriel (AS) who revealed to Prophet Mohammed (SAAW) the first sacred verses from surat al-‘Alaq (clay) when he visited him in the cave Hira. The Quran is a comprehensive and complete system of divine Law that regulates spiritual, moral and every other aspect of human life. The authentic tradition recorded in Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim informs us that when Prophet Mohammed (SAAW) had received the revelation and told Khadija (RA) what happened, she took him to her cousin Waraqa ibn Nawfal to find out what this mysterious vision that saw Mohammed (SAAW) could possibly mean. After Prophet (SAAW) told him about his incident, Waraqa replied: هذا الناموس الذي أنزل على موسى i.e. “This is the same Nāmūs which was sent to Moses (AS)” (Sahih al-Bukhari, available here: ) or according to Sirah al-Nabawiyya’s account: “There hath come unto him the greatest Nāmūs which came to Moses (AS) aforetime” (Arabic text available here, pp. 153-154: https://archive.org/details/p1daslebenmuhamm01ibnhuoft/page/n395. English translation by A. Guillaume available here: https://archive.org/details/TheLifeOfMohammedGuillaume/page/n75). I have slightly modified the translation since the Arabic word النَّامُوسُ (al-nāmūs) was wrongly understood by some as a designation of angel Gabriel (AS), rather it seems that this word originated from the Greek νόμος (nomos) which LXX usually uses for translating the Hebrew תורה (torah) (See Sheldon H. Blank, The LXX Renderings of Old Testament Terms for Law, HUCA 7, 1930, pp. 259-283. Available here: https://www.jstor.org/stable/23502852). In a very general sense, the Greek νόμος (nomos) denotes a “law” (See Thayer’s Greek Definitions, available here: https://archive.org/details/greekenglishlexi00grimuoft/page/426). Thus, it was the greatest Law, or another Torah - in likeness of Mosaic Torah - that came to Prophet Mohammed (SAAW) in the cave Hira. Indeed, from the outset, the Qur'an was perceived as code "law." In Sura 32:23 of the Quran we read… "We did indeed aforetime give the Book to Moses: be not then in doubt of its reaching (thee)" (Yusuf Ali), i.e. Allah comforted Prophet Mohammed (SAAW) that he also will be given the Law - or the greatest Nomos - as Moses (SAAW) received.

Now, according to Josephus (ca. 37-100 AD), the “Law” was given through the angels. In his Antiquities of the Jews (15.5.3 §136), he writes: “…we have learned from God the most excellent of our doctrines, and the most holy part of our law (gr. nomos), by angels or ambassadors; for this name brings God to the knowledge of mankind.” (See The Works of Flavius Josephus, trans. W. Whiston, vol. 2, London: T. Tegg, 1825, p. 322. Available here: https://archive.org/details/worksflaviusjos07josegoog/page/n330). Angelic mediation of the Law is clearly indicated also in the New Testament (e.g. Galatians 3:19; Acts 7:53; Hebrews 2:2). Interestingly enough, the sealed document from Isaiah 8:16 which is commonly connected by scholars with that one from Isaiah 29:11-12, is called νόμος (nomos). The Book that was seen in the vision by the “illiterate” described in Isaiah 29:12 was therefore most likely the same thing which Waraqa bin Nawfal called in Arabic “Nāmūs” or in ancient Greek “Nomos” (See note 28 in Post 2. of this section).

A clear indication that the “one” who gave the sealed book to the illiterate one is Gabriel (AS), can be found in the Book of Daniel where God orders Gabriel (AS) to explain the vision for Daniel (Dan 8:16) and says to him to "shut up the words and seal the book" (Dan 12:4). It is interesting to note that Daniel was fasting when Gabriel (AS) came to him (Dan 10:3). So angel Gabriel (AS) also came to Prophet Mohammed (SAAW) when he was fasting and practicing tahannuth (during the period of Ramadan). Daniel was frightened whether he has understood what was revealed by Gabriel (AS) in a vision (Dan 10:11-12). So Prophet Mohammed (SAAW) also was frightened and didn’t know how to understand the revelation which Gabriel (AS) showed to him first time in a vision in the cave Hira.

Moreover, it seems that the “sealed book” is called also in one place “The Book of Truth” (Daniel 10:21) and this would be consistent with what early Muslim exegetes recorded. Namely, a very interesting report, probably from the lost Sibylline prophecies, that one prophet will be sent with a revelation… the Book of Truth (cf. Quran 4:105). I will explain it in section Evidence #3 with more details insha’Allah. Also, the next part of my post will provide an external evidence from Isaianic prophetology (recorded in early Islamic sources) where the “illiterate” is identified as Ahmad and he is connected directly with the Servant of God from Isaiah 42.

To be continued insha’Allah, very soon…

Mount Hira

This is Mount Hira (Jabal Hira), which lies about two miles from the Ka’bah. Near the top is a small cave, a little less than 4 meters in length and a little more than one and a half meters in width. It was here that the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) received the first revelations of the Holy Quran during the month of Ramadhan in 610 CE. The mountain is also known as Jabal Noor (the Mountain of Light).

During Tahajjud time one night, when he was alone in the cave, there came to him an angel in the form of a man. The angel said to him, “Recite!”. “I cannot read”, the Prophet (ﷺ) replied. The angel took hold of him a second time and pressed him until he could not endure it any longer. After letting him go, the angel again said, “Recite!”. Again the Prophet (ﷺ) replied “I cannot read”. The angel further embraced him again until he had reached the limit of endurance and said “Recite!” for the third time the Prophet (ﷺ) said “I cannot read”. The angel released him and said: “Read in the name of your Lord, the Creator. He Who created man from a clot. Read! And your Lord is the Most Bounteous. Who taught by the Pen, taught man what he knew not.” [96:1-5]

300 years before Islam, Paran was Mecca:

From www.answering-christianity.com/predict.htm:

300 years before Islam, manuscripts were found that gave the location of Paran to be in modern-day Mecca. "Burden" is a monumental honorable thing from GOD Almighty. Burden was used for Noah and other Prophets' tasks as well. Notice in the following honorable burden how GOD Almighty will come from a far southern land, and from Teman and Paran in Arabia:

Arabia's honorable burdens from GOD Almighty.

Isaiah 21:13
13 The burden upon Arabia....

Habakkuk 1:1
1 The burden which Habakkuk the prophet did see.

What burden did he see?

Habakkuk 3:3
3 God came from Teman, and the Holy One from mount Paran. Selah (Arabian desert of Selah in Isaiah 42:11 and MOUNT SELA in Medina thoroughly discussed below). His glory covered the heavens, and the earth was full of his praise.

Tema in Hebrew means the "south country". We also know that Tema (Tayma) is in Saudi Arabia today, and Saudi Arabia is indeed south of Palestine and Jordan. So, GOD came from the south Arabian country, and His holy one from Mecca is the future burden that Prophet Habakkuk saw. 300 years before Islam, Paran was Mecca.

Arabia's honorable burdens from GOD Almighty.

Isaiah 30:6 The burden upon the south.

Isaiah 30:27
27 Behold, the name of the Lord cometh from far (Far from Palestine. Mecca is 900+ miles far, and it is in the south), burning with his anger, and the burden thereof is heavy: his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue as a devouring fire:

Isaiah 21 Rider of camel prophecy. Only Prophet Muhammad fulfilled it when he entered Medina

Arabia's honorable burden, Islam, is indeed monumental; heavy

GOD's Honorable Burdens upon Arabia:

GOD Almighty's new burdens that he placed on future Arabia are the same burdens that He placed upon Prophets, and also upon places where the righteous believers carry His Truth and uphold it. A burden from GOD Almighty is:

1- Costly.
2- Requires endless patience and perseverance.
3- Is an honor from GOD Almighty upon the individual or the group of people.
4- Is not a wrath from GOD Almighty upon the individual or people.

Future Arabia has many burdens placed upon it throughout the OT. Notice also in the Bible, Prophet Job was called "perfect and upright" by GOD Almighty in the OT. He was a very rich Arab man. Also, Jesus in the NT called the Canaanite Palestinian woman "O woman, how great is your faith! Be it as you wish." He never granted any wish a person desires to any person throughout the NT, other than this Arab woman.

Arabia's Future Blessings:

Shout in joy Arabs in Arabia, for the streams of GOD's Truth and Blessings will gush from your lands; Arabia!

Isaiah 35:6
Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the desert shall waters break out, and streams running from Arabia.

Isaiah 30:6 The burden upon the south.

Arabia's honorable burden, Islam, is indeed monumental and heavy.

Why was GOD Almighty charitable (χάριτι) and forgiving to Jesus in Luke 2:52:?

Jesus replaced Satan: (Ezekiel 28:13-19).

Notice the language of how Satan was:

1. "You were perfect from the day you were created". Jesus was also created from the Word of GOD.
2. Glorious.
3. "the chosen one".
4. The "Anointed".
5. ruler over earth.
6. Ruler over the "Holy Mount" of GOD.

7. Matthew 24:25-27 Jesus will return as an Arabian Messiah from Damascus.

He was all of these and more before arrogance, pride, stubbornness and blasphemies caused Satan to fall from Grace. Jesus then became the substitute, i.e., the Perfect", "Glorious", "the chosen one", the "Anointed", "ruler over earth" and ruler over the "Holy Mount" chosen one of GOD Almighty.

Jesus also said the direction of the Prayer towards Jerusalem will be no more (Psalm 138:2, John 4:21, Matthew 21:43, Isaiah 35, Isaiah 60, Genesis 25:12-13). It will be replaced with the Qibla (direction) to Mecca and the Holy Path to Mecca. Only Islam is the Divine Truth from Allah Almighty. Christianity is pagan. Even Christmas is an ancient Roman pagan holiday (video clip) according to the Christian theologians themselves:

Jesus too carried the Spirit of GOD in him, and he carried also the Spirit of fearing GOD in him. Jesus was also called slave of GOD in the OT many times. He also had no Divine Will. Trinity is a lie from Hell.

See also 24 other Thrones and Messiahs besides Jesus (Revelations 4 & 5).

Quran: All Bibles are mostly corrupt [1] قول (Quran 10:94 and 10s others discussed). See also the 39+ members of trinity. Jesus called every believer a Muslim in Luke 6:40.

Also Mount Hira in Mecca in Isaiah 29:12 is possibly the same mountain Moses received GOD Almighty's Divine Revelations in, since this is the same mountain Prophet Muhammad received the Quran in.

Isaiah 42:10-13 (listed in details below) GOD will sing a New Song from Arabia via the gentile Prophet who will come from the Jews' "brothers" (Deuteronomy 18:18). Also in Jeremiah 31:31–32, it will be a new Covenant different from the one that was given to Moses. . The Ishmaelites are the brothers of the Israelites. Also, only Islam fulfilled Deuteronomy's army of 10,000 Believers (Deuteronomy 33:2). The New Testament also renews this Prophecy and claims it is yet to be fulfilled in the future. Also, Ishmael's Covenant was left for the "later generations". Also, year 314: Paran's geography was Mecca; 300 years before Islam. Arabia's honorable burdens from GOD Almighty in Isaiah's prophecy and other OT books. See also Muslims .

Isaiah 56:5: The future believers' name will no longer be Sons and daughters of GOD (Luke 2:52: GOD forgave Jesus' sins and was "charitable" with him). Their title will be Muslims. The Jews also confirm this.

The final Prophet in Jeremiah 31:31–32, Isaiah 42:10-13, John 1:19-21 and John 7:40-44 will bring a new covenant different from the one given to Moses ("It will not be like the covenant I made with their ancestors"), and he will be a gentile. Only Islam's Covenant and Prophet fulfilled this.

Prophecy about Muslims will bow to GOD in the direction of His Holy Temple. Notice the "I will" and "toward" prophecy:

Psalm 138:2
I will bow down toward your holy temple and will praise your name for your love and your faithfulness, for you have exalted above all things your name and your word.

Jesus' Path to Islam quite clearly defined in Matthew 21:33-46: Servants (FAILED) -> Son (FAILED) -> New Tenants ("other tenants") and New Ethnic People Jesus said (ethnei ἔθνει) (new nation) (non-Jewish Muslims ). The "great nation" of Ishmael OT prophecy begins to be fulfilled in Matthew 21:33-46.

Notice how Isaiah 42:11 defines the NEW SONG and NEW PEOPLE:

The prophecy of Isaiah 42 about the Prophet:

1. Lives where Kedar the son of Ishmael [Genesis 25:13]
2. Kedar from Arabia [Ezekiel 27:21]
3. Will live besides Sela (mountain in Arabia)
4. He will sing a new song (law)
5. Will be sent from Gentiles not Jews
NOT TO THE LOST SHEEP OF ISRAEL Matthew (15:24)
6. Man of war (Isaiah 42:13)
7. Will be sent to idol worshipers (Isaiah 42:17)

Who is this man?

Ample more details and proofs also below.

Jesus also said the direction of the Prayer towards Jerusalem will be no more (Psalm 138:2, John 4:21, Matthew 21:43, Isaiah 35, Isaiah 60, Genesis 25:12-13). It will be replaced with Mecca and the Holy Path to Mecca.

Arabia's honorable burdens from GOD Almighty.

Isaiah 30:6
6 The burden of the beasts of the south: into the land of trouble and anguish, from whence come the young and old lion, the viper and fiery flying serpent, they will carry their riches upon the shoulders of young asses, and their treasures upon the bunches of camels, to a people that shall not profit them.

Isaiah 30:27
27 Behold, the name of the Lord cometh from far, burning with his anger, and the burden thereof is heavy: his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue as a devouring fire:

Isaiah 42:10-13 (listed in details below) GOD will sing a New Song from Arabia via the gentile Prophet who will come from the Jews' "brothers" (Deuteronomy 18:18). Also in Jeremiah 31:31–32, it will be a new Covenant different from the one that was given to Moses. The Ishmaelites are the brothers of the Israelites. Also, only Islam fulfilled Deuteronomy's army of 10,000 Believers (Deuteronomy 33:2). The New Testament also renews this Prophecy and claims it is yet to be fulfilled in the future. Also, Ishmael's Covenant was left for the "later generations". Also, year 314: Paran's geography was Mecca; 300 years before Islam. Arabia's honorable burdens from GOD Almighty in Isaiah's prophecy and other OT books. See also Muslims .

Prophecy about Muslims will bow to GOD in the direction of His Holy Temple. Notice the "I will" and "toward" prophecy:

Psalm 138:2
I will bow down toward your holy temple and will praise your name for your love and your faithfulness, for you have exalted above all things your name and your word.

1- Tema was one of Ishmael's sons. It is also worth mentioning that Arabs in the OT and NT were called "perfect and upright" and have "great faith". Not a single Jew was ever called that.

2- Tema in Hebrew means the "south country". We also know that Tema (Tayma) is in Saudi Arabia today, and Saudi Arabia is indeed south of Palestine and Jordan. So, GOD came from the south Arabian country, and His holy one from Mecca is the future burden that Prophet Habakkuk saw. 300 years before Islam, Paran was Mecca.

Notice how Isaiah 42:11 defines the NEW SONG and NEW PEOPLE:

The prophecy of Isaiah 42 about the Prophet:

Who is this man?

https://www.answering-christianity.com/blog/index.php?topic=3880.msg18381#msg18381

GOD's burden will be upon Arabia prophecy. The same word, "burden," was also used for monumental assigned tasks to Prophets. So, Arabia was chosen to carry the burden, and to bear the brunt and pain of spreading GOD Almighty's Truth to the entire world. See Goddess Asherah, pornography, return of the Messiah from Damascus, Bible and Islam Prophecy for ample verses and proofs. The Prophecy also says GOD will come from a far southern land [1], and from Teman and Paran [1] (both are in Saudi Arabia). That's precisely Islam. 300 years before Islam, Paran's geography was determined to be in modern-day Mecca. Manuscripts were found.

Know also that the entire "House of Jacob", in Isaiah's prophecy, was commanded to follow this Servant-to-come from the deserts of Arabia [1]. Do not be afraid (Isaiah 41:8-13) of this new GENTILE SERVANT (Isaiah 41:2, 42:1) and the NEW CHANGE (he will sing a NEW SONG of new Divine Revelation Isaiah 42:10) that the desert of Kedar will rejoice for his coming (Isaiah 42:11). Never was this said for an Israelite Prophet. THE ENTIRE HOUSE OF JACOB were commanded to not be afraid of him, because he will be a NON-ISRAELITE Prophet. NEW SONG here means a new non-Hebrew Arabic Scripture to come from Arabia (Kedar); the Glorious Quran. Read Isaiah 41 & 42.

Muslims bless Abraham everyday. Shedding light on Genesis 12:1-3 "I will bless those who bless you...".

Also visit: Becca is Mecca in Psalm 4:6. According to (1) Cambridge commentary, (2) Jewish Encyclopedia and (3) Encyclopedia Biblica in Arabic and other sources. Ample Jewish and Christian references declare Becca's geography to be modern-day Mecca. In the NIV Bible commentary of Psalm 84, they also mentioned that Selah was mentioned in verses 4 and 8 of Psalm 84. Half of the Book of Psalm talks about Selah, and half of the Book of Isaiah has prophecies about the blessed future Arabia [2] [3].

Also, cave Hira, which the Glorious Quran was sent down in, was precisely mentioned by the name in Isaiah 29:12.

Teman Prophecy in Isaiah:

The Ishmaelites are the brothers of the Israelites. Ishmael was the older brother of Isaac. The Arabian desert of Kedar, which covers Teman [1]:

Isaiah 42:
10 Sing to the Lord a NEW SONG (new non-Hebrew, non-Jewish Divine Revelation "from their brothers (the Ishmaelites)" (Deuteronomy 18:18). Also in Jeremiah 31:31–32, it will be a new Covenant different from the one that was given to Moses. , i.e., the Arabic Quran) And His praise from the ends of the earth, You who go down to the sea, and all that is in it, You coastlands and you inhabitants of them!
11 Let the wilderness (desert in many translations) and its cities lift up their voice, The villages that Kedar inhabits. Let the inhabitants of Sela sing, Let them shout from the top of the mountains.
12 Let them give glory to the Lord, And declare His praise in the coastlands.
13 The Lord shall go forth like a mighty man; He shall stir up His zeal like a man of war. He shall cry out, yes, shout aloud; He shall prevail against His enemies.

Indeed, Islam came from Arabia. The Glorious Quran is the NEW SONG that the Hebrew speaking Jews are not part of or used to. And Islam prevailed over its Arabian enemies in the desert and ended the polytheism and idol worship. Read Isaiah 41 & 42. Notice again:

Isaiah 42:11
1599 Geneva Bible
11 Let the wilderness and the cities thereof lift up their voice, the towns that [a] Kedar doth inhabit: let the inhabitants of the rocks sing: let them shout from the top of the mountains.

Isaiah 42:11 Let the desert and its cities lift up their voice, The villages that Kedar inhabits. Let the inhabitants of Sela סלע sing, Let them shout from the top of the mountains.

סלע:

ס = S
ל = L
ע = A

It is the city and region of Saleh in Saudi Arabia. Hebrew SALA or SELA is SALAH or Saleh in Arabic. Vowels are added to letters in Hebrew and Arabic to change the sound of letter. This is similar to the letters E, O and other vowel letters in English. Also inside the city of Medina, Islam's second holiest city, there is also Mount Sela. Medina was Yathrib before Islam. The Jewish Prophecy here could either be referring to the entire region or directly and specially to the city of Medina. In either case, the geography is clearly deep in Arabia:

Sela (Arabic: سلع ‎) is a mountain in Medina in modern Saudi Arabia. Mount Sela in the "District of the Seven Mosques" in city of Medina Municipality in Saudi Arabia. Sela means "sliced", because the mountain looks as if it is sliced several times. The Islamic prophet Muhammad in the Battle of the Trench prayed to God for victory on Mount Sela.

Remember in Isaiah 42:13, above, "MAN OF WAR. He shall cry out, yes, shout aloud; He shall prevail against His enemies." (Isaiah 42:13)

And again, it is also worth mentioning that Arabs in the OT and NT were called "perfect and upright" and have "great faith". Not a single Jew was ever called that.

Desert of Saleh :

Isaiah 42:11 Let the desert and its cities lift up their voice, The villages that Kedar inhabits. Let the inhabitants of Sela sing, Let them shout from the top of the mountains.

Although archaeological remains may not be the first thing that spring to mind when most people think of Saudi Arabia, it has incredible historic sites. Mada'in Saleh, which was designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, contains many remarkable ruins and tombs. It is the first location in Saudi Arabia to have achieved this distinction. It was once the second city of perhaps the most important pre-Islamic Arabian civilization, the Nabateans.

Remember: Burden is a monumental honorable thing from GOD Almighty. Burden was used for Noah and other Prophets' tasks as well. Visit section #2 in the following article about "2- The honorable burdens throughout the Bible". Notice how GOD Almighty will come from a far southern land, and from Teman and Paran in particular in Arabia:

Isaiah 21:13 The burden upon Arabia

      Isaiah 30:27 GOD's Name will come from a far land

Habakkuk 3:3 GOD will come from the southern (Tema) Arabian lands

      Isaiah 42:10-13 New Song from Arabia via the gentile Prophet who will come from the Jews' "brothers" (Deuteronomy 18:18).   Also in Jeremiah 31:31–32, it will be a new Covenant different from the one that was given to Moses.

Isaiah 42:13 The Lord shall go forth like a mighty man;
Habakkuk 3:3 God came from Teman, and the Holy One from mount Paran. Selah. His glory covered the heavens, and the earth was full of his praise.

So we have the deserts of Teman, Paran, Kedar, Sela (Selah). We also have Arabia, Duma, Deedan, and others (See also Isaiah 1:9-17: Yahweh called Israel Sodom, because it spreads evil and is unjust). Again, remember: Burden is a monumental honorable thing from GOD Almighty. Burden was used for Noah and other Prophets' tasks as well. Visit section #2 in the following article about "2- The honorable burdens throughout the Bible". Notice in the following honorable burden how GOD Almighty will come from a far southern land, and from Teman and Paran in Arabia:

Hub leading to Islam:

Jesus was the final Jewish Prophet, and the Messiah who shall return from Arabia (Matthew 24:25-27 and Islam say this), and his mission and message were limited to his Jewish generation. He was a hub leading to Islam and to the new change:

Matthew 15:24 24 Jesus answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel.”
Matthew 24:34 "Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled."
Matthew 5:17-20, Matthew 23:1-3 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.

Jesus was limited to only his Jewish generation. Beyond that, he was only a hub leading to Islam and to Muhammad, the gentile Prophet. Please also visit:

Muhammad in the Bibles.
Muhammad in the NT.
Muhammad in the OT.
Jesus was for his generation only. Detailed Greek analysis.

This is further proven in the following:

Are you the Christ? No.
Are you Elijah? No.
Are you the Prophet? No.

Are you the Prophet?

In the OT, "the Prophet" will come "from their brothers" (the Jews' brothers: Deuteronomy 18:18). The Ishmaelites are the brothers of the Israelites. Also, a plethora of Prophecies in OT and NT that speak about this Prophet to be a Gentile, and will come from the Southern Lands, and from the Lands of Kedar and Teman (all in Saudi Arabia), and the House of GOD will be established in the deserts of Kedar:

Muhammad in the Bibles.
Muhammad in the NT.
Muhammad in the OT.

John 1:19-21 John was asked if he were the Messiah, Elijah, and then "The Prophet": John 1:21.
John 7:40-44, Jesus was supposed to come from David's line, while the Prophet was NOT. He was a foreigner.

Are you the Christ? No.
Are you Elijah? No.
Are you the Prophet? No.

Daniel 7:25
25 He shall speak words against the Most High (turning sinful lawful and lawful sinful),
and shall wear out the saints of the Most High,

Quran's STUNNING Divine Miracles: [1]

Here are some of my favorite Stunning Numerical and Scientific Miracles in the Glorious Quran that are listed in the main sections, below:

1- The root for message and all of its derivatives, such as messenger and others occurs 513 times throughout the Glorious Quran. The Prophets' and Messengers', peace be upon them, actual names (Muhammad, Moses, Noah, Abraham, Lot etc....) were also all combined mentioned 513 times in the Glorious Quran. The detailed breakdown of all of this is thoroughly listed here.

Stunning Prophecies [2] [3]

2- The Great Miracle. Allah Almighty in the Holy Quran called the Number 19 Miracle "One of the Mighty Ones (Miracles)" (74:30-37) [1] [2]. See the 100s of Noble Verses that clearly testify to this Great Miracle. Also, did you know that Allah Almighty Said in Surat Nuh (that's Noble Chapter Nuh (Noah)) that Prophet Noah lived for 950 years among his people.

Yet, all Praise and Glory are due to Allah Almighty Alone, the entire Noble Surah is exactly written in 950 Letters [1] [2]! You can thoroughly see this in the scanned images that thoroughly verify every single Noble Letter, in the links. Click on the links to see the many other Numerical Miracles in the Holy Quran. Also, see the Numerical Miracles section along with all of the other great sections. Also, 1,000s of examples in zip & PDF (fonts) files all demonstrated in this article.

3- 19 X 115 = 2185 Number 19 and BASMALA Miracle. The total numerical value of Noble Verses 74:30-37 themselves, which are the heart of the Number 19 Miracle, has a stunning Miracle in it. The value of these Noble Verses matches the multiplication of the BASMALA's number of letters (19 Letters) and their total numerical values (115): 19 X 115 = 2185. The Basmala, which full text in Arabic means "In the Name of Allah The Most Beneficent, The Most Merciful" is the Key to the Glorious Quran. It is recited first before reading the Holy Quran, and it is also obligatory upon every Muslim to start with the Basmala before starting any task. Again, 1,000s of examples in zip & PDF (fonts) files all demonstrated in this article.

4- The Glorious Quran has 114 Chapters. The sum of those Chapters is 6555 (1+2+...+114 = 6555). There are also 6236 Noble Verses in the Glorious Quran. Now, if you add each Chapter's number with the number of its Verses, then you get a list of numbers. So 1 (first Chapter) + 7 (# of its Verses) = 8. Do this for all Chapters.

1- The sum of the odd numbers from the list = 6555.
2- The sum of the even numbers from the list = 6236.

"When the sky disintegrates, and turns rose colored like paint (وردة كالدهان)." (The Noble Quran, 55:37) [2] [3]

As we also see from the picture, Noble Verse 55:37
is a Divine Promise (Allah promised to show mankind) that mankind will
actually see this come to pass one day. NASA and other space
agencies, by Allah Almighty's Will, have certainly fulfilled this
Prophecy, because a natural rose wouldn't form when a
"Heaven" or a Solar System or even an entire galaxy and its
trillions of solar systems all blow up (explode). It is rather the
look of it, and this is exactly what NASA confirms.

The Glorious Quran declares that the earth is spherical: [1]

Allah Almighty in the Glorious Quran said that earth is:
   - Spherical: "egg-shaped" [1].
   - Is rotating around itself.
   - Is moving in space in curvy orbits [2].
   - Is in constant motion.
   - Is suspended in space.
   - Is swimming in space.
   - Is traveling through the constantly expanding universe [3].
   - The sunsetless North Pole miracle in the Glorious Quran [4].

At the top of the North Pole, the sun never sets [4], and I showed the video for that, and also quoted the scientific sources for that. Also in the lands near by, it almost never sets either, and I quoted sources for that as well, and also showed pictures of the "polar night" skies on these lands that are near the sunsetless North Pole.

They also spoke almost unintelligibly (18:93), the Glorious Quran says. They hardly spoke intelligibly (18:93). Historians have proven that the Barbarians of the North used to speak unintelligibly. The actual meaning of the word "Barbarian" is someone who speaks unintelligibly.



He saw the Aurora Lights covering:
Aurora Lights Hadith

Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, saw the aurora lights covering the horizons of space above the earth when he was taken up to Heaven:

Narrated Abdullah: "Regarding the Verse: “Indeed he (Muhammad) did see. Of the Signs of his Lord, The Greatest!” (Quran 53.18) That the Prophet had seen a green carpet spread all over the horizon of the sky قَالَ رَأَى رَفْرَفًا أَخْضَرَ سَدَّ أُفُقَ السَّمَاء." (Translation of Sahih Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 54, Number 456)

Visit also: Islamic proof that the sun prostrates to Allah Almighty when it is above Mecca.

Regarding Dhil-Qarnayn (literally means "man of two horns"), Allah Almighty said this about his journey to the farthest northern lands and people:

‏18:90 حتى اذا بلغ مطلع الشمس وجدها تطلع على قوم لم نجعل لهم من دونها ستر

"Until he reached near حتى اذا بلغ where the sun is up مطلع الشمس, he found it above وجدها تطلع على people قوم whom We made no cover for them from it لم نجعل لهم من دونها ستر.   (The Noble Quran, 18:90)"

Noble Verse(s) 18:91

Rodwell:
[018:091] Thus it was. And we had full knowledge of the forces that were with him.
Arabic (Read from right to left.   Also, all png image files: [1] [2]. Quran Moral Code (100s of them)]):
‏18:91 كذلك وقد احطنا بما لديه خبرا

Prophet Muhammad "did see" (Quran 53.18) the Aurora Lights covering the horizons above the earth from space.   Dhil-Qarnayn went up to the farthest northern lands where the sun is up, and "Thus it was", Allah Almighty completed the "full knowledge" regarding Dhil-Qarnayn's mission.   This further supports the story below about Dhil-Qarnayn's journey to the farthest northern lands and people (The sunsetless [4] North Pole Quran-miracle). They also spoke almost unintelligibly (18:93), the Glorious Quran says.   They hardly spoke intelligibly (18:93).   For example, can you read or say this:

"Vaðlaheiðarvegavinnuverkfærageymsluskúrslyklakippuhringurinn" ?? This is an actual word. Historians have proven that the Barbarians of the North used to speak unintelligibly.   The actual meaning of the word "Barbarian" is someone who speaks unintelligibly.   The description of the people of the North, whose North Pole is truly sunsetless (see ample pictures), perfectly fits the Barbarians of the Vikings in the Scandinavian and other Barbarians in the near by lands:

The early Muslims believed that Dhil Qarnayn reached the people of the farthest norths of the earth. The following is a map of Al-Sharif Al-Idrisi in year 1154 giving the geographic location of where Dhil Qarnayn went according to the understanding of the early Muslims of Noble Verses 18:83-100:

Dhil-Qarnayn literally means "man of two horns"

Dhil = One who has.
قرنين Qarnayn = two horns.
Qarnayn is a dual plural of Qarn (horn).
Three or more horns is Quroon, in Arabic.

Noble Verses 53:18 and 18:91 are also prophetically linked together; that Prophet Muhammad also saw what Dhil-Qarnayn ذي القرنين saw.   Also visit:

(Video from NASA filming the Green Carpet Aurora Lights from space)

Again, Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, saw the aurora lights covering the horizons of space above the earth when he was taken up to Heaven:
Narrated Abdullah: "Regarding the Verse: “Indeed he (Muhammad) did see. Of the Signs of his Lord, The Greatest!” (Quran 53.18) That the Prophet had seen a green carpet spread all over the horizon of the sky قَالَ رَأَى رَفْرَفًا أَخْضَرَ سَدَّ أُفُقَ السَّمَاء."(Translation of Sahih Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 54, Number 456)

   - The Glorious Quran also speaks about many earths [5] and not just earth.
   - The Glorious Quran predicts 11 planets in our solar system [6].

In the end, Allah Almighty uses the Glorious Quran to "...Thus doth God leave to stray whom He pleaseth, and guide whom He pleaseth..." (74:31).

7- Prophet Muhammad, and Divine Islam, and the New Covenant from Arabia were thoroughly prophesied in previous scriptures.

Bible's OT and NT declare Jesus was never crucified:

Psalm 116:16 Jesus and his mother, Mary, both thanked GOD Almighty for saving Jesus from harm and death.

Isaiah 53:10 and Psalm 91:16 indisputably confirm that Jesus never got crucified. Both Jesus and satan even referenced them in the NT during their conversation.

Questions about Jesus prove he is not GOD (Luke 2:52: GOD forgave Jesus' sins and was "charitable" with him).

Which Jesus was released and which was crucified? There were two Jesuses with Pontus Pilot. Not just one.

Matthew 24:25-27: Jesus will return as an Arab from Syria. Mentioned in the Bible and Islam.

What is the best way to convert a non-Muslim to Islam?

A Conversation I had with a Muslim convert regarding the crucifixion lie.

Trinity Crucified! 100s of verses prove trinity is false. Jesus healed others only after getting permissions from GOD Almighty. His wishes were sometimes denied. [2]

Matthew 24:25-27: Jesus will return as an Arab from Syria.

The Romans had to fake his crucifixion due to Passover issues:

Click to play video [1]. Matthew 12:40: "shall be buried deep in the heart of
earth for 3 days and nights as Jonah was deep in the belly of the whale."

Jonah was alive: But Jonah was always alive in his ordeal. He was alive on the shore,
alive in the whale's belly, and alive when vomited out of the whale. Alive, alive, alive!

This Prophecy is a lie! Jesus laid on the floor, got healed, and got up and
left.   He was never inside any coffin nor ever got buried.   Also, because 100s
of thousands of pilgrims were coming to Jerusalem for the Passover, the
Romans had to rush his "crucifixion" and bring him down.   The soldiers were
even denied food due to lack of time (see also Luke 2:52: GOD forgave Jesus).
Jesus never got crucified: [1] [2] [3] [4].   The OT and NT clearly spell it out.   He was saved.

Matthew 27:16-17: There were two Jesuses! Not one. Allah Almighty Said in the Glorious Quran:

‏[004:156] That they rejected Faith; that they uttered against Mary a grave false charge;
[004:157] That they said (in boast), "We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Apostle of God";-but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them, and those who differ therein are full of doubts, with no (certain) know ledge, but only conjecture to follow, for of a surety they killed him not:-
[004:158] Nay, God raised him up unto Himself; and God is Exalted in Power, Wise;-

Divine Setup for Conjecture:

Matthew 7:22-23: GOD sent Jesus to be Christianity's lying spirit

"... but so it was made to appear to them..." (Quran 4:157)

The two double-Jesus men & Pontus Pilate in Matthew 27:16-17:

According to the Gospel of Matthew, Pontus Pilate was standing between two double-Jesus men:

1- Jesus Barabbas.
2- Jesus Barabbas.

"...The Bibles' Christ was put on the cross for three hours. Any one of us would've survived this silly crucifixion. Your human body, when faced with death, can become 10+ times stronger, more resilient, more resistant and more stubborn than normal. This is what would enable you, for example, to lift an entire truck with your bare hands if your precious child was under it. Similarly, if you were put on the cross for three silly hours, your body would've survived it. A soldier was placed on the cross for 63 hours and still lived to tell the world about it." (Source)

Again, a Divine Setup for Conjecture.

Was Jesus Christ Crucified?

At hour 1:00:00 - 1:25:00, Dr. Zakir Naik really sealed
this debate and destroyed Christianity!

This is yet another wonderful 3-hour debate and video by
Dr. Zakir Naik where he thoroughly demonstrated from
the Bible's New Testament that Jesus Christ was never
crucified, nor did he ever rise from the dead.   This 3-hour
debate was between Dr. Zakir Naik and Pastor Rukni.

Psalm 91 promises Jesus will never get hurt or die. Satan in the NT challenged Jesus on Psalm 91. Yashua (salvation) is the last word in Psalm 91, and it also happens to be one of Jesus' names in the New Testament.

Here is my shortened version video.   Dr. Naik also provided many more verses than the following ones.   But the following verses and points were from my shortened version video.   See also this text-debate [2] between me and a Christian brother on my blog.   You're welcomed to join in.

Christianity's Salvation Lie:

Because Christianity's scriptures didn't get documented for 200+ years after Jesus, the Church and Christians had developed and invented the crucifixion lie and its requirement to save a person from Hell (by him believing in it), which had been thoroughly proven from both the Bible and the Glorious Quran, to be a fabricated lie [1]. Salvation verses like John 3:16 and others are all forgeries that were invented by liars 100s of years after the real Eesa , the real Messiah. Even in Latin, it is Iesu, and in Greek it is Iesus. Notice here Jesus' statements:

Matthew 9
12 Jesus heard them and answered, “Healthy people don’t need a doctor, but sick people do.
13 Go and learn what the Scriptures mean when they say, ‘Instead of offering sacrifices to me, I want you to be merciful to others (See also Isaiah 1:9-17: Yahweh called Israel Sodom, because it spreads evil and is unjust).’ I didn’t come to invite good people to be my followers. I only came to invite sinners.”

Matthew 5:7 Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.

Being Merciful to others makes you a good person. And Jesus didn't come for you if you are. Jesus didn't come to invite merciful and good people. They're already saved. They need no invitation. The Christian lie about one must accept that Jesus died on the cross for his/her sins is mandatory for their salvation, and that otherwise they'd be doomed to Hell is thoroughly destroyed in Matthew 9:12-13. In fact, both the OT and NT in many passages confirmed that GOD Almighty will save his Messiah from crucifixion and from death and harm.

Matthew 9:12-13 I have not come for you if you're a merciful Jew.

Three Isaiah 53 translation lies:

Three lies in translations of Isaiah 53, as further elaborated below in this table, that need to be clarified:

1- He was assigned a grave. This doesn't mean he was buried in it, because Jesus was never buried in any grave. He laid on the floor inside a tomb (cave-like structure), got healed and got up and left. He was never inside any coffin nor ever got buried inside the earth.

2- He was pierced for our sins. No, he was hurt (the word is not pierced or stabbed) because of "our" (Jews only) sins and transgressions. If you drive with your family and get hit by a drunk driver and your baby ends up getting killed, your baby didn't die for his sin. Your baby died BECAUSE of his sin and transgression. Otherwise, you would not have driven on the same road that day if you knew the future.

Early Church Fathers: Jesus never died for anyone's sins!

Christianity is. They declared that Jesus never bore (carried) any sin for anyone on the cross.

Jesus never died for anyone's sins! He was placed on the cross
BECAUSE of (not for) the Jews' sins, and Allah Almighty SAVED HIM.

Why was GOD Almighty charitable (χάριτι) and forgiving to Jesus in Luke 2:52:?

3- In his death. It is talking about his sentencing to death and not actual death. It is also symbolic, because Jesus didn't even stay for 3 hours on the cross (2.a) and was never killed. Plus, Jesus begged GOD (Luke 6:12, Matthew 26:36-44, Matthew 16:39, Matthew 6:5-8) all night to save him from crucifixion and all hurt. all hurt.

Lies about Psalm 91:13:

Some polytheist trinitarian pagans say that Psalm 91:13 proves that Jesus was never crucified:

Psalm 91:13
You will tread on the lion and the adder, the young lion and the serpent you will trample under foot.

They say that Jesus treading (stomping on) the lion and the snake means that he defeated satan via the cross. Satan is called both lion and snake. So Jesus stomped on him by getting crucified (killed on the cross) and resurrecting from death. They also say the NT books such as Matthew and Luke that quote Psalm 91 for Jesus both claim that Jesus was killed on the cross.

Response:

But Psalm 91:14-16 refute this:

14 Because he cleaves to me in love, I will deliver him; I will protect him, because he knows my name.
15 When he calls to me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will rescue him and honor him.
16 With long life I will satisfy him, and show him my salvation.

1- Also, Jesus was only placed for 3 hours on the cross (2.a). They had to pull the plug on crucifixion because the Passover was about to begin, where 1/2 million Jewish pilgrims were to shortly start pouring into Jerusalem. I, Osama Abdallah, would have survived Jesus' crucifixion.

2- Also, Jesus was never killed. He laid on the floor in the tomb, received medical treatment from the two Marys and other women, and then got up and left.

3- The books that say he was killed on the cross were written 200 to 400 years after Jesus. The majority of Christian historians and theologians claim this.

4- Psalm 91:15"...I will be with him in trouble, I will rescue him and honor him." Clearly declares he will be saved from death.

Merciful Palestinian and Good Neighbor Parable:

5- Jesus said below in Luke 10:25-37, Matthew 9:12-13: If you're merciful, a good neighbor like the Palestinian Samaritan in Luke 10:33, and above all, GOD-Fearing (OT says Jesus was a slave of GOD and GOD-Fearing), then you have nothing to fear. "Do this, and you will live" Jesus said. That's it. Jesus even used good Palestinians in his parable. Dying on the cross is a developed Christian lie centuries after Jesus (Luke 2:52: GOD forgave Jesus' sins and was "charitable" with him). It's a forgery.

The disciples arguing about the Sabbath and other Laws. Jesus promised them that the Holy Spirit will take over the disciples' mouths and that there will be no arguments, confusions or riddles. Yet, the NT is marred with open arguments, vilifications (calling each other cursed by GOD "anathema", satanic, false, wrong). Where is Jesus' promise?? Totally a false promise!

- Where is Jesus' promise??

- He promised that the Holy Spirit will take over the disciples' mouths, guide them in all ways, and that it will be the Holy Spirit speaking, not them.
- They ended up splitting into Paul vs. Peter two opposing groups, and were at odds with each other on several theological issues.
- 1 Corinthians 7:40 Paul wasn't sure if he had the Holy Spirit in him or not. He said "I think I have the Holy Spirit".
- Their differences remain unsettled till this day in the NT. They were never resolved.

- 12th disciple was also chosen by holy gambling.

- They were barking at each other like rabid dogs calling each other cursed, false, liar, satanic, your gospel is from satan!

Where was the promised Holy Spirit in their conflicting scriptures?

Remember:

If Paul is false, then Jesus is insufficient:

Sam Shamoun thoroughly demolishes trinity and the early bibles' writings. See also: 24 other thrones besides Jesus'. Virgin Mary is being group-incest-raped by some trinity members.

Yet, Paul admits that he speaks through a lying spirit (Romans 3:7 But if through my lie God's truth abounds to his glory, why am I still being condemned as a sinner?), while Jesus promised all of the disciples that the Holy Spirit will take over the disciples' mouths, and that it will not be them speaking, but the Holy Spirit. Yet, Paul says he was lying. 12th disciple was also chosen by holy gambling.

Paul and his team of disciples were also calling Peter's team, - and vice versa, - anathema ἀνάθεμα (cursed by GOD), false, bewitched, dogs, and many other things. Jesus' original message got corrupt from the false christianity and the deification of flesh and blood creations like Jesus, Mary and others like they used to do in ancient Europe in Greece, Rome, Byzantine and throughout ancient ancient Europe of three-headed gods and trinities, such as the trinity of Zeus, Athena and Apollo; also Hell's three-headed guardian dog, or the trinity of Delian, Artemis and Apollo and many other ancient trinities. Only Islam completes GOD Almighty's Religion. See ample prophecies. Bibles' manuscripts prove that Jesus was only sent for a limited Generation, as he himself stated, and his final return from the east (Matthew 24:25-27) is a new Covenant from Arabia and Islam; also false christs and prophets during and after Jesus [1] [2] at the time (see also Luke 2:52: GOD forgave Jesus).

Matthew 7:22-23: GOD sent Jesus to be Christianity's lying spirit

Dismal Spiritual Failures:

Let us examine the following:

Romans 3:23 ESV
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,

Ecclesiastes 7:20 ESV
Surely there is not a righteous man on earth who does good and never sins.

No man is sinless and faultless. The NT even says Jesus himself sinned via coveting the sins of the world. Paul then barfs the following gem:

1 Corinthians 2:15
A spiritual man makes judgments about all things, but he himself is not subject to any man's judgment.

How???

How can any flesh and blood sinner not be subjected to judgment? The world has seen how disastrous your pedophilic and corrupt priests, ministers and churches are, from sex abuse on children, theft, prostitution and so much more. Ironically also, Paul and the disciples themselves dismally failed this standard when they turned into rabid dogs in harsh judgments on each other; calling each other cursed, false, liar, satanic, your gospel is from satan! [1] Their books didn't even exist for the first 200 to 300 years, says most Bibles theologians. They are very highly corrupted. Also, Trinity is a lie from Hell. Why was GOD Almighty charitable (χάριτι) and forgiving to Jesus in Luke 2:52:? There is also conflict regarding misogyny:

Paul proves the book of Revelation is a forgery; a book of misogyny:

Bibles' manuscripts prove that Jesus was only sent for a limited Generation, as he himself stated, and his final return from the east (Matthew 24:25-27) is a new Covenant from Arabia and Islam; also false christs and prophets during and after Jesus [1] [2] at the time (see also Luke 2:52: GOD forgave Jesus).

Paul also commanded women to not expose sex predators in 1 Corinthians 14:34-35, 1 Timothy 2:11–13, 1 Thessalonians 4:3-4, 1 Corinthians 2:15 and other passages.

Edward Dalcour says that Jesus would be insufficient if Paul was proven to be false:

Sam Shamoun thoroughly demolishes trinity and the early bibles' writings. See also: 24 other thrones besides Jesus'. Virgin Mary is being group-incest-raped by some trinity members.

***** Bibles' OT and NT: Spirits that GOD Almighty sends down including lying ones in the Bibles. Jesus in several passages was Commanded by GOD to become one to forge falseianity (christianity) because of the ample blasphemies of the Jews.

Why was GOD Almighty charitable (χάριτι) and forgiving to Jesus in Luke 2:52:?

Jesus replaced Satan: (Ezekiel 28:13-19).

Satan & Peter VS. Paul: 2 Corinthians 12:7-11. Paul literally put Peter and Satan in one team.

Sam Shamoun also exposes the ample holy group sex that occurs in his circle:

Paul ordered the execution (actual killing) of some sinners.

Paul ate his vomit.

Paul proves the book of Revelation is a forgery; a book of misogyny:

(Sam Shamoun declares gambling is allowed in Christianity)

Jesus amputated his unholy testicles and head of penis to remain holy. If his body was holy, were his testicles cursed and unholy, especially that he commanded to maim your sinful body parts? You mean to tell me that they were not part of the Creator of the Universe's body?? Paul said maimed flesh gets sent to satan.

Why did Jesus amputate his own (NT calls them satanic flesh) testicles and penis' head?

Sam Shamoun declares that the bibles and trinity
are man-made and are not from the living Word of GOD Almighty.
Sam Shamoun: If Catholicism is false, then the entire NT is a fraud, and there is "no Christianity". It would be like the "pagan worship of Baal". Sam Shamoun also declares the 2nd and 3rd centuries bibles-writings are forgeries, and declares that if you study the bible logically, then you will become an atheist.

Quran: Bibles are mostly corrupt.

Noble Verses 5:44-49 are thoroughly unpacked in this article. According to the Glorious Quran, there is nothing called new testament, or bible or even old testament. There is the Thikr of Moses, which contains the Wasaya (Commandments, which are the 600+ Law Commandments), which the Prophets before Prophet Muhammad and Islam "the prophets did judge by it" (5:44). Even in the bibles we find in Deuteronomy 4:2 and other places say that the Commandments (600+) must not be mixed with any other text. Also, the Injeel or Injil is not the NT. It is the direct commands of Prophet Eesa (not Jesus), in which he mostly gave beautiful Commandments of Mercy, Compassion, Love, Fasting, Praying and Worshiping GOD Almighty Alone and associating no partners with Him, and also gave glad tidings about the coming of Prophet Muhammad and the new Covenant of Allah Almighty. The Bibles are all corrupt. The Glorious Quran also declares them all to be corrupt. The Glorious Quran also confirms the Messiah, Eesa (not Jesus) and his virgin mother, Marium (not Mary), peace be upon both of them and upon all of the Prophets and Messengers of Allah Almighty (Not even Jesus was given the Book according to the Glorious Quran). We also read in Noble Verses 5:46-49:

Sam Shamoun declares 2nd and 3rd centuries bibles-writings are forgeries:

How big was the first New Testament?

The early believers were also expecting an Arabian Prophet. The OT thoroughly talks about him and his new Covenant coming from Kedar in Arabia, and the NT talks about him coming after the Messiah:

The Bibles are all corrupt. The Glorious Quran also declares them all to be corrupt. The Glorious Quran also confirms the Messiah, Eesa (not Jesus) and his virgin mother, Marium (not Mary), peace be upon both of them.

Response:

But Psalm 91:14-16 refute this:

2- Also, Jesus was never killed. He laid on the floor in the tomb, received medical treatment from the two Marys and other women, and then got up and left.

3- The books that say he was killed on the cross were written 200 to 400 years after Jesus. The majority of Christian historians and theologians claim this.

4- Psalm 91:15"...I will be with him in trouble, I will rescue him and honor him." Clearly declares he will be saved from death.

The two double-Jesus men & Pontus Pilate in Matthew 27:16-17:

According to the Gospel of Matthew, Pontus Pilate was standing between two double-Jesus men:

1- Jesus Barabbas.
2- Jesus Barabbas.

Yes, both were called "Jesus Barabbas" (Matthew 27:16-17). Barabbas (/bəˈræbəs/; Aramaic: ישוע בר אבא‎ Bar ʾAbbaʾ, literally "son of the father"). The first Jesus Barabba was a Jewish revolutionist who killed Roman soldiers to free his people. The second one is our Jesus Christ. Both had no known biological fathers.

In the Middle East, if a person's father is unknown, they call him "son of his/your father". This title is also used for great warriors and great achievers. Such heroes would be called by the people: "You are indeed the son of your father!", since the hero is his father's seed. Bastards are also called that (son of your/his father), and not "bastard", to not immediately sound insulting to them.

A Divine set up for Conjecture: [2, 1, html]

It is no coincidence that Pilate was standing between two almost "identical twins" in names and most probably in looks too, on the same day and hour and minute. You could not have planned it! Two strangers who were exact in names and most possibly in looks, were to get crucified on the same day and same hour. Not that the first one is in February and the other in September. No:

1. Same year.
2. Same month.
3. Same day.
4. Same hour.
5. Same exact name.
6. Same looks.

Roman's Law: Survive the cross = YOU LIVE! [2].

This conversation is further expanded on this website's blog [1, html backup].

Jesus' life will be extended:

Psalm 91, Isaiah 53, Psalms 116, 117, 118 all declare that Jesus will not be crucified.

Psalm 116:16: Jesus and his mother both thanked GOD for saving Jesus (Luke 2:52: GOD forgave Jesus' sins and was "charitable" with him). By the way, Jesus constantly thanked GOD Almighty for enabling him to perform every Miracle. He gave thanks for every Miracle: John 11:38-42, Matthew 15:35-37, Luke 22:14-20, Matthew 11:25, Luke 10:21, Acts 2:22. Jesus also begged GOD many times. He even begged GOD all night long, countless times, to save him from crucifixion.

The cursed satan quoted Psalm 91 to Jesus challenging Jesus to jump off. Jesus simply told him that yes, while the promise of GOD Almighty to protect me from all harm and death is there, but the scripture also says: "Do not tempt GOD (Luke 2:52: GOD forgave Jesus' sins and was "charitable" with him)." The Bible is very clear about the crucifixion being a man-made lie: Psalm 91.

Isaiah 53: Jesus' life will be prolonged (extended). And he will be saved from all harm. His life will overpower death (Isaiah 53:12). Isaiah 53:10-11, GOD Almighty will prolong (extend) Jesus' life. Isaiah 53:8, the Hebrew says that Jesus will be thrown in jail, imprisoned.

The Romans had to fake his crucifixion due to Passover issues:

earth for 3 days and nights as Jonah was deep in the belly of the whale."

Jonah was alive: But Jonah was always alive in his ordeal. He was alive on the shore,
alive in the whale's belly, and alive when vomited out of the whale. Alive, alive, alive!

No man is sinless and faultless. The NT even says Jesus himself sinned via coveting the sins of the world. Paul then barfs the following gem:

1 Corinthians 2:15
A spiritual man makes judgments about all things, but he himself is not subject to any man's judgment.

How???

Paul proves the book of Revelation is a forgery; a book of misogyny:

Paul also commanded women to not expose sex predators in 1 Corinthians 14:34-35, 1 Timothy 2:11–13, 1 Thessalonians 4:3-4, 1 Corinthians 2:15 and other passages.

Trinity Crucified! 100s of verses prove trinity is false. Jesus healed others only after getting permissions from GOD Almighty. His wishes were sometimes denied. [2]

What is the best way to convert a non-Muslim to Islam?

Jesus satan Christ according to Jesus? Of course Jesus is not the cursed satan! But, Jesus called Peter satan for telling Jesus that GOD would not allow Jesus to get hurt, crucified or killed "suffer many things". Yet, Jesus begged GOD (Luke 6:12, Matthew 26:36-44, Matthew 16:39, Matthew 6:5-8) to save him from crucifixion and all hurt. And the Psalms all prophesied about Jesus will be saved from death and all hurt: Psalm 91, Isaiah 53, Psalms 116, 117, 118. According to Islam, GOD Almighty honored Jesus' request and saved him. The gospel of Matthew even says that Pontus Pilot was standing between two Jesus Barabba (son of his father), one who killed Roman soldiers and the other is our innocent Messiah. Pilot opposed killed Jesus and Pilot's wife got sick and had a terrifying dream warning Pilot about the sin of killing Jesus. The two double-Jesus men & Pontus Pilate in Matthew 27:16-17: [2, 1, html]. So according to Christians, GOD Almighty DENIED Jesus' cries. But of course, according to Islam, GOD honored the cries of his beloved servant and creation, Isa (Jesus), and saved him. The OT even prophesied about Jesus and Mary begging GOD and Praising GOD for saving Jesus: Psalm 91, Isaiah 53, Psalms 116, 117, 118.

Isa (Jesus), the Islamic Messiah and creation of Allah Almighty, is NOT our Creator:

Jesus, in the Bible, said he does not know when the Hour will come, only GOD alone Knows, Jesus said.

Jesus said if he bears witness of himself he would be a liar.

Jesus prostrated on his face and prayed and begged GOD all night long to save him from crucifixion.

Is Jesus greater than Adam? NT says no.

- Where is Jesus' promise??

Where was the promised Holy Spirit in their conflicting scriptures?

Remember:

If Paul is false, then Jesus is insufficient:

Sam Shamoun thoroughly demolishes trinity and the early bibles' writings. See also: 24 other thrones besides Jesus'. Virgin Mary is being group-incest-raped by some trinity members.

Some Details:

The cursed satan QUOTED Psalm 91 to Jesus challenging Jesus to jump. Jesus simply told him that yes, while the promise of GOD Almighty to protect me from all harm and death is there, but the scripture also says:

"Do not tempt GOD (Luke 2:52: GOD forgave Jesus' sins and was "charitable" with him)."

The Bible is very clear about the crucifixion being a man-made lie:

www.answering-christianity.com/psalm_91.htm
www.answering-christianity.com/isaiah_53.htm
www.answering-christianity.com/psalm_116_117_118.htm (Jesus and his mother both thanked GOD for saving Jesus)
www.answering-christianity.com/questions.htm
www.answering-christianity.com/trinity_crucified.htm

Psalm 118 & Jesus the "stone":

Furthermore, we read in Psalm 118:

Psalm 117
17 I will not die but live, and will proclaim what the LORD has done.
18 The LORD has chastened me severely, but he has not given me over to death.
19 Open for me the gates of righteousness; I will enter and give thanks to the LORD.
20 This is the gate of the LORD through which the righteous may enter.
21 I will give you thanks, for you answered me; you have become my salvation.
22 The stone the builders rejected has become the capstone; (See Matthew 21:42-43)

Yes, they beat the day lights out of Jesus (he never felt a thing), but he never died. He was never crucified. He was never given over to death. GOD Almighty saved him. I quoted Psalm 118:22 above for you to show you that the Psalm chapters and verses that I referenced are all talking about Jesus, and not anyone else.

Never felt a thing:

Again, Jesus never felt a thing. Clear proofs from the Bible and the Glorious Quran are given at:

2- Jesus himself begs GOD to save him from the crucifixion and all suffering?

Prophet Muhammad was like Prophet Moses:

From https://www.answering-christianity.com/blog/index.php?topic=3297.msg16160#msg16160:

Wa Alaikum As'salam,

Deuteronomy and the NT also make prophecy about the 10,000 believers, which only Islam fulfilled. Yes, Prophet Muhammad is the expected Prophet, who was like Moses, peace be upon them both:

Isaiah 29:12 mentions the first Quran-Revelation upon Prophet Muhammad in Cave Hira by the name. The Quran's first revelation upon Prophet Muhammad inside cave Hira.

Both Prophets received Al-Thikr (the Law). There are two Thikrs in the Glorious Quran:

1- Al-Thikr that was sent to Moses.
2- Al-Thikr that was sent to Muhammad.

Both Prophets also received:

1- Al-Kitab.
2- Al-Huda.
3- Al-Furqan.

The only Book "inherited" to them:

Also, the Book that was sent to Moses, peace be upon him, was the only one "inherited" by GOD Almighty to the Jews. Visit the links above for more details and proofs.

Zionist Israel will rule the earth with Mighty Evil! (Islamic Prophecy)

The Glorious Quran declared 1,400 years ago that the Israeli Zionist machine will rule the entire earth with mighty evil and power. They will reach "Mighty Heights" علوا كبيرا of evil power and might on earth. See Noble Verses 17:4-8:

https://www.answering-christianity.com/nuclear_doom_prophecy.htm

Also, Israel will be annihilated by people of non-Muslims and Muslims according to the Glorious Quran's Prophecy.

What does the Glorious Quran say about the Jews' mighty success and dominance in wealth, science, media and politics? "a rope from Allah and a rope from people" extended to them to enable the reaching of the Mighty Heights.

The Jews' financial domination and the Stock Market (control of the earth's wealth) are STUNNINGLY prophesied in the Glorious Quran!

Also, Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, made a stunning prophecy about the one-eyed anti-Christ who will rule the infidels and the world:

Narrated Ibn Umar: "Once Allah's Apostle stood amongst the people, glorified and praised Allah as He deserved and then mentioned the Dajjal (anti-Christ) saying, "l warn you against him (i.e. the Dajjal) and there was no prophet but warned his nation against him. No doubt, Noah warned his nation against him but I tell you about him something of which no prophet told his nation before me. You should know that he is one-eyed, and Allah is not one-eyed." (Translation of Sahih Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 55, Number 553)"

Prophet Muhammad had many visions about the dajjal, and gave many signs about him. Some of the things the Prophet said about the dajjal were literal, and some were vision-metaphors. The most prominent one is that he will be one-eyed. This is both literal and metaphoric. It is literal today because the zionist anti-Christ system is indeed represented by the ONE-EYE symbol as seen in the following images. The metaphors here are Allah Almighty not being ONE-EYED, because nothing can describe Allah Almighty. There is "none like unto Him" (Quran, 112:4). In other words also, the Prophet warned that this ONE-EYED SATANIC system will be a worshiped deity. And that false deity is not Allah Almighty. For ample more details and proofs, please visit link below.

Was the Islamic ONE-EYE Prophecy foretold before Islam in the Bible's Zechariah 11:17? I demonstrated using ample Biblical verses that the ONE-EYED DAJJAL (anti-Christ) was never prophesied in the Bible to be ONE-EYED, nor was this Sign ever given in the Bible to any being.

I also showed how Jesus Christ, from among many other verses, used this "right eye" expression. So it was never a Sign about the dajjal before Islam. It was no more than a general language of the Bible (Luke 2:52: GOD forgave Jesus' sins and was "charitable" with him).

The Bible in many verses uses "right hand" and "right eye" expressions for people and for GOD Almighty.

None of these are Signs to anything.

Also visit this website's Youtube Channel at: www.youtube.com/QuranSearchCom.

Jesus' Original Name:

Prophet Jesus' original name was Eesa, as this is also his Islamic name. The article (Eesa) also gives ample Hebrew references and proofs. Even in Latin, it is Iesu, and in Greek it is Iesus. There is also a great deal of evidence that Jesus spoke and preached in Arabic. Not only that, but Greek wasn't even that popular in Palestine. Islam's claims are very strongly supported. See proofs below.

Did early Christians preach Prophet Muhammad in Rome?

Did the early believers preach Prophet Muhammad in Corinth, Antioch, Rome and all other places? Prophet Jesus, peace be upon him, was the Jews' Messiah and final Prophet. In both the Glorious Quran and the Dead Sea Scrolls, Ahmed was prophesied to come. Ahmed in the Quran is Prophet Muhammad's prophetic name. Also, see below the Dead Sea Scroll image. The New Testament too predicts the coming of three:

1.   Elijah.
2.   The Messiah.
3.   The Prophet.

John 1:19-21 and John 7:40-44. Click on the images to expand:

John the Baptist calls Jesus a liar! (Matthew 11:1-6).

Roman massacres:

So did the early believers preach the coming of Prophet Ahmed or Muhammad? The answer is quite possible, but Muhammad would've been phase 2 for them and not phase 1. Jesus was the early believers' immediate Prophet, not Muhammad. And all of the details that they had were about Jesus, not Muhammad. It is also important to know that the following seven Roman Emperors have thoroughly burned all (burnt all) of the early believers' writings:

1.   Nero (54-68)
2.   Domitian (81-96)
3.   Marcus Aurelius (161-180)
4.   Septimius Severus (193-211; up to a point)
5.   Maximinius I Thrax (235-8; up to a point)
6.   Trajanus Decius (249-251)
7.   Valerian (253-260)

Read all the details with references here. Also visit: How big was the first New Testament?

What we have today from "gospels" and "New Testament" were written 100 years to 300 years after Jesus' departure from this earth. So, the current writings that we have are not original writings. Also, to appease the Roman Empire's 3-headed pagan religion and practices, the pagan 3-headed trinity was invented [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]. Many lies had been fabricated after the original writings were all lost. The Jews and Christians of Arabia, however, did have writings that predicted the coming of Prophet Muhammad. These were some of the original texts that survived.

The early believers were expecting an Arabian Prophet. The OT thoroughly talks about him and his new Covenant coming from Kedar in Arabia, and the NT talks about him coming after the Messiah:

From Why Jews settled in Arabia section:

Video and text are in the linked section above.

Jesus also preached in Arabic:

See the clear proofs in the following:

Proofs that early Christian believers' title was Muslims from the Jews' and Christians sources themselves. Also, Greek wasn't even the first language in Palestine, nor was it even hardly spoken by the natives there.

Also, ample proofs that Jesus also spoke and preached in Arabic, and there were many early manuscripts written in Arabic that spoke about the coming of Prophet Muhammad in details. Arabic is estimated to date back 8000 to 20000 years by non-Muslim researchers, and had always been the first language in the entire lands of the Middle East, North and Central Africa.

Prophet Muhammad in the Early Christians' writings.

Prophet Muhammad foretold , by the name, in the previous Scriptures. We still have texts today and from the Bible itself and outside the Bible that tell about the coming of Prophet Muhammad and Islam as the Servant of GOD Almighty and the New Religion and Covenant of GOD Almighty, respectively.

Important:

- What is the definition of Messiah in the Quran?
- Jesus was created from the Word of GOD and filled with the Holy Spirit, according to Islam.

In the Bible, Muslims , Salamays, Mushlams, Mushlems, Mushlimana are the Believers' original title [1]. Islam came to restore the original Faith [1].

2- Allah Almighty said that Prophet Noah lived for 950 years. Yet, all Praise and Glory are due to Allah Almighty Alone, the entire Noble Surah (chapter Noah) is exactly written in 950 Letters. You can thoroughly see the accurate count in the scanned images.

3- Allah Almighty in the Glorious Quran said that earth is:

       -  Spherical: "egg-shaped" [1].
       - Is rotating around itself.
       - Is moving in space in curvy orbits [2].
       - Is traveling through the constantly expanding universe [3].

"When the sky disintegrates, and turns rose colored like paint (وردة كالدهان)." (The Noble Quran, 55:37) [2] [3]

As we also see from the picture, Noble Verse 55:37 is a Divine Promise (Allah promised to show mankind) that mankind will actually see this come to pass one day. NASA and other space agencies, by Allah Almighty's Will, have certainly fulfilled this Prophecy, because a natural rose wouldn't form when a "Heaven" or a Solar System or even an entire galaxy and its
trillions of solar systems all blow up (explode). It is rather the look of it, and this is exactly what NASA confirms.

Coincidence? See 1,000s of examples [1].Quran's Stunning Numerical & Scientific Miracles.

Islam also thoroughly rejects as man-made lies the Trinity and Crucifixion [2]. Jesus was also thoroughly called slave of GOD [1] in both the OT and NT.

Quran: All Bibles are mostly of corrupt [1] قول (Quran 10:94 and 10s others discussed). See also the 39+ members of trinity. Jesus called every believer a Muslim in Luke 6:40.

John 5:30 "I cannot do anything on my own." (i.e., Jesus could not perform a single Miracle without GOD sending it down to him first!). I can not perform a single Miracle on my own!! I am totally POWERLESS without Allah Almighty!

John 5:31 "if I (Jesus) bear witness of myself, then I would be a liar!"

GOD didn't talk this way when He spoke to Moses. GOD's testimony alone is always sufficient! Jesus also bowed his face down to the ground, like we Muslims (Isaiah 56:5: Muslim is the future believers' name, and sons and daughters of GOD titles will be "no more"; ; Jesus called every believer a Muslim in Luke 6:40) Muslims do everyday, and prayed to GOD Almighty.
