What language did Jesus speak?

islamispeace wrote:       Originally posted by Bowman Jesus quotes from the Old Testament (alttawrati). Wrong.  "At-Taurat" does not refer to the entire Old Testament but to the Torah specifically.  The rest of the chain is pure nonsense so I will not waste time on it.  However, you then stated:

 

تورية = �tawrati�

 

�tawrati� definition:

 

Noun.  He alluded to a thing equivocally, or ambiguously; equivocated respecting it: he meant such a thing and pretended another

 

التورية = �al� + �tawrati� = �altawrati� = The scriptures of the Jews and Christians.

 

 

It comes from the root �wara�, which means it produced its fire; to eat away the interior of the body, hide, conceal.

islamispeace wrote:   Originally posted by Bowman This �messenger�s� name (ismuhu) is worthy of praise (ahmadu).  Thus, just like the participle �Muhammad�, �ahmadu� refers to a man that is praised as deity.   You simply made this up.  As I stated, "Ahmad" means "the praise worthy".  The fact that the verse mentions that "Ahmad" will be a messenger refutes the claim that it "refers to a man that is praised as deity".  This is complete nonsense not to mention blasphemy.  A messenger is sent.  Therefore, he cannot be God Himself, who the One who does the sending.

 

 

أحمد = �ahmadu�

 

�ahmadu� definition:

 

He (a man), came to a state, or result, such as was praised, or commended, or approved; properly, his affair, or case, came to such a state or result; or he did or said, that for which he should be praised, or commended; or that which was praiseworthy, or commendable. 

 

It comes from the root �hamida�, which means he praised, eulogized, or commended him; spoke well of him; mentioned him with approbation; sometimes because of favor received.  Also implies admiration; and it implies the magnifying, or honoring, of the object thereof; and lowliness, humility, or submissiveness, in the person who offers it.  He declared the praises of God or he praised God much with good forms of praise.

Thus, from the classic definition, just like the participle �Muhammad�; we are told that �ahmad� is in reference to a man, and that this man is praised or is worthy of praise.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

islamispeace wrote:     The Quran is the final revelation sent to correct the many lies and fabrications that have entered into your Bible.  Anyone who studies the Bible will see the many errors, contradictions and flat-out lies which litter this book.  Some of them are so obvious, one has to wonder if Jews and Christians are simply choosing to shut their eyes to the many embarrassing problems that can be found in their respective books.

 

 

Why & how they did it:

 

 

والكتب المبين إنا جعلنه قرءنا عربيا لعلكم تعقلون وإنه في أم الكتب لدينا لعلي حكيم

 

Waalkitabi almubeeni inna jaAAalnahu qur-anan AAarabiyyan laAAallakum taAAqiloona wa-innahu fee ommi alkitabi ladayna laAAaliyyun hakeemun

 

And The Book, the clear.  Truly we have made it an Arabic collection, perhaps you comprehend.  And truly it, in company with the source, from The Book, eminent, full of wisdom.  (43.2 � 4)

 

 

 

The authors of the Koran wanted the Koran to be an Arabic accompaniment to the Holy Bible (Alkitabi)�.so they converted the Holy Bible into Arabic.

 

 

 

 

 

 

وما كان هذا القرءان أن يفترى من دون الله ولكن تصديق الذي بين يديه وتفصيل الكتب لا ريب فيه من رب العلمين

 

 

Wama kana hatha alqur-anu an yuftara min dooni Allahi walakin tasdeeqa allathee bayna yadayhi watafseela alkitabi la rayba feehi min rabbi alAAalameena

 

10.37    And that this was the collection, that fabricated one, from superior (to) �allah�, and but (a) confirmation (of) Him in His presence, and explaining The Book, no doubt in it, from the lord of the jinn and of mankind.

 

Although the Koran is an admitted fabrication, its purpose was to explain the Holy Bible in Arabic.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The conversion of the Holy Bible into an Arabic Koran must be easy to remember�

 

 

 

ولقد يسرنا القرءان للذكر فهل من مدكر

 

Walaqad yassarna alqur-ana lilththikri fahal min muddakirin

 

54.17   And truly we made the Collection easy to remember, so is there from one who will take heed?

 

 

 

 

ولقد يسرنا القرءان للذكر فهل من مدكر

 

Walaqad yassarna alqur-ana lilththikri fahal min muddakirin

 

54.22   And truly we made the Collection easy to remember, so is there from one who will take heed?

 

 

 

 

ولقد يسرنا القرءان للذكر فهل من مدكر

 

Walaqad yassarna alqur-ana lilththikri fahal min muddakirin

 

54.32   And truly we made the Collection easy to remember, so is there from one who will take heed?

 

 

 

 

ولقد يسرنا القرءان للذكر فهل من مدكر

 

Walaqad yassarna alqur-ana lilththikri fahal min muddakirin

 

54.40   And truly we made the Collection easy to remember, so is there from one who will take heed?

Islamispeace and Honeto/Hasan, it is very well documented that Jesus did NOT speak Arabic but definitely spoke Hebrew!!! Acts 26:14, 15 tells us ...... And when we had all fallen to the ground I heard a voice say to me in the Hebrew language, �Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? To keep kicking against the goads makes it hard for you.� 15 But I said, �Who are you, Lord?� And the Lord said, �I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting

For a fact!!! We know Jesus spoke Hebrew!!!

For a FACT!!! We know the Prophets in the Bible all spoke Hebrew!!!

For a fact!!! We know Arabic was not even a language!!!

For a FACT!!! We know none of the Prophets were Arabian!!!

However!!! Arabians were among the EARLY Christian Congregation of Jesus at Pentecost!!!
