What the Bible says about Arabs/Muslims

[James McMahon]

Was wondering the same thing...
And if I recall you Turks have a 1500-1900 year old Bible in National Museum which says something of the coming of the Prophet of the Light/Spirit of Truth from Arabian desert. What happened to it? Did you send it to Rome for inspection or?
There was so much hype about it for a while.

There was a ton of information about that in the news. But it actually was written a while after Christianity took off. Still no Muslims has been able to prove the writings of Paul, Peter, or Matthew to have been forged/changed. We have every reason to believe Jesus was/is the Messiah and literally God.

God does not exist. Therefore, everything written in this thread is meaningless.

You are shiting me right?

First Council of Nicaea was a blow to Christianity the same way how Hadiths were to Islam.

Malachi 1:2-3 2 “I have loved you,” says the Lord. But you say, “How have you loved us?” “Is not Esau Jacob’s brother?” declares the Lord. “Yet I have loved Jacob but Esau I have hated. I have laid waste his hill country and left his heritage to jackals of the desert.”

James,
Word hate here means to chose. It means that the Lord chose Jacob but not Esau. It refers actually to their descendents, Isralites ( Jacob ), and Edomites ( Esau ) which were later blessed. Muslims and Arabs have nothing to do with this.

It is not entirely certain where Edomites have ended up. But I fail to see who they would have mixed with besides the descendants of Ishmael. Unless they were assimilated by Israelites & Judahites.

The bible was written much before the Islam existed.
And have it in mind: Arabs =/= Muslims
You have non-Muslim Arabs and non-Arab Muslims.

1 - Prophet Mohammad was foretold in the bible. The name of the Prophet Mohammad in Hebrew is מַחֲמַדִּ. His name appeared at Song of Songs 5:16. This article gives more details. Some Christians tried to deny it but it's a fact.

2 - The word "Allah" appears in the arabic bible 2246 times.

3 - Muslims say there are some other passages prophesised Prophet Muhammad. Here is more in the light of chapter 1x. of Isaiah and other verses about arabs:
"Arise, shine for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee ... The multitude of camels shall cover thee, the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah; all they from Sheba shall come.. All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered together unto thee, the rams of Nebaioth shall minister unto thee: they shall come up with acceptance on mine altar, and I will glorify the house of my glory" (1-7)

4 - The bible mentioned Bakka= Mecca valley ( Mecca is the city where Prophet Muhammad was born).
Let me paste for you the following Verses from the Bible and the Noble Quran:

"Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee; in whose heart are the ways of them. Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also filleth the pools. (From the NIV Bible, Psalms 84:5-6)"

"The first House (of worship) appointed for men was that at Bakka full of blessing and of guidance for all kinds of beings: In it are signs manifest; (for example) the Station of Abraham; whoever enters it attains security; pilgrimage thereto is a duty men owe to Allah those who can afford the journey; but if any deny faith Allah stands not in need of any of his creatures. (The Noble Quran, 3:96-97)"
