      If Mr. Williams felt Mr. Tabor was a threat to Islam, the latter would not be invited. The Quran is more about Muhammad than Jesus and hence the reason why little is said about his teachings which would have conflicted with Muhammad's way of doing things.

So please don't assume something what you don't know......believing in Jesus PBUH and all other previous prophet is the central tenets of Islam.....actually Muhammad PBUH taught every Muslim to beleive in Jesus PBUH but first he removed all the forgeries of so called Christian scribes and taught us about the real historical Jesus Christ and his teachings which is same as Muhammad PBUH .....Muhammad PBUH even left a space besides his grave for Jesus PBUHs burial when he will die after his second coming...!! the message was all along was simple beleive in one God and worship him without associating any partner( Christians do the exact opposite the trinity is just another form of associating partner with God,actually Christians should be called paulian because they follow the work of Paul not the Christ).....Dr Tabors scholarly works just proves that if you remove the forgeries of later scribes and forgeries of Paul then the core message is exactly same as Islam.....beleive in one God and Give charity simple...!! There is no one who is threat to Islam,those who speaks against Islam doesn't have any biblical understanding like Dr Tabor they never ever produce any proof...just shows forgeries of scribes to prove their point....which can be easily dismantled...

Nevertheless, we need to obey God’s commandments and apply them to gain his Mercy. Here are two beautiful hadiths of the prophet Muhammad ﷺ about this subject.
      Anas reported God’s messenger as saying, "All the sons of Adam are sinners, but the best of sinners are those who are given to repentance."
      Aisha reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Follow the right course, be devoted, and give glad tidings. Verily, none of you will enter Paradise by his deeds alone.” They said, “Not even you, O Messenger of Allah?” The Prophet said, “Not even me, unless Allah grants me His mercy.

    Early followers of Jesus view him to be a PROPHET in the Bible. Here’s the proof…
    Matthew 21:10-11
    10 "When Jesus entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred and asked, “Who is this?' 11 "The crowds answered, “This is Jesus, the PROPHET from Nazareth in Galilee.”
    (Jesus)
    Luke 13:33
    33 "Nevertheless I must walk today, and tomorrow, and the day following: for it cannot be that a PROPHET perish out of Jerusalem.”
    Luke 24:19
    19 “What things?” he asked. “About Jesus of Nazareth,” they replied. “He was a PROPHET, powerful in word and deed before God and all the people.
    Matthew 13:57
    57 “And they were deeply offended and refused to believe in him. Then Jesus told them, “A PROPHET is honored everywhere except in his own hometown and among his own family.”
    Matthew 5:17
    17 “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.”
    Acts 2:22
    22 “Fellow Israelites, listen to this: Jesus of Nazareth was a MAN accredited by God to you by miracles, wonders and signs, which God did among you through him, as you yourselves know.”
    Even those who witness his miracles at first hand called him a Great Prophet!
    Luke 7:15-16
    15 "The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus gave him back to his mother." 16 "They were all filled with awe and praised God. “A great PROPHET has appeared among us,” they said.”
    John 9:17
    17 “Then they turned again to the blind man, “What have you to say about him? It was your eyes he opened.” The man replied, “He is a PROPHET.”
    John 4:19
    19 “Sir,” the woman said, “I can see that you are a PROPHET.“
    So who should we believe? Those who knew, met, and witness his miracles or those who NEVER met him nor ate/drank with him telling us he’s “god” or “son of god”?
    May Allah GUIDE those who are sincere and honest before it’s too late for them.

      @@renatovasquez6041 Jesus in the Bible was a Muslim because he preached and worshiped only ONE God exactly the same way Muslims preach and worship ONE God (pure monotheism). Here's proof from both the Holy Quran and the Bible….
      1) Holy Quran 5:72
      72 "They have certainly disbelieved who say, " Allah is the Messiah, the son of Mary" while the Messiah has said, "O Children of Israel, worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord." Indeed, he who associates others with Allah - Allah has forbidden him Paradise, and his refuge is the Fire. And there are not for the wrongdoers any helpers."
      Holy Quran 19:36
      36 [Jesus said], "And indeed, Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. That is a straight path."
      Now let’s take a look what Jesus has said in the Bible and commanded his followers to do so...
      Mark 12:29
      29 “The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord OUR God, the Lord is ONE."
      John 17:3
      3 "Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have SENT."
      Luke 18:19
      19 “Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good-except God alone.”
      John 14:24
      24 “Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who SENT me.”
      John 5:30
      30 “By myself I can do nothing; I judge only as I hear, and my judgment is just, for I seek not to please myself but him who SENT me.”
      Matthew 15:24
      24 He answered, “I was SENT only to the lost sheep of Israel.”
      Matthew 26:39
      39 "Going a little farther, he fell with his FACE to the GROUND and prayed."
      Noticed how Jesus (peace be upon him) always gives credit to God Almighty and he worships his Creator just like Muslims do by placing his head on the ground.
      2) Jesus also called his lord as Allah just like Muslims do today. Here's the Aramaic proof...
      Jesus spoke Aramaic NOT Hebrew which most people think. The word for God in Aramaic is Alah or Allah which is a slight accent/dialect within the Semitic language. Even the Christian scholars who were behind the film Passion of Christ do acknowledge and confirm that Jesus has always called his Lord as Allah...
      ruclips.net/video/gRr48TIpzro/видео.html
      3) Jesus also greeted people exactly like the Muslims do by, saying Assalaamu Alaykum in Aramaic. Here's the Biblical proof...
      John 20:21
      21 "Again Jesus said, “Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.”
      Luke 24:36
      36 "While they were still talking about this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, "Peace be with you."
      4) And finally, Jesus himself and those who met and knew him had called him, a Great Prophet exactly the way Muslims refer to him. Here's more Biblical proof...
      Matthew 21:10-11
      10 "When Jesus entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred and asked, “Who is this?' 11 "The crowds answered, “This is Jesus, the PROPHET from Nazareth in Galilee.”
      (Jesus)
      Luke 13:33
      33 "Nevertheless I must walk today, and tomorrow, and the day following: for it cannot be that a PROPHET perish out of Jerusalem.”
      Luke 24:19
      19 “What things?” he asked. “About Jesus of Nazareth,” they replied. “He was a PROPHET, powerful in word and deed before God and all the people.
      Matthew 13:57
      57 “And they were deeply offended and refused to believe in him. Then Jesus told them, “A PROPHET is honored everywhere except in his own hometown and among his own family.”
      Matthew 5:17
      17 “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.”
      Acts 2:22
      22 “Fellow Israelites, listen to this: Jesus of Nazareth was a MAN accredited by God to you by miracles, wonders and signs, which God did among you through him, as you yourselves know.”
      Even those who witness his miracles at first hand called him a Great Prophet!
      Luke 7:15-16
      15 "The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus gave him back to his mother." 16 "They were all filled with awe and praised God. “A great PROPHET has appeared among us,” they said.”
      John 9:17
      17 “Then they turned again to the blind man, “What have you to say about him? It was your eyes he opened.” The man replied, “He is a PROPHET.”
      John 4:19
      19 “Sir,” the woman said, “I can see that you are a PROPHET.“
      So who should we believe? Those who knew, met, and witness his miracles or those who NEVER met him nor ate/drank with him telling us he’s “god” or “son of god”?
      Seriously, those people need to study the Bible carefully and thoroughly about what Jesus himself said because their eternal salvation depends on it.
      Jesus prayed to and worshiped Allah only yet they refused and want to pray and worship Allah’s creation (Jesus) instead of the Creator who is Allah. If they continue to reject the true teachings of Prophet Jesus, then Jesus himself has already warned them on what he will do/say to those who claimed to worship him on the Day of Judgment when he and everyone else are in front of Allah Almighty.
      Matthew 7:22-23
      22 “Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ 23 Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!”
      Subhan’Allah! Sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction. Even the word Hallelujah is the same as Alhamdullilah since both words are praising Allah in his actual name yet they don’t even realize it. May Allah guide them and continue to guide us.
      Jazakallah Khair and Assalaamu Alaykum (Peace Be With You).

But back when I was still a Christian my mindset would be: "ok I don't know the deal between those three, but the practice should be as what is taught by Jesus"... but then I see Jesus taught me to worship God... Then I was like "if Jesus is God himself then why didn't he make clear of this... Regarding the wisdom you could use parables, but regarding the law you should clearly say I am the God (in fact yes Jesus did such regarding the father)"

      How come you left out verse 21? Jesus connects following him in order to get to heaven completely debunking what Dr Tabor was rambling on about. I noticed Muslims and Atheists love to choose what they read and ignore huge parts of what Jesus said Mark 10:21 Jesus looked at him and loved him. “One thing you lack,” he said. “Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”

      Dear Jim, but Mark: but Mark 10:21 still did not mention what the Church teach its followers " believe in my blood, or my sacrifice or my resurrection..." it is all about doing good work and by the mercy of God (in Islam) or by "God's grace" in the original teaching of Jesus we can be saved.
      Think of the Lord's prayer , the condition for forgiveness, is forgive us as we forgive others! That prayer agree with Islamic creed.. and yet it did not mention the redeeming blood, the sacrifice and resurrection..
      I I am just exchanging thought here, and respect your faith etc.. May God guide you and me and all. Amin

    Yes , they did . Thomas addressed Jesus as God (to His face) and Jesus never rebuked him. Why ? Because He is God .
    The apostle John opened His gospel stating Jesus existed with His Father BEFORE the creation of the world and unequivocally states Jesus “was God,” (1:1). In the book of Revelation, John writes that Jesus uses the title “First and and the Last ,”
    (Revelation 1:11,17), a title used in both the Old Testament and the Quran for God.
    The apostle Peter refers to Jesus as “God and Saviour ,” (2 Peter 1:1).

    Jesus in the Bible was a Muslim because he preached and worshiped only ONE God exactly the same way Muslims preach and worship ONE God (pure monotheism). Here's proof from both the Holy Quran and the Bible….
    1) Holy Quran 5:72
    72 "They have certainly disbelieved who say, " Allah is the Messiah, the son of Mary" while the Messiah has said, "O Children of Israel, worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord." Indeed, he who associates others with Allah - Allah has forbidden him Paradise, and his refuge is the Fire. And there are not for the wrongdoers any helpers."
    Holy Quran 19:36
    36 [Jesus said], "And indeed, Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. That is a straight path."
    Now let’s take a look what Jesus has said in the Bible and commanded his followers to do so...
    Mark 12:29
    29 “The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord OUR God, the Lord is ONE."
    John 17:3
    3 "Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have SENT."
    Luke 18:19
    19 “Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good-except God alone.”
    John 14:24
    24 “Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who SENT me.”
    John 5:30
    30 “By myself I can do nothing; I judge only as I hear, and my judgment is just, for I seek not to please myself but him who SENT me.”
    Matthew 15:24
    24 He answered, “I was SENT only to the lost sheep of Israel.”
    Matthew 26:39
    39 "Going a little farther, he fell with his FACE to the GROUND and prayed."
    Noticed how Jesus (peace be upon him) always gives credit to God Almighty and he worships his Creator just like Muslims do by placing his head on the ground.
    2) Jesus also called his lord as Allah just like Muslims do today. Here's the Aramaic proof...
    Jesus spoke Aramaic NOT Hebrew which most people think. The word for God in Aramaic is Alah or Allah which is a slight accent/dialect within the Semitic language. Even the Christian scholars who were behind the film Passion of Christ do acknowledge and confirm that Jesus has always called his Lord as Allah...
    ruclips.net/video/gRr48TIpzro/видео.html
    3) Jesus also greeted people exactly like the Muslims do by, saying Assalaamu Alaykum in Aramaic. Here's the Biblical proof...
    John 20:21
    21 "Again Jesus said, “Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.”
    Luke 24:36
    36 "While they were still talking about this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, "Peace be with you."
    4) And finally, Jesus himself and those who met and knew him had called him, a Great Prophet exactly the way Muslims refer to him. Here's more Biblical proof...
    Matthew 21:10-11
    10 "When Jesus entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred and asked, “Who is this?' 11 "The crowds answered, “This is Jesus, the PROPHET from Nazareth in Galilee.”
    (Jesus)
    Luke 13:33
    33 "Nevertheless I must walk today, and tomorrow, and the day following: for it cannot be that a PROPHET perish out of Jerusalem.”
    Luke 24:19
    19 “What things?” he asked. “About Jesus of Nazareth,” they replied. “He was a PROPHET, powerful in word and deed before God and all the people.
    Matthew 13:57
    57 “And they were deeply offended and refused to believe in him. Then Jesus told them, “A PROPHET is honored everywhere except in his own hometown and among his own family.”
    Matthew 5:17
    17 “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.”
    Acts 2:22
    22 “Fellow Israelites, listen to this: Jesus of Nazareth was a MAN accredited by God to you by miracles, wonders and signs, which God did among you through him, as you yourselves know.”
    Even those who witness his miracles at first hand called him a Great Prophet!
    Luke 7:15-16
    15 "The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus gave him back to his mother." 16 "They were all filled with awe and praised God. “A great PROPHET has appeared among us,” they said.”
    John 9:17
    17 “Then they turned again to the blind man, “What have you to say about him? It was your eyes he opened.” The man replied, “He is a PROPHET.”
    John 4:19
    19 “Sir,” the woman said, “I can see that you are a PROPHET.“
    So who should we believe? Those who knew, met, and witness his miracles or those who NEVER met him nor ate/drank with him telling us he’s “god” or “son of god”?
    Seriously, those people need to study the Bible carefully and thoroughly about what Jesus himself said because their eternal salvation depends on it.
    Jesus prayed to and worshiped Allah only yet they refused and want to pray and worship Allah’s creation (Jesus) instead of the Creator who is Allah. If they continue to reject the true teachings of Prophet Jesus, then Jesus himself has already warned them on what he will do/say to those who claimed to worship him on the Day of Judgment when he and everyone else are in front of Allah Almighty.
    Matthew 7:22-23
    22 “Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ 23 Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!”
    Subhan’Allah! Sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction. Even the word Hallelujah is the same as Alhamdullilah since both words are praising Allah in his actual name yet they don’t even realize it. May Allah guide them and continue to guide us.
    Jazakallah Khair and Assalaamu Alaykum (Peace Be With You).

      I agree that it's a very "important subject" for us to consider. And it does not matter what religion we profess. What matters is taking time to listen and to be respectful. We can't assume that the information from one scholar is necessarily the "truth" about God almighty. I just wish Paul would invite some traditional Christian scholars who believe in Jesus' divinity.

    The 2 big differences between the New Testament and the Quran seem to be between the claims that Jesus died and that he rightfully has the title and identity of "son of God".
    It's not nonsense about whether or not he's God. It's obvious none of the authors of the New Testament thought he was God, it's not even an argument. I look forward to the day that Christians and Muslims discuss these actual differences and not waste time arguing over the Trinity.

    He is the Christ son of God. Jesus is the Son of Man. Why? When the disciples come to where he is praying, Jesus asks: “Who are men saying the Son of man is?” They reply: “Some say John the Baptist, others Elijah, and still others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” Yes, people think that Jesus may actually be one of those men raised from the dead. To draw out their thinking, Jesus asks his disciples: “You, though, who do you say I am?” Peter quickly replies: “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”​-Matthew 16:13-16.

    Dr. James, I really wish that you examine the truthfulness of Muhammad and the Quran. Don't you find our claim to be thrilling? If the Quran is really dictated to Muhammad by God, wouldn't that make it the most precious of documents? Why take our claim seriously? At least because enough people vouch for it so as to make it the soon-to-be largest religion in the world! If your investigation bears fruit, you gain infinity, and if it does not, you still gain knowledge useful to your specialization; you lose not. Thanks for your time.

      ​​​@@seekthetruthandthetruthwil2388 Keep dreaming. Until reality of the day of judgement hits you. Jesus will deny all his worshippers. Imagine entrusting your eternal life to a fellow human being without Actual proof he has any power to save you. I think that's a careless thing to do considering there is no returning to this world. When we die, that's it. So its best to be wise and read the scriptures with an open mind that you may be guided. Eternal life means forever in Hell or in Paradise depending on your Deeds and Beliefs. Qur'an chapter 5:16-18.
      "And (mention) when Allah will say (on the Day of Resurrection): “O ‘Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary)! Did you say unto men: ‘Worship me and my mother as two gods besides Allah?’ ” He will say: “Glory be to You! It was not for me to say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing, You would surely have known it. You know what is in my inner-self though I do not know what is in Yours, truly, You, only You, are the All-Knower of all that is hidden and unseen.
      117."I never told them anything except what You commanded me to say: “Worship Allah-my Lord and your Lord!” And I was witness over them as long as I remained among them. But when You took me,1 You were the Witness over them-and You are a Witness over all things."
      118" If You punish them, they belong to You after all.1 But if You forgive them, You are surely the Almighty, All-Wise.”

    1:12:49 🔖🔖 Dr. Tabor said many many eye-0pening stuff:
    he mentioned the Matthew 25
    I went and read it, (wow wow wow, now I need to find time to read the whole NT or even the whole OT AND NT>..) because when I read it before my Islamic knoweldge (especially Quranic verses) was not as strong as now..
    Hear is Matthew 25, read it carefully please, see what the .
    read this The Parable of the Ten Bridesmaids, obviously it shows 2 groups one prepare for Judgement Day and another are not, notice verse 8 in particular:
    Matthew 25:1-13
    25 “Then the kingdom of heaven will be like this. Ten bridesmaid took their lamps and went to meet the bridegroom.b 2 Five of them were foolish, and five were wise. 3 When the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them; 4 but the wise took flasks of oil with their lamps. 5 As the bridegroom was delayed, all of them became drowsy and slept. 6 But at midnight there was a shout, ‘Look! Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.’ 7 Then all those bridesmaid got up and trimmed their lamps. 8 The foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’ 9 But the wise replied, ‘No! there will not be enough for you and for us; you had better go to the dealers and buy some for yourselves.’ 10 And while they went to buy it, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went with him into the wedding banquet; and the door was shut. 11 Later the other bridesmaids came also, saying, ‘Lord, lord, open to us.’ 12 But he replied, ‘Truly I tell you, I do not know you.’ 13 Keep awake therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour."
    I got shiver and goosebumps because it echoed this Quranic verses...
    Now having read Jesus words above, please read these verses in the Quran:
    12. "On that Day you will see believing men and women with their light shining ahead of them and on their right. ˹They will be told,˺ “Today you have good news of Gardens, under which rivers flow, ˹for you˺ to stay in forever. This is ˹truly˺ the ultimate triumph.”
    13. On that Day hypocrite men and women will beg the believers, “Wait for us so that we may have some of your light.” It will be said ˹mockingly˺, “Go back ˹to the world˺ and seek a light ˹there˺!” Then a ˹separating˺ wall with a gate will be erected between them. On the near side will be grace and on the far side will be torment.
    14. The tormented will cry out to those graced, “Were we not with you?” They will reply, “Yes ˹you were˺. But you chose to be tempted ˹by hypocrisy˺, ˹eagerly˺ awaited ˹our demise˺, doubted ˹the truth˺, and were deluded by false hopes until Allah’s decree ˹of your death˺ came to pass. And ˹so˺ the Chief Deceiver1 deceived you about Allah.
    15. So Today no ransom will be accepted from you ˹hypocrites˺, nor from the disbelievers. Your home is the Fire-it is the ˹only˺ fitting place for you. What an evil destination!”
    Also Dr Tabor may also meant to link the end of that passage in Matt to
    notice also when Jesus said the door was closed and what they say:
    " 10 And while they went to buy it, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went with him into the wedding banquet; and the door was shut. 11 Later the other bridesmaids came also, saying, ‘Lord, lord, open to us.’ 12 But he replied, ‘Truly I tell you, I do not know you.’ 13 Keep awake therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour."
    the wall =the door
    Gospel "you had better go to the dealers and buy some for yourselves" = " It will be said ˹mockingly˺, “Go back ˹to the world˺ and seek a light ˹there˺!” "
    also it evokes OTHER passages in the Quran and the bible Mathew :
    I think Dr. Tabor (knows some thing about Islam) notice just before that "he said I am not saying this to cater for you because you are a Muslim.." he was telling him subtly it echoed the Quran..
    not only it evokes the verses I gave above!!
    He may have meant this part of the message:
    "12 But he replied, ‘Truly I tell you, I do not know you.’ 13 Keep awake therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour." that you just read, which evoke the other Mathew passage:Matt 7-22-23
    "Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers* " Matt 7-22-23
    (another translation says, instead of evildoers
    "you who break God's laws"
    another says "you workers of lawlessness" ) !’ " Mat 7-22-23.
    Who abolished the law? PAUL , Paul who called Jesus a curse for us and to replace the curse of the law!! how could he dare to call Jesus and the law that God gave Moses curse!!!!!!
    Ask Who prophecies in the name of Jesus and and in your name drive out demons? who does that? aren't they the Christians of today!!
    but because they abolished the law, and called him "Lord! Lord !in the sense of God" he will deny knowing them!! because he did not teach them that!! He said keep the law not even a tittle not even a jot etc.. he said God is one!! No wonder he would not recognize them and rebuke them!!
    And trust me it may sound harsh on these who say "lord lord" on that day.. but remember
    if they were sincere they would have been guided.. rather they used Jesus name to earn money and get money to heal people on night channels !!
    shaking their hand and making fake actors walk again etc..
    The scene can be echoed here in this Quranic verse: (this dialogue will happen either after or before the Matthew you just read above" :
    "And ˹on Judgment Day˺ Allah will say, “O Jesus, son of Mary! Did you ever ask the people to worship you and your mother as gods besides Allah?” He will answer, “Glory be to You! How could I ever say what I had no right to say? If I had said such a thing, you would have certainly known it. You know what is ˹hidden˺ within me, but I do not know what is within You. Indeed, You ˹alone˺ are the Knower of all unseen.
    -God knows if Jesus did or did not, but to let his worshipers hear the truth from Jesus mouth...
    so that Matthew 7: 22-23 may come after this verse as in (please help us we did miracles in your name, you can't leave us like that... please lord lord.. and he will tell them away from me evil doers I never knew you"
    or Matthew 22-23 comes first in day of Judgement they will come and ask Jesus Lord lord, and then God will ask Jesus before them "did you say ..."
    all link to the bridesmaids
    "Later the other bridesmaids came also, saying, ‘Lord, lord, open to us.’ 12 But he replied, ‘Truly I tell you, I do not know you.’ 13 Keep awake therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour."
    the wall (in Quran) =the door (in the Gospel)
    But Tabor said all this subtly
    he started by saying "allllllllllllllllllll nations will be gathered on that day"
    he made emphasis on that too why? I think Paul did not realize it...
    Dr. Tabor may may have had in mind also this Verse In Quran:
    "And you will see every nation kneeling [from fear]. Every nation will be called to its record [and told], "Today you will be recompensed for what you used to do."
    Dr. may meant only "did you say take me and my mother as ..." verse, or the nations all well be gathered and judged by their deeds not by the blood etc..
    or both..
    if so it means, though he is not scholar of Quran, he has good knoweldge of it... or maybe he meant one reference and I just draw more parallel from the Bridesmaids verses!!
    Great video, thank you both Paul and Dr. Tabor, may God (Allaha in Aramaic, Allah in Arabic) grant both of you light, wisdom, mercy, love and above all guidance and all of us amin.
    thanks

      dont take Jesus and his mother as deity (catholic do,) they pray to Mary,

      Seek, brother, Allah in the Quran says stop saying three "to the trinitarian"..but also he in another verse, addressed the other group who venerate and worship God throw Mary.. I am surprised that you affirm that no one worship Mary! I have seen with my eyes.. they stand and kneel and pray to her statues .. they carry picture of her in their wallets, hand bags...
      Some pagan Arabs at that time knew that, how would Allah (or Muhammad pbuh ignore that fact?
      If Muhammad pbuh copied the bible, which you have insinuate many times, then how could it agree with some minute details that can be found in the bible, and deny major creed crucifixion which was believed by many even pagan Arab heard of it.
      Why would a false prophet care for that... or care to praise a Jew woman Mary peace be upon her.
      Quran shows that Allah chose Mary as the best woman of her time (the only female mentioned by name in the Quran ) and never mentioned Muhammad's own Wife whom he loved and was the first Human to believe in him and or Abu Baker (the first man who believed in his message.. or his own daughter Fatimah?
      this is deduction using inference..
      There are plenty of example where Quran corrected the bible (and never copied errors in the bible..) that is another sign.. never mentioned an incest stories in the bible.. why not .. a copier would do that..
      I am reasoning by inference and deduction.. (notice I don't preach I just use logical argument)

      Son to jews meant what? Trinitarian crap or an expression they used for prophets and holy men?
      That is what reading in context means.
      If you want to pretend he was speaking of the trinity, you have t prove that Jews used that expression in that manner.
      They didn't. So if you read and see that expression in context of its Jewish speaking crowd, you'd be a Unitarian first and foremost.

    Understand, the Biblical terminology in ancient times regarding Son or Father meant in a figurative sense but never in the literal sense. To be called Son in those times meant, you were a RIGHTEOUS person. In fact, even in today's world, when an old man calls a young man, Son or says, "come here my son" it's considered an HONOR and RESPECT. However, that doesn't mean, you're his real son.
    Also, most Christians call their priest or Bishop as Father but that doesn't mean he's their "real" father. It's really important to know that when discussing the matter of Jesus and his relationship to the Creator of the heavens and earth. It's also equally important to know that Adam, Abraham, Moses, Solomon, David, etc are also called Son of God in the Bible which further illustrate that point. If the title of Son of God was unique to only Jesus than those Prophets wouldn't have been called Son of God either.

    so we know from you Kristian debater's that suffering servant of GOD (abed of GOD) in Isaiah 53 prophecy rejected by mankind not because he claimed divinity just because of lack of quality , lack of beauty bad looking guy , sick guy . Isaiah 52/53 -He was despised and rejected by mankind,
    a man of suffering, and familiar with pain,
    Like one from whom people hide their faces.
    he was despised, and we held him in low esteem. Man of Sorrows. .we know Jesus rejected because. he claimed to be the son of GOD. SO that suffering servant of GOD (abed of GOD) PROPHECY not apply to Jesus.Quite the opposite. Christ was beautiful in appearance, and he was not sick, and he was treating patients, and he did not suffer from pain in his body for a long period of his life. If the matter is true, then the end of the Christian religion. The story of the crucifixion was fabricated. The doctrine of redemption (human sacrifice ) was also fabricated to show Christ as he was the suffering servant of GOD (abed of GOD) in Isaiah 53 prophecy.this prophecy not apply to both Jesus and Mohammad and also Israel peoples.THIS A FUTURE COMING MAN. this servant will com from Kaaba {{ Isaiah 52 }}.
    The house of God in the bible who wears clothes is the Kaaba, it is Zion, it is the New Jerusalem, it is the Kaaba,
    There is no house for God on earth to wear clothes like a bride completely, except the Kaaba in the holly city mecca
    it is just like a bride dressed.
    So Muhammad is the lam of the new Jerusalem, in the Book of Revelation.
    By the way, the Kaaba is located in a dry valley. A plant called Wadi Bakkah in the psalm of David eighty-four.. psalm. David 84
    and this does not apply with Jerusalem in Palestine, Israel, because the Solomon's temple has no clothes.
    It was completely destroyed and it was prophesied. Jesus Christ predict the destruction of temple. Solomon twice after his ascension to heaven Mathew 24.
    Isaiah 52:6
    6 Therefore my people know my name. Therefore, on that day, they will know that it is I who speak. Here I am
    so the name of god in mecca new Jerusalem is Allah
    read Isaiah 53:1-5.
    this man is not Jesus ,not Mohamed. some one in future.not yet .he will com in the house of god witch has clothes. the only house of god that has clothes is the Kaaba in holly city mecca.
    Isaiah 52:1 speak about this house of god the Kaaba see this video.
    ruclips.net/video/h4t3aqEMbgE/видео.html
    Here's your text with some corrections:
    We have learned from Kristian debaters that the suffering servant of GOD (Abed of GOD) in the Isaiah 53 prophecy was rejected by mankind not because he claimed divinity, but due to his perceived lack of quality and beauty. He was considered a bad-looking and sickly individual. In Isaiah 52/53, it is mentioned that he was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering familiar with pain. People would hide their faces from him, and he was held in low esteem. This individual is often referred to as the "Man of Sorrows."
    We also know that Jesus was rejected because he claimed to be the Son of GOD, not because of his appearance or health. Therefore, the suffering servant of GOD (Abed of GOD) prophecy does not apply to Jesus. In fact, Christ was considered beautiful in appearance, healthy, and was known to heal the sick. He did not experience prolonged physical suffering as described in the prophecy.
    If this interpretation is accurate, it would challenge the story of the crucifixion and the doctrine of redemption through human sacrifice, which portray Christ as the suffering servant of GOD in the Isaiah 53 prophecy. This prophecy, according to your perspective, does not apply to Jesus, Mohammad, or the people of Israel. Instead, it is believed to refer to a future individual who will come from the Kaaba.
    In the Bible, the house of God wearing clothes is symbolized by the Kaaba. This symbol is associated with Zion, the New Jerusalem, and the Kaaba itself. This concept is not applicable to Solomon's temple in Jerusalem, which was destroyed and prophesied by Jesus Christ in Matthew 24 after his ascension to heaven.
    Isaiah 52:6 suggests that on a specific day, God's name will be known to his people. The name of God associated with the Kaaba and the new Jerusalem in Mecca is Allah.
    The passage Isaiah 53:1-5 is said to describe a future individual who is neither Jesus nor Muhammad. This person is expected to come to the house of God which is represented by the Kaaba in Mecca, the only house of God described as having clothes.
    Isaiah 52:1 refers to the house of God, the Kaaba. You can watch a video discussing this topic at the following link: ruclips.net/video/h4t3aqEMbgE/видео.html

    Psalms 110 v 1 to 5
    Qouted by messiah in john and peter in acts clearly shows one sitting at Gods postion of authority...right hand and has a high priest role.
    So they knew for sure he was Davids lord and so their lord.

      But of course Muslims will say "This is indeed the truth..." because the discussion with Dr James Tabor correlates positively with the Quranic beliefs of Islam. That's one reason why Paul keeps inviting such scholars to this channel.
      By the way, I'm not trying to be disrespectful to you or Paul or Dr. Tabor. I actually appreciate this discussion because I'm no scholar and I'm always open-minded to learn things.
      From my understanding, if Jesus was not divine and sent by God the Father, then Christianity and specifically the crucifixion of Jesus becomes meaningless.

Historically, the Gospels have never been attributed to any other authors besides Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. And I believe Matthew and John definitely knew Jesus and followed Him. And since the Gospels were written down in a strong oral culture, the stories of Jesus would have been preserved in an accurate manner.
      Anyhow, I'm not trying to be disrespectful to you or to be confrontational. I try to respect Muslims. In fact, I accept the "authentic narrations" within the Quran. My problem is acceptance of the belief that the Quranic verses are actually given or inspired by God (Allah). I struggle to understand some of the verses in the Quran, especially those regarding Jesus' crucifixion.
      I respect the strong discipline that most Muslims exhibit in their religious life.
      Anyhow, I'm learning slowly about Islam. I need to seek to follow the example of Jesus, Who gave us the ultimate meaning of God's love.

    Well they’re following him; during his lifetime and hearing his sermons and messages; …..they’re a mass followinging of ebionites…. Then Jesus suddenly is crucified seemingly out of nowhere. So they’re all left out in the cold; following James at that point. Holy Spirit comes on them; Jesus tells some of them what the plan was; for that to happen. And so the dispute would arise about Jesus message and following and then his sacrifice on the cross happening to save the nations. You can see a division of ideas happening some time after that.

      The Muslim helps you with your scriptures. Please read you Bible thoroughly.
      You've brought up the sandal thing which is in the last Gospel - the Gospel of John. It's the author of John playing up Jesus and trying his best to try to do damage control just like Matthew tried before him.
      So much for "sinless" Jesus.
      Mark 1:4
      And so John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.
      ..........
      Mark 1:9
      At that time Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
      So the evidence is there that John the Baptist was preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. Jesus was baptized FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS
      The author of Matthew couldn't really digest this and so he improved the "Word of God" in Mark and made it as if John wanted to be baptised by Jesus and all that drama. Same thing happening with the author of John trying to play up Jesus.
      Even if for the sake of argument I say that indeed John had amazing praise for Jesus, the bottom line still remains that BOTH these Prophets of God praised each other and showed mutual respect. Jesus calling John the greatest man born of a woman whereas John praising Jesus over himself.

    Unlike Christians who teach that Luke is an independent gospel that doesn't copy others as sources, the author of Luke doesn't deny that they uses Mark as their source but admits it: Peshitta Luke:1:1-4 "Since many have been disposed to write narratives of those events, of which we have full assurance, as they delivered them to us, who from the first were eye-witnesses and ministers of the word; it seemed proper for me also, as I had examined them all accurately, to write out the whole, methodically, for thee, excellent Theophilus: that thou mayest know the truth of the statements, which thou hast been taught." This means that the author clearly knew it, had read it and maybe owned their own copy. However, some scholars have recently criticized that the Teophilos prefaces might be later forgeries rather than being part of the original text and they would have been added only to deceive the readers. So that's why I'm not entirely sure.

    14 And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed." You want to honestly tell me you don't see any divine person besides God almighty there? Who can be given an eternal dominion? Mark 14,61 : But he remained silent and made no answer. Again the high priest asked him, “Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?” And Jesus said, “I am, and you will see the Son of Man seated at the right hand of Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.” Mark 13:26:And then they will see the Son of Man coming in clouds with great power and glory.
    Not divine? Seriously?

      Having said that we must know that Jesus initially didn't go around claiming to be God. People would have killed him straight away. The initial Gospels of course reflect that when narrating Jesus's life. We must also understand that Jesus on earth was not God almighty, but the "Son of God"- meaning human in form but the spirit of God inside him. That explains his divine nature quite well. It also explains while Jesus talked to the Father, whose spirit was inside him but his body was nevertheless physical- meaning he was not God almighty. Nevertheless the spirit inside him was of God and after the resurrection that transformed body united again with his spirit making it possible for Jesus to be the WORD, that sitteth at the right hand side of God. God almighty gave him all authority, Jesus was there in the beginning with God and shall return to judge all of us. That's the only truth. You may reject it and decide to follow whatever else but you shall share the faith of your spiritual father who is the greatest plotter and liar. Its his voice that pleases you, I know, its his voice you prefer.... but know for sure that this is the only truth and the Qur’an is inspired and dictated by that greatest plotter and liar to deceive as many as possible. Repent therefore ❤
