Muhammad is mentioned in the Bible.

Deuteronomy 18:18(And Brethren):one notices from the Gospel of John that the Jews were waiting for the fulfillment of three distinct prophecies. The first was the coming of Christ. The second was the coming of Elijah. The third was the coming of the Prophet. This is obvious from the three questions that were posed to John the Baptist: “Now this was John’s testimony, when the Jews of Jerusalem sent priests and Levites to ask him who he was. He did not fail to confess, but confessed freely, “I am not the Christ. ” They asked him, “Then who are you? Are you Elijah? ” He said, “I am not. ” “Are you the Prophet? ” He answered, “No. ” (John 1:19-21). If we look in a Bible with cross-references, we will find in the marginal notes where the words “the Prophet” occur in John 1:21, that these words refer to the prophecy of Deuteronomy 18:15 and 18:18[1] We conclude from this that Jesus Christ is not the prophet mentioned in Deuteronomy 18:18. Isaiah 42:1-13 speaks of the servant of God, His “chosen one” and “messenger” who will bring down a law. “He will not falter or be discouraged till he establishes justice on earth. In his law the islands will put their hope. ” (Isaiah 42:4). Verse 11, connects that awaited one with the descendants of Kedar. Who is Kedar? According to Genesis 25:13, Kedar was the second son of Ishmael, the ancestor of the Prophet Muhammad. Also, this prophecy in Deuteronomy mentioned that this prophet will speak the words of God in the name of God. If we looked to the Holy Quran, we will find that all its chapters, except Chapter 9, are preceded or begin with the phrase, “In the Name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. ”Another indication (other than the prophecy in Deuteronomy) is that Isaiah ties the messenger connected with Kedar with a new song (a scripture in a new language) to be sung to the Lord (Isaiah 42:10-11). This is mentioned more clearly in the prophecy of Isaiah: “and another tongue, will he speak to this people” (Isaiah 28:11 KJV). Another related point, is that the Quran was revealed in sections over a span of twenty-three years. It is interesting to compare this with Isaiah 28 which speaks of the same thing, “For it is: Do and do, do and do, rule on rule, rule on rule; a little here, a little there. ” (Isaiah 28:10). This clearly eliminates Jesus out of the picture. "Parakletos" or "Periklytos"? :In his book "Muhammed in the Bible", Professor `Abdul-Ahad Dawud, formerly Rev. David Benjamin Keldani, Roman Catholic Bishop of Uramiah, submits a much more eloquent and scholarly presentation in defense of these assertions, far beyond the limited abilities of this humble author. For those who which to read a truly scholarly study of this matter, you may obtain a copy of that book. The following is a very brief quotation from that book:"The 'Paraclete' does not signify either 'consoler' or 'advocate'; in truth, it is not a classical word at all. The Greek orthography of the word is Paraklytos which in ecclesiastical literature is made to mean 'one called to aid, advocate, intercessor' (Dict. Grec. -Francais, by Alexandre). One need not profess to be a Greek scholar to know that the Greek word for 'comforter or consoler' is not 'Paraclytos' but 'Paracalon'. I have no Greek version of the Septuagint with me, but I remember perfectly well that the Hebrew word for 'comforter' (mnahem) in the Lamentations of Jeremiah (I. 2, 9, 16, 17, 21, etc. ) is translated into Parakaloon, from the verb Parakaloo, which means to call to, invite, exhort, console, pray, invoke. It should be noticed that there is a long alpha vowel after the consonant kappa in the 'Paracalon' which does not exist in the 'Paraclytos. ' In the phrase (He who consoles us in all our afflictions) 'paracalon' and not 'Paraclytos' is used. (I exhort, or invite, thee to work). Many other examples can be cited here. There is another Greek word for comforter or consoler, i. e. "Parygorytys' from 'I console'. .. .. The proper Greek term for 'advocate' is Sunegorus and for 'intercessor' or 'mediator' Meditea" (Muhammad in the Bible, Prof. Abdul-`Ahad Dawud, pp. 208-209)"As to why the Holy Spirit cannot be referred to in the masculine gender is not explained by Pro. "I will now, sorry that I didn't explain it in the previous round: Notice the use of "he" when referring to the Paraclete and not "it. " If we read John 16:13, we will find no less than SEVEN occurrences of the masculine pronoun "He" and "Himself. " There is not another verse in the 66 books of the Protestant Bible or the seventy three books of the Catholic Bible which contains seven masculine pronouns, or seven feminine pronouns, or even seven neuter genders. So many masculine pronouns ill befits a ghost, holy or otherwise. The word "Spirit" (Greek, pneu'ma), is of a neutral gender and is always referred to by the pronoun "it. " Mr. Ahmed Deedat says:"When this point of seven masculine pronouns was mooted by Muslims in India in their debates with the Christian missionaries, the Urdu (Indian) version of the Bible had the pronouns presently changed to SHE, SHE, SHE! so that the Muslims could not claim that this prophecy referred to Muhammad (peace be upon him) - a man! This Christian deception I have seen in the Bible myself. This is a common trickery by the missionaries, more specially in the vernacular. The very latest ruse I have stumbled across in the Afrikaans Bible, on the very verse under discussion; they have changed the word "Trooster" (Comforter), to "Voorspraak" (Mediator), and interpolated the phrase - "die Heilige Gees" - meaning THE HOLY GHOST, which phrase no Bible scholar has ever dared to interpolate into any of the multifarious English Versions. No, not even the Jehovah's witnesses. This is how the Christians manufacture God's word. " "Muhammad, the natural successor to Christ," Ahmed Deedat, p. 51 Back to John 16:12-16"For he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, [that] shall he speak:" This too is an interesting statement. It reminds us of the verses of Deuteronomy 18:18-19 which shall be discussed soon, specifically: " I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him. And it shall come to pass, [that] whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require [it] of him. " (Deuteronomy 18:18-19) It is also interesting to read the words of the Qur'an: "Nor does he (Muhammad) speak of his own desire. It is but an Inspiration that is inspired [unto him]" (Qur'an53:3-4) Angels can transform into human beings, that is how Archangel Gabriel came to Muhammad, in Human form. (See Qur'an 51:24-28 and 11:77 The story of the trial of the leper, bald man and blind man among the Children of Israel, in which it says that Allah sent an angel in human form to test them. [al-Bukhaari and Muslim]. ) All Bibles in existence today are compiled from "ancient manuscripts," the most ancient of which being those of the fourth century C. E. Any scholar of the Bible will tell us that no two ancient manuscripts are exactly identical. All Bibles in our possession today are the result of extensive cutting and pasting from these various manuscripts with no single one being the definitive reference. Songs of Solomon(Songs of Songs):Cons objection:"The Song of Songs (or Canticle of Canticles) is an exquisite collection of love lyrics, arranged to tell a dramatic tale of mutual desire and courtship. " We are talking about the 5th chapter of the book, not the whole book. Songs of Solomon 5:7 "The watchmen found me as they made their rounds in the city. They beat me, they bruised me; they took away my cloak, those watchmen of the walls! "That is indeed some love lyrics. My adversary completely ignores the Hadith and the discreptions of the verses as said in my previous rounds instead restates his previous argument. Please refer to my previous argument. The translation of Muhammadim:Ben Yehuda's Hebrew-English Dictionary defines " " as "lovely, coveted one, precious one, praised one". Isaiah 29:12:Yes it mentions the "Punishment" but then Bible speaks in Isaiah 29:12 after the mentioning of the punishment, and transitions into another subject please refer to verses 13-24. 13 Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth,and with their lips do honour me,but have removed their heart far from me,and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men:14 therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people,even a marvellous work and a wonder:for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish,and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid. 15 Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the Lord,and their works are in the dark, and they say,Who seeth us? and who knoweth us?16 Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter’s clay:for shall the work say of him that made it,He made me not? or shall the thing framed say of him that framed it,He had no understanding? 17 Is it not yet a very little while,and Lebanon shall be turned into a fruitful field,and the fruitful field shall be esteemed as a forest?18 And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book,and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity,and out of darkness.19 The meek also shall increase their joy in the Lord,and the poor among men shall rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.20 For the terrible one is brought to nought,and the scorner is consumed,and all that watch for iniquity are cut off:. .. Closing statement: I really had fun debating with you, thanks for this great debate. Thy will be done.
