    Interesting. Moses makes the Israelites sacrifice their own golden calf, and what's more, they do it begrudgingly.

    'Abridged' version of the ten commandments, it would appear.

    The Qur'an: The Cow

    First mention of both Jesus and the Holy Spirit. That would account for 2/3 of the Christian Trinity (God the Father [Allah] and the Holy Spirit). The Qur'an has not yet, nor do I think it will, declare Jesus (Isa) as part of that Trinity.

    Very interesting. Because of the proximity to the other verse referring to Jesus, it would seem as though this is saying Israel is cursed for rejecting Jesus. Wow.

    If this pattern holds through, I could see it as a foundation for the hatred Muslims have for Jews. So far most of this book has been about God (Allah) ranting all over Israel because of their disobedience and hard-heartedness.

    Where do I begin; I don’t believe the GOD of the Jews is Allah. This is why, the Torah and Old Testament prophesies of the coming of the Messiah. The New Testament in Jesus Christ fulfills that prophesy. The prophesy of the second coming has not yet been fulfilled. No where is there mentioned any other prophets except false prophets.

    There are some very important differences between the God of the Bible and Allah:
    God's only begotten son is Jesus. Allah has no begotten son.
    God made salvation available by sacrificing His Son and promises salvation by grace to those who believe. Allah sacrificed nothing, and only saves if sufficient works are done.
    God has a payment for sins—Jesus Christ. Allah has no payment for sins.
    God's Christ paid for the sins of mankind. Allah paid for nothing, and all men pay for their own sins.
    God's salvation is through Christ's work. Allah's salvation is through people's works.
    God's saving work is, "Come to Christ." The major part of Moslem salvation is to believe Mohammed was the sum and seal of the prophets.
    God's book is very different from Allah's book. They contradict each other, so they cannot both be true. For example, the Bible says Christ was resurrected from the dead. The Moslems reject that as a lie.
    God says his Son is the Way, the Truth and the Life. Allah says Christ is "only a messenger"
    God treats men and women equally. Allah does not.
    God says marriages today (Christian) are to be monogamous. Allah allows more than one wife.
    There is no marriage in God's Paradise. Faithful men get many virgins in Allah's.
    God says it is not necessary to have special days. Allah does: for example, Ramadan, the Moslem holy month during which Moslems fast during the day.
