The word Injeel comes from the Greek word "Engelion" which means "Good News" So why is allah using a Greek word to describe a book which was sent to the Jews when he said that he only sends messengers to people in their own language?


Surah 14:4

And We did not send any messenger except in the language of his people to state clearly for them,


You will have to answer if Jesus spoke/Preached in Greek anytime in his life time.

1. Who said they were corrupted from their beginnings? Is the new testament as it is today a revelation from God?

2. The Injeel is the revelation revealed to Jesus which he preached and transmitted to his followers. It was never written down during his lifetime.
1. You claimed earlier that the writers of the Gospel were dubious, did you not? undecided

You also claimed that Jesus Christ did not command anyone to write the Injeel revelation down, meaning it is likely lost to mankind as a result, did you not? undecided

2. Yet your Allah mentioned more than 650 years after Jesus Christ that there were followers of the injeel meaning this revelation which you claim was not given in the form of a book was transmitted either via revelation to those who your Allah mentioned or even by word of mouth or better yet in writings? undecided

The Premise is truly from me but not this conclusion.

Jesus didn't commission any book! The Injeel was transmitted by mouth at first and may have been later written down by the disciples. No one has control on what is then written and transmitted then.

2. Yet your Allah mentioned more than 650 years after Jesus Christ that there were followers of the injeel meaning this revelation which you claim was not given in the form of a book was transmitted either via revelation to those who your Allah mentioned or even by word of mouth or better yet in writings? undecided

So the words transmitted by preaching can't be spread to others? This your kind of Junkie logic baffles me!
Injeel was revealed to Jesus and he preached it to all he was able to. Some preached same message to others. Some wrote it down and transmitted them.

As time goes on additions crept in as there was standard control of those books!

I don't know where your spirit is leading you but let this be the last time you ascribe what I didn't say to me.


3. Even if we agree that the disciples wrote down the Injeel and transmitted it. They have no control of the transmission!

4. And i don't know what you mean by they continued to receive the Injeel?
1. So now your claim is the injeel revelation is the same revelation that Allah revealed to Mohammed 650 years after Jesus Christ? And so Muslims are also followers of the injeel? undecided

4. You claimed the injeel may have been a revelation given to Jesus Christ and not an actual book, and you also claimed the revelation was not written down during Jesus Christ's lifetime, yet 650 years after Jesus Christ, your Allah is recorded to have made reference to existence of those who follow the injeel, leading me to ask if instead the injeel had been passed by revelation to all those followers of Jesus Christ as well.. undecided

Any scripture would need a control and in the absence of such then the originals would go extinct! The original manuscript that was written by the disciples does not exist anywhere today! What is available is a copied copy raised to power God knows!

Simply narrate to us how the Bible was compiled and preserved ! Enough of all this front and back!

1Samuel 13:1

Evangelists, Pastors, Missionaries, and Bishops will not stop telling us that the Bible is the word of God. When we study the Bible carefully, we will discover that this is the greatest blasphemy of all time.

The book of 1Samuel 13:1 and its translation in versions of the Bible has caused a great embarrassment for Christian apologists:

1.NEW INTERNATIONAL VERSION
Saul was thirty years old when he became king, and he reigned over Israel forty- two years.

2. ENGLISH STANDARD VERSION
Saul lived for one year and then became king, and when he had reigned for two years over Israel.

3. KING JAMES BIBLE
Saul reigned one year; and when he had reigned two years over Israel

4. NET BIBLE
Saul was [thirty] years old when he began to reign; he ruled over Israel for [forty] years.

5. NEW AMERICAN STANDARD BIBLE 1977
Saul was forty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned thirty-two years over Israel.

6. JPS TANAKH 1917
Saul was --years old when he began to reign; and two years he reigned over Israel.

7. AMERICAN STANDARD VERSION
Saul was forty years old when he began to reign; and when he had reigned two years over Israel

8. YOUNG'S LITERAL VERSION
A son of a year is Saul in his reigning, yea, two years he hath reigned over Israel

The bible is far from being the word of God and as David Cross puts it, ” Back when the bible was written, then edited, then rewritten, rewritten, then re-edited, then translated from dead languages, then re-translated, then edited, then rewritten, then given to kings for them to take their favorite parts, then rewritten, then re-rewritten, then translated again, then given to the pope for him to approve, then rewritten, then edited again, then re-re-re- re-rewritten again...all based on stories that were told orally 30 to 90 years after they happened, to people who did not how to write...so..."

Any seeker of truth should not find it difficult to disregard the bible being the complete word of God rather it is a book that contains the words of God, Historians, Poets, Kings, etc...

1. I made no mention of the New Testament here. According to SlayerofSatan, the word "injeel" is derived from a greek word which translates "Good News" does it not? And the good News taught by Jesus Christ is the Gospel, is that not so? undecided

2. I am still not aware of what kind of control of transmission you insist should exist. People die.... the disciples died... what form of control do you insist would have been necessary in there case? undecided

The bulk of what we have today of scriptures are from manuscripts that predate Allah's reference to the Injeel 650 years after Jesus Christ, so are you saying those copies were already corrupted before Allah made reference to the followers of the Injeel? undecided

3. This topic here is about learning exactly when it is your claim that scripture was corrupted took place. No need for unnecessary deviations, please. I am curious to at least know if this supposed corruption took place before or after Allah made a reference to the followers of Injeel who you now claim were Muslims that predates Mohammed, suggesting Mohammed's mission really not necessary, to begin with since that would imply he brought no new revelation. undecided

That doesn't answer the question. Did the Bible say that divine messages are only to be delivered in the Hebrew language? It is the koran which is making that claim and yet instead of using a Hebrew name to describe the book that was allegedly given to Jesus, the koran uses the same Greek language in which the early Christians compiled the New Testament! Isn't it rather stupid of allah to be imitating the same Christians who he accused of corrupting his "book"?

And the Greek for "Good news" is not "Engelion" as s/he said!
Well, I think it may have been culled from a source such as this... "Evangelion" instead of "Engelion".
The Arabic word Injil (إنجيل) as found in Islamic texts, and now used also by Muslim non-Arabs and Arab non-Muslims, is derived from the Syriac Aramaic word awongaleeyoon (ܐܘܢܓܠܝܘܢ) found in the Peshitta (Syriac translation of the Bible),[1] which in turn derives from the Greek word euangelion (Εὐαγγέλιον)[2] of the originally Greek language New Testament, where it means "good news" (from Greek "Εὐ αγγέλιον"; Old English "gōdspel"; Modern English "gospel", or "evangel" as an archaism, cf. e.g. Spanish "evangelio"wink The word Injil occurs twelve times in the Quran
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gospel_in_Islam#:~:text=Injil%20(Arabic%3A%20%D8%A5%D9%86%D8%AC%D9%8A%D9%84%2C%20romanized,Gospel%20of%20Jesus%20(Isa).
Howver, the point is the Injeel is associated with Jesus Christ and what Jesus Christ brought is the Good news which is the Gospel . undecided

And no, you skated around the question, insisted instead on focusing on language when the other's focus seemed to be on the claim that Allah insisted information had to be delivered in the local language to those who it was meant for. undecided
Re: When Did Allah Say The Bible Was Corrupted And How? by SlayerofSatan: 4:20pm On Aug 13, 2022
The Koine Greek in which the New Testament is written refers to the New Testament as Engelion or Eengelion from the the world Evangelical is derived! That is also where allah got the name for what he called the Injeel!

Another question for you: Why does Yaweh's name appear several times in the koran, but allah's name doesn't appear anywhere in either the koran or the Bible?

Anyways, I still insist you answer the question rather than focus on the language factor because barring the error in his copying of the word, the question asked is a valid one. Recall, this is all about trying to figure out what point in time the Injeel was corrupted. Initially, you had claimed the writers were to blame, a claim you later attempted to deny.

Elohim is a title, not a name. Yaweh is God's name in the Bible.

Tetragrammaton is simply a way of explaining the name YHWH. The word tetragrammaton is Greek and it simply means "4 characters" referring to the 4 characters in the Judeo-Christian God's Name.

So how does one explain the fact that Yaweh appears in the koran several times while allah which in Islam is both a name and a title, NEVER appears anywhere in the Bible?

Allah is also a “title”, not a name.
Yahweh does not mean elohim. Yahweh is one of the Elohim.
Allah and Elohim mean same thing.

Tetragrammation is a way of making words with consonants.
“Yahweh” is just one of the tetragrammation of yhwh. Which was in greek, same language New Testament was written in.

Tetragrammation is simply a word. “Tetra” means 4
And grammar means letter.
The word originated before Christianity was even created. The tetragrammation is referring to the Israelite god.

You should look up on who is yahweh of shasu tribe.

Yahweh one of the tetragrammation of yhwh, is an Egyptian hieroglyphs, how is an Egyptian hieroglyphs appearing in your bible also?

When your “jesus” was alive, he called “allah” as god.

Ok, i will tell you. Matthew was aclaimed to have written Matthew. Yet in Matthew 9:9 "And as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he saith unto him, Follow me. And he arose, and followed him."

Definitely Matthew never wrote the above. And Even if we skip the above and similar ones like this, Jesus met Matthew at this point so where did he got the information prior to him meeting Jesus? How do we authenticate the facts from Matthew Ch 1-9? What are the names of those that gave him the reports or those he copied from?

Luke allegedly started his epistle with Many have undertaken to draw up an account of the things that have been fulfilled among us, 2 just as they were handed down to us by those who from the first were eyewitnesses and servants of the word. 3 With this in mind, since I myself have carefully investigated everything from the beginning, I too decided to write an orderly account for you, most excellent Theophilus, 4 so that you may know the certainty of the things you have been taught.

But the questions to be asked are 1. Who are the Eyewitnesses? Their names? Are they truthful? Forgetful? Did they really say what they claim?

And Paul that didn't meet Jesus came later and wrote about 14 Books of the NT. Is this part of the Injeel too or just plain corruption?

And lastly remember the Bible had to be canonized by some sets of Church fathers later to know which books will be included and which to be excluded at some points!

3. This topic here is about learning exactly when it is your claim that scripture was corrupted took place. No need for unnecessary deviations, please. I am curious to at least know if this supposed corruption took place before or after Allah made a reference to the followers of Injeel who you now claim were Muslims that predates Mohammed, suggesting Mohammed's mission really not necessary, to begin with since that would imply he brought no new revelation. undecided

I don't know when cos i wasn't alive then!

The original manuscripts of the New Testament books are not known to have survived This is a confirmed truth in Islam and Christianity! Allah making reference to it does not mean it is still relevant!

Allah made mention of Zabur of David 3 times in the Qur'an, Injeel of Jesus 12 times and Torah of Moses 18 times in the Qur'an. All of them had people who believed in the them and followed them after the messenger they were given to.

If Moses came with the Torah which he can be used to rule a nation then why the need for Jesus and NT?
This is understandable!

I support him because I ask that you answer the question he asked? WOW... undecided

Anyways, I still insist you answer the question rather than focus on the language factor because barring the error in his copying of the word, the question asked is a valid one. Recall, this is all about trying to figure out what point in time the Injeel was corrupted. Initially, you had claimed the writers were to blame, a claim you later attempted to deny. Now, you seem to have backtracked on that and so we are going through to find out when exactly this corruption which you claim took place. . undecided

Same way the Torah is corrupted is the same way the Injeel is corrupted!

No one knows when!

I quoted a verse for your from the OT which is one evidence that that book was not transmitted well!

Well, I think it may have been culled from a source such as this... "Evangelion" instead of "Engelion".
Howver, the point is the Injeel is associated with Jesus Christ and what Jesus Christ brought is the Good news which is the Gospel . undecided

And no, you skated around the question, insisted instead on focusing on language when the other's focus seemed to be on the claim that Allah insisted information had to be delivered in the local language to those who it was meant for. undecided

Jesus preached in Aramaic/Hebrew. But it is alleged that those who heard him wrote his message down in Greek and not in his language!
So how does this relates to

Surah 14:4 - And We did not send any messenger except in the language of his people to state clearly for them,

This implies two things: First, Allah sent down His Message in the language of the people from among whom a Prophet was raised so that they might not have any excuse left that they could not understand the language of the Message. Secondly, this ruled out the presumption that a Messenger was ever given the Message in a different language merely for the sake of a miracle. For Allah considered it more important to make the people understand the Message and guide them rightly than to satisfy their curiosity. Obviously the purpose could best be served only if the Message was sent down to them in their own language by their Prophet and not in any other.
That is, "Although the Messenger conveys the Message in the mother tongue of the people, which is understood by everyone of them, yet all of them are not guided aright. This happens because of the fact that all of those who understand a Message do not necessarily accept it. For it is entirely with Allah to show guidance by means of His Message to anyone He wills and to let go astray anyone in spite of it."
As Allah is All-Powerful, no one is able by oneself to get guidance or to go astray, for none is completely independent but is under the power of Allah. But as He is All-Wise, He does not use His power blindly so as to show guidance to anyone He wills and to let go astray anyone He desires without rhyme or reason. In fact, the one who gets guidance from Him gets it on merit and the one who is let go astray is deprived of guidance because he himself deliberately chooses deviation.

1. He lied. And you followed the lie just as you and other Christians do!

2. Ok, i will tell you. Matthew was aclaimed to have written Matthew. Yet in Matthew 9:9 "And as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he saith unto him, Follow me. And he arose, and followed him." Definitely Matthew never wrote the above. And Even if we skip the above and similar ones like this, Jesus met Matthew at this point so where did he got the information prior to him meeting Jesus? How do we authenticate the facts from Matthew Ch 1-9? What are the names of those that gave him the reports or those he copied from?

3. Luke allegedly started his epistle with Many have undertaken to draw up an account of the things that have been fulfilled among us, 2 just as they were handed down to us by those who from the first were eyewitnesses and servants of the word. 3 With this in mind, since I myself have carefully investigated everything from the beginning, I too decided to write an orderly account for you, most excellent Theophilus, 4 so that you may know the certainty of the things you have been taught.

1. He didn't lie... he simply made an error. undecided

2. Where in the Gospel according to Matthew do you read this claim that Matthew wrote the book? undecided

3. So, you are now again saying that the writers of the Injeels were dubious hence the books corrupt from their beginning? undecided

4. So, what you are now saying is that when Allah made reference to the followers of the Injeel more than 650 years after Jesus Christ, it didn't necessarily mean that the followers were in existence at that time in question. What this means is that the Injeel may have been long lost before Allah made reference to it 650 years after Jesus Christ? undecided

It still doesn't explain what Yaweh is doing in the koran!

Also, you're merely repeating my explanation of what the Tetragrammaton is. It is merely a grammatical device in the Greek language.

The fact that it is used to explain the name Yaweh does not take away from the existence of the name. In fact the name Yaweh was inscribed on the breastplate worn by the High Priest of Israel.

The Shasu tribe consisted of Moabites and Edomites both of whom are mentioned in the Bible, so the fact that they once worshipped Yaweh shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone. After all, they were older nations than Israel and Noah worshipped Yaweh as well.

As for heiroglyphs, so just because the Egyptians mentioned the name Yaweh which they came into contact with when the Israelites were their slaves means that they worship him?

Maynman:


Allah is also a title, not a name.
Yahweh does not mean elohim. Yahweh is one of the Elohim.

Tetragrammation is a way of making words with consonants.
“Yahweh” is just one of the tetragrammation of yhwh. Which was in greek, same language New Testament was written in.

Tetragrammation is simply a word. “Tetra” means 4
And grammar means letter.
The word originated before Christianity was even created. The tetragrammation is referring to the Israelite god.

You should look up on who is yahweh of shasu tribe.

Yahweh one of the tetragrammation of yhwh, is an Egyptian hieroglyphs, how is an Egyptian hieroglyphs appearing in your bible also?

Jesus referred to Yaweh as Elohim! Are you saying that Jesus prayed by saying Allhu Akbar? Think very carefully of your answer.

When your “jesus” was alive, he called “allah” as god.
