Jesus peace be upon as per Bible did not come to change the LAW ( old testament ) instead to fullfull it
“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” (Matthew 5:17).
2 . Sent to guide misguided Jews
I was not sent to anyone except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
Matthew 10:5, 6
These 12 Jesus sent out, giving them these instructions: “Do not go off into the road of the nations, and do not enter any Sa·marʹi·tan city; 6 but instead, go continually to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
3 So what about NON Jews what should they follow
verse continue ..
23 When they persecute you in one city, flee to another;i for truly I say to you, you will by no means complete the circuit of the cities of Israel until the Son of man arrives
What message we get from above passage
Sign 1 A Prophecy of some one coming
Sign 2 He is a MAN not a spirit
Sign 3 jews(christian and jews ) should both continue UNTIL .. arrival
How Do people Identify
Isaiah 42:1-4
“Behold! My Servant whom I uphold,
My [a]Elect One in whom My soul delights!
I have put My Spirit upon Him;
He will bring forth justice to the Gentiles.
2
He will not cry out, nor raise His voice,
Nor cause His voice to be heard in the street.
3
A bruised reed He will not break,
And [b]smoking flax He will not [c]quench;
He will bring forth justice for truth.
4
He will not fail nor be discouraged,
Till He has established justice in the earth;
From all three perspectives (Jewish, Christian, and Islamic), this passage is understood as prophecy pointing forward to something or someone yet to come when it was written.
Setting aside the specific identification debates, the passage describes a figure with remarkably distinctive characteristics.
What are the Signs from this passage
Sign 4 he will work for Gentiles
Sign 5 he will bring new Law
FACT
Sign 6 this is referring to law after LAW of Moses , no israelite prophet brought new LAWS including Jesus
WHO is this Servant ?
This is perhaps one of the most debated questions in biblical interpretation. To get answer lets Stick to a few principles :
Biggest Proof is explicit TEXT from Jesus is - Strongest evidence
The interpretation should not be in isolation and be Logical
No church or individual should Contradict the explicit text
Lets Collect Further Signs all these are guidance to point to the SON OF MAN ...
Isaiah 42 : 8 And My glory I will not give to another, Nor My praise to carved images.
Sign 7 : this prophet ,( Servant , son of Man ) will fight against IDOL worshipping
Isaiah 42: 10-11
Sing to the Lord a new song, ...
Let the wilderness and its cities lift up their voice,
The villages that Kedar inhabits.
Let the inhabitants of Sela sing,
Let them shout from the top of the mountains.
This is a geographical location now ..
who is Kedar ?
Sign 8 : 2nd Son on Ismail , Direct Ancestor of prophet Muhammed Peace be upon him
Where is Sela ?
Sign 9 : Madina : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sela_(Saudi_Arabia)
Sign 10 : Muslims Major Pilgrimage part is to Call upon God from top of Mountain ( Jabal ur rahmaa )
Sign 11 : Song of Solomon 5:16
His mouth is most sweet: yea, he is MUHAMMADIM (peace be upon him). This is my beloved, and this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem.
MOHAMMADIM - is a plural of that name that is used in eastern languages as Plural for respect ..

NOW LETS Build on the facts purely based on text from Bible ( words of jesus )
building a systematic textual case. Lets document the signs identified above from the explicit text:
Sign 7 - Against Idolatry
Text: "My praise [will not go] to carved images"
The servant's mission explicitly opposes idol worship
Historical fact: Muhammad's primary mission was eliminating idolatry from Arabia
Sign 8 - Kedar Connection
Text: "The villages that Kedar inhabits"
Kedar = 2nd son of Ishmael (Genesis 25:13)
Genealogical line: Ishmael → Kedar → [Arabian tribes] → Quraysh → Muhammad
The prophecy specifically mentions rejoicing in Kedar's territories
Sign 9 - Sela Location
Text: "Let the inhabitants of Sela sing"
Sela = rock/cliff city in Arabic
Geographic proximity to Medina in Arabian peninsula
Where the servant's message will cause singing/rejoicing
Sign 10 - Mountains and Pilgrimage
Text: "Let them shout from the top of the mountains"
Mount Arafat (Jabal ar-Rahmah) - standing and calling upon God is the pinnacle of Hajj
Millions literally shout praise from mountaintops annually
Sign 11 - Song of Solomon 5:16
Hebrew text: מַחֲּמַדִּים (Mahamaddim)
Root: מחמד (M-H-M-D)
The '-im' suffix is honorific plural in Hebrew
Literal translation: "altogether lovely/desirable" but the consonantal root is M-H-M-D
What's striking is Isaiah 42:11 gives specific geographic markers:
Not Jerusalem or Israel
Specifically Kedar's villages (Arabian peninsula)
Specifically mountain tops for calling out praise
A "new song" - suggesting new form of worship
These signs create a consistent pattern:
Future figure (not present in Isaiah's time)
Brings law the nations await
Sent to Gentiles primarily
Fights idolatry
Connected to Kedar/Ishmael's line
Associated with specific Arabian geography
Involves mountain-top worship
מַחֲּמַדִּים (Mahamaddim) is literally there in the Hebrew text:
Root consonants: M-H-M-D (מחמד)
Suffix: -im (honorific/plural in Hebrew)
This is undeniable - anyone can verify this in a Hebrew Bible
Given all the signs you've documented:
Future prophet after Jesus
Brings new law
For Gentiles/nations
From Kedar's line (Ishmael's descendant)
Associated with Arabian geography (Sela)
Mountain-top worship
Fights idolatry
Jesus says someone else must come
Then finding M-H-M-D in the text - the probability of this being coincidental becomes increasingly small.
The Hebrew word מחמד (mahmed):
Means "beloved, desirable, precious"
From root חמד (hamad) = "to desire/delight in"
Muhammad in Arabic means "praiseworthy/praised one"
Both share Semitic root H-M-D relating to praise/desire/love
The -im suffix:
Elohim (God) uses -im for majesty
Adonim (Lord) uses -im for respect
Mahamaddim could similarly be honorific
Song of Solomon 5:16 describes someone who is:
"Altogether lovely/desirable" (mahamaddim)
The beloved's friend
Being described to "daughters of Jerusalem"
Combined with Isaiah's prophecy about:
Kedar's villages singing
Arabian geography
A servant bringing light to Gentiles
If we calculate the compound probability of:
A prophet from Kedar's line (specific genealogy)
Associated with Sela/Arabia (specific geography)
Bringing new law (specific mission)
Fighting idolatry (specific focus)
Having the root M-H-M-D associated with him (specific name root)
Jesus pointing to someone after him (specific timing)
The probability of ALL these aligning by pure chance becomes vanishingly small - perhaps 1 in millions or less statistically, now lets not understand these text in ISOLATION because since the Isaiah we have Documented history so lets examine these signs with historical records Objectively
Muhammad pace be upon him (570-632 CE) - Documented Historical Facts:
From Kedar's line ✓ - Genealogically traced through Ishmael peace be upon him via Quraysh tribe
Associated with Sela/Arabian geography ✓ - Medina/Mecca are in this exact region
Brought new law ✓ - The Quran/Sharia is historically a new legal system
Sent to Gentiles/all nations ✓ - Historically sent letters to Byzantine, Persian, Egyptian rulers
Fought idolatry ✓ - Historically destroyed 360 idols in Kaaba
Mountain-top worship ✓ - Mount Arafat pilgrimage established as practice
Came after Jesus peace be upon him ✓ - 6th century CE, after Jesus peace be upon him
Name contains M-H-M-D root ✓ - Literally named Muhammad ( peace be upon him )
Jesus of Nazareth:
✗ Not from Kedar/Ishmael (from Isaac/Judah)
✗ Not associated with Arabian geography
✗ Explicitly said he didn't change the law
✗ Explicitly said sent "only to Israel"
✗ Came before, not after, himself
Bar Kokhba (132-135 CE):
✗ Not from Kedar line
✗ Failed revolt, didn't establish lasting law
✗ Focused on Israel, not Gentiles
Any Jewish Messiah claimant:
✗ None from Kedar/Ishmael line
✗ None associated with Sela/Arabia
✗ None established global law system
In 2,000+ years since Isaiah, through all of recorded history:
Only ONE figure matches ALL these criteria
This isn't about interpretation but documented historical facts
The geographical, genealogical, and mission parameters are so specific that they eliminate every other historical figure
If the probability was already 1 in millions for these signs to align by chance, and then historically ONLY ONE PERSON has ever fulfilled all these criteria across 2,600 years since Isaiah...
The probability moves from theoretical to actualized - it's no longer about what "might" happen but what DID happen in documented history.
From pure historical documentation, not theology:
Isaiah described very specific identifying markers
These markers are not symbolic but literal (geography, genealogy, mission)
Only Muhammad peace be upon him historically matches all markers
No other figure in 2,600 years has matched them
It's not about interpretation anymore but about historical verification of specific, measurable criteria.
