The Gospel according to John.

Understanding the Gospels. 

Throughout the Gospel Jesus is teaching the Torah in the same way as every prophet in the Jewish Scripture is teaching the Torah. 

The word of God in the Gospel is everything that does not contradict the Tanakh Jewish Scripture. 

Whatever contradicts the Tanakh Jewish Scripture did not come from Jesus but from the unknown writers of the Gospels. 

The Gospels are a test to show who understands God in the Tanakh Jewish Scripture as described in 1 Kings 13:14 - 13:24 teaching that the word of God will not change and do not believe anyone who claims the word of God has changed.

Explain Gospel of John 19:2.

Gospel of John 19:2 And the (Roman) soldiers, after weaving a wreath of thorns, set it on his (Jesus) head, and threw a purple robe around him (Jesus).

Gospel of John 19:3 Then they were approaching him and saying, "Hail, O king of the Jews," and giving him slaps in the face.

Comment:

1. Explain Gospel of John 19:3.

Gospel of John 19:3 Then they (the Roman soldiers) were approaching him (Jesus) and saying, "Hail, O king of the Jews," and giving him (Jesus) slaps in the face.

2. Just as 2000 years ago some Roman soldiers mocked Jesus to show their disbelief in Jesus in the same way some of the Jews mocked Jesus 1400 years ago to show their disbelief in both Jesus and Muhammad.

Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 And they (some of the Jews of Yathrib in Arabia later Medina Arabia today Madinah Saudi Arabia) said (showing their pride and their disbelief by threatening and mocking the messenger Prophet Muhammad and his followers by boasting), "We killed messiah Jesus Isa, the son of Mary Maryam, the messenger of God," but (in fact) they did not kill him (on the cross) nor crucify him (to death on the cross), but it was made to appear so to them (so they believed he was dead on the cross because his body was not moving but in fact he was still alive and sleeping on the cross as explained in Quran 4:158 and 39:42) and those (Jews of Yathrib Arabia) who differ in this (in what happened to Prophet Jesus Isa on the cross) are full of doubts with no (certain) knowledge so they (the Jews of Yathrib) follow only conjecture (assumptions, speculation, guess). It is certain that they (the Jews) did not kill him (because God protected Prophet Jesus Isa from the death of crucifixion in 607 BH 33 CE 33 AD on Friday 3 April 33 in Jerusalem Al-Quds Yerussalem Yerushalayim in Judea today in Israel and Palestine and this is confirmed in the Gospel Injil where Jesus Isa is seen alive three days after the crucifixion teaching that he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross. 2000 years ago God saved the life of humans with sleep so that their body did not move making everyone think they were dead in the Injil Gospel of Mark 5:39 "... The child is not dead but sleeping", Gospel of Matthew 9:24 "... For the maiden meaning the girl has not died but sleeps ..." and the Gospel of Luke 8:52 "... She is not dead but sleeping". To prepare to test the faith of Prophet Jesus Isa by the threat of death by crucifixion God through the Holy Spirit removed from the mind of Prophet Jesus Isa the earlier events where God had saved people with sleep that looked like death by revealing the story of Lazarus in the Injil Gospel of John 11:11 – 11:14 where the Holy Spirit reveals to Jesus that sleep for Lazarus means Lazarus is dead. This was done so that Prophet Jesus Isa will believe he will die in the same way as Prophet Abraham Ibrahim believed his son would die. Prophet Jesus Isa passed the test of faith in God and God saved Prophet Jesus Isa like God saved the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim so that Prophet Jesus Isa could continue his life on the earth when God returned the soul from heaven to wake up the sleeping body on the earth as God had done before in the Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 “…"Damsel meaning girl, wake up!" And her spirit returned, and she stood up at once, and he ordered that she be given something to eat. This was proof that she was alive and not dead. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa was alive on the earth as proof that no one killed him on the cross or crucified him to death. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa taught the people that he is not God until his natural death 2000 years ago in Quran 5:75, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:117 and in all the four Gospels Injil. It is in the life of Prophet Jesus Isa after the crucifixion that Jesus told the people that he is not God so that no one will be able to claim in the hereafter that Prophet Jesus Isa did not tell them he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36).

Note 0. God saved Jesus Isa from death on the cross in Quran 4:157 and 4:158 so that Jesus Isa could continue his life and then die 2000 years ago like every human before him and after him has died in Quran 5:75 and 3:144. The natural death of Jesus Isa 2000 years ago is proof to the people in his time that Jesus Isa is human like every other human and he is not God or an equal partner with God.   

(Note 1. Just as 2000 years ago some Roman soldiers in Jerusalem Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine mocked Jesus to show their disbelief in Jesus in the same way some of the Jews of Yathrib Arabia today in Saudi Arabia mocked Jesus 1400 years ago to show their disbelief in both Jesus and Muhammad.

See Gospel of John 19:3.

(Note 2. God protected the life of Jesus from the death of crucifixion by giving sleep to the body of Jesus and raising the soul of Jesus to heaven and to God just as every human soul is raised to heaven and to God during sleep.

(Note 3. God saved Jesus by making the body of Jesus fall into sleep on the cross so although it appeared that Jesus had died on the cross from the death of crucifixion as is correctly described in the Gospel by those who saw it infact God saved Jesus from the death of crucifixion by God giving sleep to the body of Jesus as is revealed by the prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26 – 15:27, 16:7 – 16:15 see in Reference 1 at the end of the Gospel of John.

(Note 4. Prophet Muhammad confirms he is the prophet and messenger after Jesus by confirming that the Gospel correctly describes what the people saw which appeared to be the killing of Jesus and revealing in the Quran how God saved Jesus.

(Note 5. Three days after the crucifixion Jesus said he did not die.

Three days after the crucifixion Jesus told Mary Magdalene to tell all the disciples that Jesus did not die on the cross in Gospel of John 20:17 “I have not yet ascended to the Father” meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with a miracle which made people think Jesus was dead on the cross in the same way God made people believe a sleeping person was dead in Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24 and Gospel of Luke 8:52.

The soul of every human ascends to God during sleep and when they die (Quran 39:42).

When Jesus says “I (Jesus) have not yet ascended to the Father (God)” Jesus is not talking about sleep because every human ascends to God every night during sleep therefore the meaning is Jesus has not yet died meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with sleep (Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24, Gospel of Luke 8:52, Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42) meaning Jesus did not die on the cross with death but was saved on the cross with sleep which looked like Jesus was dead and in this way God saved the life of Jesus meaning no one killed Jesus (Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 and Quran 39:42) meaning no one crucified Jesus to death (Quran 4:157) meaning Jesus was not sacrificed but was saved from death with sleep in Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42 for the same reason God saved the son of Abraham from death in a test of the faith in God of Abraham and Jesus.

When Jesus says "I (Jesus) am ascending to my Father (God) and your Father (God)" it means Jesus will die like every human dies meaning Jesus died a natural death at the end of his life 2000 years ago (Quran 3:144 and Quran 5:75) as proof Jesus is human and as proof Jesus is not God.

Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus says to her (Mary Magdalene), "Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father (God); but go to my brothers (my disciples), and tell them: 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father; to my God and your God.'"

Note 1. After the crucifixion Jesus says do not hold on to me to see if I am really alive, I have not yet ascended to my Father meaning I am not yet dead meaning I am really alive meaning I am not a ghost.

(Note 6. The prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus confirmed and explained Gospel of John 20:17 where Jesus said he did not die on the cross.

Quran 39:42 Koran 39:42 God takes the souls at the time of their death and (also takes the souls of) those who have not died (but are alive) during their sleep (when God saved the life of Jesus Isa with sleep so that his body did not move making everyone believe that Jesus Isa was dead on the cross in Quran 4:157 by raising the soul of Jesus Isa to heaven and to God in Quran 4:158). He (God) keeps those (souls) for which He (God) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls to awaken the sleeping body) for a predetermined period of time (such as when God returned the soul of Jesus Isa three days after the crucifixion to wake up the sleeping body of Jesus Isa on the earth in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 when Jesus Isa delivered the message that Jesus Isa is not God by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross, after which they return to sleep again or die as in Quran 5:75 where Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa “use to eat food” meaning they both died 2000 years ago and Quran 3:144 where the “the messengers before Prophet Muhammad have died” meaning Jesus Isa is dead because Jesus Isa is the messenger before Prophet Muhammad. In Quran 5:117 Jesus died when he lived with the children of Israel 2000 years ago when he was raised by the angel of death). In this are signs (of God) for people who think.

Gospel of John 19:4 And Pilate went outside again, and says to them, "Look, I am bringing him out to you, so that you will know that I find no causa capitalis in him."

Comment:

Explain Gospel of John 19:4.

Gospel of John 19:4 And Pilate went outside again, and says to them (the crowd of people), "Look, I (Governor Pilate) am bringing him (Jesus) out to you, so that you will know that I (Governor Pilate) find no causa capitalis (no basis on which Jesus is guilty of any crime) in him."

(Note 1. See Gospel of John 18:38 comment).

Gospel of John 19:5 Jesus came outside therefore, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. And Pilate says to them, "Behold the man."

Gospel of John 19:6 When therefore the chief priests and their officers saw him, they shouted out, saying, "Crucify! Crucify!" Pilate says to them, "You take him yourselves and crucify him. As for me, I do not find causa capitalis in him.

Comment:

Explain Gospel of John 19:6.

Gospel of John 19:6 When therefore the chief priests (from the second House of God on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. Al-Quds) and their officers saw him (Jesus), they shouted out, saying, "Crucify! Crucify!" Pilate says to them, "You take him yourselves and crucify him. As for me, I do not find causa capitalis (no basis on which Jesus is guilty of any crime) in him.

(Note 1. See Gospel of John 18:38 comment).

Gospel of John 19:7 The Jews answered him, "We have a law, and according to that law, he deserves to die because he called himself the son of God."

Comment:

1. Explain Gospel of John 19:7.

Gospel of John 19:7 The Jews answered him, "We have a law, and according to that law, he deserves to die because he called himself the son of God" (meaning the servant of God, the slave of God in Judaism or meaning a real biological son of God in Greek Roman thinking. See 1 Kings 13:14 - 13:24 teaching that the word of God will not change and do not believe anyone who claims the word of God has changed). 

To call any person the son of God which means the servant of God in Judaism was not blasphemy 2000 years ago or today meaning Gospel of John 19:7 was invented by a Greek Roman because in Greek Roman thinking the words son of God was a real biological son of God. 

How to correctly analyse scripture.

Some people misunderstand the meaning of son of God as a real biological son of God like Greek Roman sons of God were real biological sons of God.

The meaning of son of God is the Jewish meaning which is servant of God in Tanakh Jewish scripture.

.

1. Son means servant.

Deuteronomy 14:1 You are the children of the LORD your God

.

2. Son means servant.

Exodus 4:22 And you (Moses) shall say to Pharaoh Firon, The Lord (God) says, “Israel is My son, My first born.” (Meaning, Israel is God’s servant because they believe in God).

.. 

Exodus 4:23 And I (God) have said to you (Pharaoh), “Let My son (meaning My servant) go so that he may serve Me (God) and you (Pharaoh) have refused to let him go …”

.

3. Son means servant.

2 Samuel 7:14 I (God) will be to him for a father, and he shall be to Me (God) for a son; if he commit wrongdoing, I (God) will punish him with the rod of men, and with the stripes of the children of men; 

.

4. Son means servant.

Quran 19:93 Koran 19:93 There is no one in the heavens and the earth who does not come to the Most Merciful (God) except as a servant. 

.

5. To call any person the son of God which means the servant of God in Judaism was not blasphemy 2000 years ago or today meaning Gospel of John 19:7 and Gospel of Matthew 26:63-65 was invented by Greek Romans because in Greek Roman thinking the words son of God was a real biological son of God. 

.

Gospel of John 19:7 The Jews answered him, "We have a law, and according to that law, he deserves to die because he called himself the son of God" (meaning the servant of God, the slave of God in Judaism or meaning a real biological son of God in Greek Roman thinking. See 1 Kings 13:14 - 13:24 teaching that the word of God will not change and do not believe anyone who claims the word of God has changed). 

.

Gospel of Matthew 26:63 But Jesus was keeping silent. And the high priest said to him, "I adjure you by the living God that you declare under oath whether you are the Messiah, the Son of God" (meaning the servant of God, the slave of God in Judaism or meaning a real biological son of God in Greek Roman thinking. See 1 Kings 13:14 - 13:24 teaching that the word of God will not change and do not believe anyone who claims the word of God has changed) 

.

6. Gospel of John 19:7 and Gospel of Matthew 26:63-65 is not from Jesus or God but is a test described in 1 Kings 13:14 - 13:24 teaching that the word of God will not change and do not believe anyone who claims the word of God has changed.

In the Torah son of God means servant of God meaning every person is a servant of God..

This means no Jew 2000 years ago or today would have said that a son of God means anything except a servant of God in Gospel of John 19:7 and Gospel of Matthew 26:63-65.

The Gospel of John 19:7 and Gospel of Matthew 26:63-65 was written by Greek Romans because son of God means servant of God in Judaism, showing that the claim of blasphemy in Gospel of John 19:7 and Gospel of Matthew 26:63-65 was written by Greek Romans because 2000 years ago only Greek Romans believed “son of God” was a real biological son of God and therefore was blasphemy (but this is not blasphemy in Judaism where son of God means servant of God).

.

7. There are two ways of understanding the Gospel.

One way is the Greek way of thinking 2000 years ago based on the idol worship of gods who had sons meaning real biological sons or the Jewish way based on one God who has sons meaning servants for example every angel and every human is a son of God meaning a servant of God because God is the creator of every creation.

Only the Jewish way is correct because the Gospel says it is quoting from the Jewish scripture in Gospel of Luke 24:44 and Jesus is Jewish.

Christians who are using the Greek thinking of 2000 years ago might think that son of God meaning a real biological son means Jesus is God.

Other Christians who are using the Jewish thinking in Tanakh which Jesus said will never change and must be followed by the Jewish people forever in Gospel of Matthew 5:17 - 5:20 and Gospel of Matthew 23:1 - 23:3 understand that son of God meaning servant means Jesus is a servant of God.

.

8. Scriptures like the Gospels which say they are quoting from the Tanakh are a test to show who understands Tanakh by following the word of God and who does not understand the Tanakh by contradicting the word of God in Tanakh and this is explained in 1 Kings 13:14 - 13:24 teaching that the word of God will not change and do not believe anyone who claims the word of God has changed even if a prophet comes to you and tells you that God has changed His word do not obey him but obey God because God is testing you to show if you love God by obeying the word of God which does not change as explained in Deuteronomy 13:2 - 13:4.

.

9. Sometimes the Gospel contradicts the Tanakh however some publishers of the Gospels have added footnotes explaining problem verses in the past therefore Christians in the present or in future can add footnotes to show verses that cannot be true such as the claim that Jesus descended from David because it contradicts the Tanakh (where a person can only inherit a tribe like David biologically through the father and not by adoption and not through the mother and not by choice) which Jesus said will never change and must be followed forever in Gospel of Matthew 5:17 - 5:20 and Gospel of Matthew 23:1 - 23:3.

.

10. In the Quran Prophet Jesus Isa did not claim he inherited the House of David Dawud because it is impossible for anyone without a biological father to inherit a tribe in Judaism meaning the Quran confirms the Tanakh Jewish scripture so that today Christians can use both the Tanakh which they follow and the Quran to identify which verses in the Gospel Injil came from God in a test from God described in 1 Kings 13:14 - 13:24 teaching that the word of God will not change and do not believe anyone (for example Mark, Matthew, Luke and John) if in stories they claim the word of God has changed meaning God is one and not three in one and meaning God is not a man and God is not in the form of a man. 

.

11. The Quran tells Christians to follow the Gospel and Torah because what Paul and others teach outside the Gospel is opposite to what Jesus is teaching in the Gospels.

.

12. Whatever in the Gospel contradicts the Torah came from Mark, Matthew, Luke or John and not from Jesus or God in a test from God described in 1 Kings 13:14 - 13:24 teaching that the word of God will not change and do not believe anyone who claims the word of God has changed. 

2. The false accusation against Jesus of sedition (treason, subversion, troublemaking) by claiming that Jesus though Jesus was a king.

See Gospel of John 18:38 comment

3. The false accusation against Jesus of blasphemy (wickedness).

3-1. The false claim that it is blasphemy to claim to be a servant of God.

Gospel of Matthew 26:63 But Jesus was keeping silent. And the high priest (from the second House of God on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. Al-Quds) said to him (Jesus), "I adjure (request) you by the living God that you declare under oath whether you are the Messiah, the Son of God (meaning the servant of God, the slave of God)."

(Note 1. Son of God means servant of God in the Torah, Gospel and Quran.

To be a servant of God is not blasphemy because God said all the children of Israel are “his son” meaning his servants.

Torah Exodus 4:22 And you (Moses) shall say to Pharaoh, The Lord (God) says, “Israel is My son, My first born.” (Meaning, Israel is God’s servant because they believe in God).

Torah Exodus 4:23 And I (God) have said to you (Pharaoh), “Let My son (meaning My servant) go so that he may serve Me (God) and you (Pharaoh) have refused to let him go…”)

(Note 1. In the Torah all the children of Israel are called the son of God meaning the servant of God because they believe in God.

(Note 2. Jesus is one of the children of Israel therefore Jesus is a son of God meaning a servant of God because Jesus believes in God.

(Note 3. The Gospel is the story of one of the children of Israel named Jesus who is a son of God meaning a servant of God.

Gospel of John 1:12 But to all who did receive him (Jesus the messenger of God), to those believing on his name (the prophet and messenger and messiah Jesus), he (God) gave the right to become children of God (meaning servants of God, believers of God, slaves of God, those who are obedient to God)

Gospel of Matthew 26:64 Jesus says to him, "You said that. Nevertheless I (Jesus) say to you: after now (meaning later) you shall all see the Son of Man (Jesus who is a human prophet and messenger of God) sitting at the right hand of the Power (God, the right hand of God means sitting with the righteous), and coming on the clouds of heaven (on the Day of Judgement)."

Quran 39:69 Koran 39:69 And the earth (meaning, the land in the hereafter) shall shine with the light of its Lord (God, when God shall come to judge men and women on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement) and the Book (of their good and bad deeds) shall be shown. (In the judgement of each person) the Prophets (the messenger of God in the time of that person or the messenger of God that the person claimed to follow) and the witnesses (the Holy angels including the Holy Spirit and humans) shall be brought and it (the good and bad deeds of men and women) shall be judged between them (the Prophets and the witnesses and the Book of their good and bad deeds) with (the) truth (as God decreed) and they (those who are judged) shall not be wronged (by any incorrect judgement of what they did during their lifetime on the Earth).

(Note 1. The prophet who is the messenger of God that each person claimed to follow or who lived during their time will be present at their judgement on the Day of Judgement.

3-2. The false claim that it is blasphemy to claim that God is your Father (the creator, who should be obeyed just as a person should obey their father).

God the Father is not a biological relationship because Jesus said that God is not only his Father but God is the Father of every human.

Father means that God is the creator of every human including the human Jesus. 

Gospel of John 20:17 “… (Jesus says) 'I (Jesus meaning the soul of Jesus) am ascending to my Father and your Father; to my God and your God.'

(Note 1. Jesus said that God is not only his Father but God is the Father of every human.

(Note 2. The God that created Jesus is the same God that created every human.

(Note 3. The God that created Jesus is the same God that created every creation.

(Note 4. Every soul is created by God and ascends to Heaven and to God.

(Note 5. The souls of prophets such as Moses and Elijah and Jesus ascended to Heaven and to God but their human bodies were buried and hidden in the Earth to prevent the adoption of human idol worship. 

3-3. The false claim that Jesus blasphemed by making himself equal to God.

No one is equal to God. 

Gospel of John 14:28 "… If you loved me, you would rejoice that I (Jesus) am going to the Father (God), for the Father (God) is greater than I (Jesus).

(Note 1. God is greater than Jesus because the soul of Jesus which is a creation is going to God who is the creator.

(Note 2. The soul of Jesus is a creation that is going to God who is the creator of every human soul.

(Note 3. No one can be greater than the creator.

(Note 4. Every soul is created by God and returns to Heaven and to God.

(Note 5. Gospel of John 10:29 “… he (God) is greater than all …”

Gospel of John 10:29 My Father (God), the one who gave them (the followers of Jesus) to me (Jesus who is the messenger of God), he (God) is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them (the followers of Jesus) from the Father's (God’s) hand (because what God has decreed no one can alter).

Gospel of Matthew 23:9 (Jesus said) and call no one on earth (including Jesus) your father (God), because there is only one father (God) for you, the heavenly one …”

(Note 1. Jesus said that God is not only his Father but God is the Father of every human.

(Note 2. No one on the Earth is God because everything on the Earth is created by God.

God is not in one place however to make clear that Jesus is not God the expression “God in heaven” is used to show that Jesus who is on the Earth is not God).

3-4. The false accusation that Jesus claimed to be God. 

Gospel of John 5:18 For this reason the (leaders of the) Jews (in the second Temple of God) tried all the more to kill him, because (they incorrectly thought that) not only was he (Jesus) breaking the Sabbath (which God had ordered but which Jesus denied violating in the Gospel of John 5:17), but (they also incorrectly thought that) he (Jesus) was also saying God was his own (biological) father (and therefore), making himself (Jesus) equal to God (which Jesus denies in the Gospel of John 5:19 – 5:30).

Gospel of John 10:30 I (Jesus) and the Father (God) are one (because every truthful messenger speaks in the name of God exactly what God has decreed them to speak)."

(Note 1. Torah Deuteronomy 18:18 (Therefore) I (God) shall raise up for them (the children of Israel) a prophet (Prophet Joshua Yusha followed by prophet after prophet, messenger after messenger) like you (Prophet Moses Musa who delivered the Torah Taurat 3200 years ago when you were at Mount Sinai Horeb today in Egypt) from among their brothers brethren (The children of Israel are brothers and brethren to each other. The children of Esau are brothers and brethren to the children of Israel through Jacob Yaqub Israel who is the brother of Esau. The children of Ishmael Ismail are brothers and brethren to the children of Israel through Isaac Ishaq who is the brother of Ishmael Ismail and the father of Jacob Yaqub Israel. Esau and Ishmael Ismail are not one of the children of Israel. The children of Ishmael Ismail are the brethren and brother of the children of Isaac Ishaq which include the children of Israel in the same way as God says the children of Esau who are not the children of Israel are the brethren of the children of Israel in Torah Deuteronomy 2:4 – 2:8 and Prophet Moses Musa says the children of Esau who are not the children of Israel are the brother of the children of Israel in Torah Numbers 20:14. Those who descended from Prophet Abraham Ibrahim are brothers and brethren to each other and brothers and brethren in the religion of God because this is the religion of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim) and I (God through the Holy Spirit Angel Gabriel Jibril) shall put my (God’s) words in the mouth of the prophet (meaning prophet after prophet, messenger after messenger), who shall speak to them (the people) everything that I (God) command him” (to speak to you. Note that all the prophets and messengers of God are mentioned in Torah Deuteronomy 18:18. In Torah Genesis 25:9 “Isaac Ishaq and Ishmael Ismail his sons buried Abraham Ibrahim” meaning the children of Isaac Ishaq and the children of Ishmael Ismail are brothers and brethren to each other meaning the Hebrews and the Arabs are brothers and brethren to each other meaning the Jews and the Muslims are brothers and brethren to each other meaning everyone who follows the religion of God are brothers and brethren to each other as confirmed in Torah Deuteronomy 18:15, 18:18 - 18:22 and Quran 5:68 and Quran 7:157); 

Gospel of John 10:31 (However instead of waiting for Jesus to finish talking or waiting for people to ask more questions about what Jesus had said some people saw an opportunity to kill Jesus and) again, the Jews lifted up stones in order to stone him (Jesus who was their Jewish brother).

Gospel of John 10:33 The Jews answered him (Jesus who was their brother in Judaism), "Not for good works are we stoning you, but for blasphemy (wickedness), because you (Jesus), being a human, are making yourself God (who is the creator of every creation and you Jesus are a creation)."

Gospel of John 10:34 Jesus answered them, "Is it not written in your law, 'I (God) have said, "You are gods (godlike, meaning that humans are created with a portion of kindness and mercy because God is the most kind and the most merciful)"'?

(Note 1. Humans do not resemble God in any way because nothing that is like a human can create the Universe.

(Note 2. “Godlike” or “created in the image of God” means that humans have been give a portion of kindness and mercy because God is the most kind and the most merciful.

Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 82:6 I (God) said: You are godlike beings (meaning every human is created by God with a capability to be kind and merciful), and all of you (are) sons (meaning servants) of the Most High (God).

(Note 1. God is the most kind and the most merciful.

(Note 2. Humans are not God because every human experiences death.

Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalms 82:7 Nevertheless you (humans) shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.'

(Note 3.  Nothing that is created is God because no creation has the ability to create the Universe.

(Note 4.  Humans are only said to be “godlike” or “created in the image of God” in that humans are created by God with an ability to be kind and merciful in their behaviour and in their judgements when they follow the example of God who is the most kind and the most merciful.

Gospel of John 10:35 Why, since he (God) called those to whom the word of God came (the children of Israel) 'gods' (meaning “godlike” or “created in the image of God” meaning that humans are created by God with an ability to be kind and merciful in their behaviour and in their judgements when they follow the example of God who is the most kind and the most merciful), and the scripture (of God) cannot be voided (cancelled),

Gospel of John 10:36 do you say to the one (Jesus) the Father (God) has consecrated (blessed, with the Holy Spirit of God angel Gabriel) and sent into the world (as the prophet and messenger and messiah of God), 'You (Jesus) are blaspheming (wicked),' because he (Jesus) said, 'I (Jesus) am the Son (meaning the servant, the slave) of God'?

(Note 1. Jesus did not say Jesus is God.

(Note 2. Jesus said Jesus is the servant of God.

(Note 3. A prophet of God is the servant of God.

(Note 4. A messenger of God is the servant of God.

(Note 5. A messiah of God is the servant of God.

Gospel of John 10:37 If I (Jesus) am not doing the (righteous) works of my Father (God), do not believe me (Jesus).

Gospel of John 10:38 And if I (Jesus the messenger of God) am doing them (the righteous works of God), even if you do not believe me (Jesus), believe the (righteous) works, so that you may acknowledge and know that the Father (God) is in me (Jesus, through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel who reveals the word of God to the heart of Jesus), and I (Jesus) in the Father (God, because every truthful messenger speaks in the name of God exactly what God has decreed them to speak)."

(Note 1. Torah Deuteronomy 18:18 (Therefore) I (God) shall raise up for them a prophet (Prophet Joshua Yusha followed by prophet after prophet, messenger after messenger) like you (Prophet Moses) from among their own brothers (Isaac and Ishmael are brothers and descendants and brethren to the children of Israel and the Arabian people through Prophet Abraham who was the father of Isaac and Ishmael) and I (God through the Holy Spirit Angel Gabriel) shall put my (God’s) words in the mouth of the prophet, who shall speak to them (the people) everything that I (God) command.”

3-5. Jesus denied Jesus is God. 

Gospel of John 8:58 (As evidence on the Day of Judgement to show to the people who sinned in the second temple of God in Jerusalem, Al-Quds) Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly I (Jesus) say to you, before Abraham was (created), I (Jesus the messenger of God) am (already decreed, but not yet created because everything that was and everything that is and everything that will be had all been decreed by God before anything had been created including Abraham and Jesus)."

(Note 1. Jesus is not an eternal partner who is equal to God because Jesus is a human servant and a human messenger of God).

(Note 2. Those in the Temple of God who were wicked were made to believe that Jesus was arrogantly claiming to be God but on the Day of Judgement those who were wicked shall be unable to show any arrogant deeds which Jesus did and that shall be proof that those who accused Jesus of the great sin of arrogantly claiming to be God were themselves arrogant because Jesus never said Jesus is God.

The proof is that Jesus prayed to God with them in the Temple and told them to pray only to God as every prophet and messenger of God had done before Jesus.

(Note 3. Those who were righteous and who had correctly understood the meaning of the Gospel of John 1:1 – 1:4 knew that Jesus had said that God created every creation including Jesus.

There is no creation that has not been created by God.

(Note 4. Jesus is not God because Jesus is a creation whereas God is the creator of every creation.

(Note 5. The belief that the creator is a creation is called the religion of human idol worship.

(Note 6. Jesus rejected the idea that Jesus is God because that is the religion of human idol worship.

Gospel of Matthew 23:9 (Jesus said) and call no one on earth (including Jesus) your father (God), because there is only one father (God) for you, the heavenly one …”

(Note 7. Jesus said that God is not only his Father but God is the Father of every human.

(Note 8. No one on the Earth is God because everything on the Earth is created by God.

God is not in one place however to make clear that Jesus is not God the expression “God in heaven” is used to show that Jesus who is on the Earth is not God.

(Note 9. The belief that a created human can be God is called human idol worship and is forbidden by God in the Torah Ten Commandments.

Torah Deuteronomy 5:7 (In the Ten Commandments of God the First commandment from God is) You shall have no other gods but Me (God, The one God, the one creator of every creation).

Torah Deuteronomy 5:8 (In the Ten Commandments of God the Second commandment from God is) You shall not make any graven (man-made image, image carved on any surface such as on wood and stone and metal and glass, engraved images such as those made by scratching or cutting to make an) image (for worship or in a place of worship), even any image that looks like anything that is above you in heaven or that is on the Earth, or that is in the water or under the Earth.

(Note 1. Jesus is not an eternal partner who is equal to God because Jesus is a human servant and a human messenger of God).

(Note 2. The belief that a created human can be God is called human idol worship and is forbidden by God in the Torah Ten Commandments.

Torah Deuteronomy 5:9 (In the Ten Commandments of God the Second commandment from God continues) You shall not bow down to them (any human made image) nor serve them (meaning do not direct prayer to such an image, do not direct worship to such an image) because I the Lord your God am a jealous God (meaning pray to one God only) and I (God) give punishment to the father (who disobeys this command) and also to his children (who disobeys this command) and also to the third generation and to the fourth generation of them (the children of Israel) that hate me (by disobeying this command). (Continued in Torah Deuteronomy 5:10)

(Note 1. Why is God a jealous God?

God reveals there is one God therefore believing that Jesus is God disobeys what God has revealed which cannot be altered by humans inventing Trinity as a way to believe that a human is God.

God is jealous when people thank humans by idol worshipping such creations instead of thanking God who is the creator of every human and every creation.

Torah Deuteronomy 5:10 (In the Ten Commandments of God the Second commandment from God continues) - And showing mercy to the thousandth generation of them that love Me (God) and keep My (God’s) commandments.

(Note 1. The Second commandment of God continues stating that those that love God shall keep this commandment.

(Note 2. If humans lived for 100 years then the thousandth generation of humans would be in 100,000 years.

(Note 3. God made clear that no one can cancel the central commandment in the Torah which are the first two commandments given by God to Prophet Moses and followed by Prophet Jesus and Prophet Muhammad.

Torah Numbers 23:19 (God said, through the month of Balaam) “God is not a man, that He should lie, neither (is He) the son of a man, that He (God) should repent (for your sins). When He has said (something) shall He not do it? Or when He has spoken, shall He not make it good. ..."

(Note 1. God is not a human.

(Note 2. God is not a creation because God is the creator of every creation.

Gospel of John 8:59 (However instead of waiting for Jesus to finish talking or waiting for people to ask more questions about what Jesus had said some people saw an opportunity to kill Jesus and) then they picked up stones to throw at him (Jesus). But Jesus hid himself, and went forth from the temple (the second House of God on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine).

Gospel of John 19:8 When therefore Pilate heard this information, he was more afraid,

Comment:

Explain Gospel of John 19:8.

Gospel of John 19:8 When therefore Pilate heard this information, he was more afraid (because even though Pilate believed that Jesus was innocent of the many false charges here was another charge which seemed false from a crowd that seemed to be as angry and determined as ever to see Jesus crucified to death)

Gospel of John 19:9 and he entered the Praetorium again, and says to Jesus, "Where are you from?" But Jesus did not give him an answer.

Comment:

What is Praetorium?

Praetorium is the official residence of a Roman Governor or the tent of a Roman General.

Gospel of John 19:10 Pilate then says to him, "To me you are not speaking? Do you not know, that I have authority to free you, and I have authority to crucify you?"

Gospel of John 19:11 Jesus answered, "You would have no authority over me if it had not been given you from above. Because of this, the one who handed me over to you has the greater guilt."

Comment:

1. Explain Gospel of John 19:11.

Gospel of John 19:11 Jesus answered, "You (Governor Pilate) would have no authority over me (Jesus) if it (the authority over Jesus) had not been given you from (God) above (in Heaven). Because of this, the one who handed me (Jesus) over to you (Governor Pilate by making false accusations against Jesus) has the greater guilt."

2. Why is Jesus not God?

2-1. Jesus is not God because God gave Governor Pilate authority over Jesus. 

Gospel of John 19:11 Jesus answered, "You (Governor Pilate) would have no authority over me (Jesus) if it (the authority over Jesus) had not been given you from (God) above (in Heaven) …”

(Note 1. It is God who is the giver of authority not Jesus.

(Note 2. Everything is decreed by God not by Jesus.

Gospel of Matthew 23:9 (Jesus said) and call no one on earth (including Jesus) your father (God), because there is only one father (God) for you, the heavenly one …”

(Note 1. Jesus said that God is not only his Father but God is the Father of every human.

(Note 2. No one on the Earth is God because everything on the Earth is created by God.

God is not in one place however to make clear that Jesus is not God the expression “God in heaven” is used to show that Jesus who is on the Earth is not God).

2-2. How can Jesus know the future? 

Torah Deuteronomy 18:18 (Therefore) I (God) shall raise up for them a prophet (Prophet Joshua Yusha followed by prophet after prophet, messenger after messenger) like you (Prophet Moses) from among their own brothers (Isaac and Ishmael are brothers and descendants and brethren to the children of Israel and the Arabian people through Prophet Abraham who was the father of Isaac and Ishmael) and I (God through the Holy Spirit Angel Gabriel) shall put my (God’s) words in the mouth of the prophet, who shall speak to them (the people) everything that I (God) command.”

(Note 1. Everything that Jesus knows has been revealed to Jesus by God through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel.

2-3. Jesus shows Governor Pilate that Jesus has committed no crime. 

Gospel of John 19:11 Jesus answered, …. “the one who handed me (Jesus) over to you (Governor Pilate by making false accusations against Jesus) has the greater guilt."

(Note 1. The Jewish religious leaders who made false accusations against Jesus who is a Jew, a prophet and a messenger of God, those religious leaders have the greater guilt.

Gospel of John 10:18 No one takes it (my life) from me (Jesus); I lay it down (my life) of myself (voluntarily as God has ordered Jesus to do). I (Jesus) have authority (from God) to lay it down (on the cross where humans shall try to kill Jesus through crucifixion) and I (Jesus) have authority (by the order of God) to take it (my life) up again (as proof that no one killed Jesus); this order I have received from my Father (God).

(Note 1. In the Gospel Jesus said no one takes my life from me because Jesus is obeying the orders of God.

(Note 2. The Gospel confirms no one killed Jesus because Jesus was alive three days later.

(Note 3. No one killed Jesus but the fact that on the Day of Judgement some people will not be able to deny that they were joyful when they though that Jesus was dead on the cross will be evidence of their sin when they though they had killed Jesus.

Gospel of Mark 14:62 (Jesus foretold what will happen in future after Jesus has left the Earth). And Jesus said, "I am (the prophet and the messenger who is the messiah), and (on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement) you will all see the Son of Man (the human Jesus) sitting at the right hand of Power (the right hand of God means sitting with the righteous), and coming with the clouds of heaven."

Quran 39:69 Koran 39:69 And the earth (meaning, the land in the hereafter) shall shine with the light of its Lord (God, when God shall come to judge men and women on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement) and the Book (of their good and bad deeds) shall be shown. (In the judgement of each person) the Prophets (the messenger of God in the time of that person or the messenger of God that the person claimed to follow) and the witnesses (the Holy angels including the Holy Spirit and humans) shall be brought and it (the good and bad deeds of men and women) shall be judged between them (the Prophets and the witnesses and the Book of their good and bad deeds) with (the) truth (as God decreed) and they (those who are judged) shall not be wronged (by any incorrect judgement of what they did during their lifetime on the Earth).

(Note 1. The prophet who is the messenger of God that each person claimed to follow or who lived during their time will be present at their judgement on the Day of Judgement.

Gospel of John 19:12 From this point on Pilate tried to free him; but the Jews shouted out, saying, "If you release this man, you are no friend of Caesar! Everyone calling himself a king is opposing Caesar."

Comment:

Explain Gospel of John 19:12.

Gospel of John 19:12 From this point on Pilate tried to free him; but (under the instructions of the leaders among the Jews) the Jews shouted out, saying, "If you release this man, you are no friend of Caesar (meaning the King of the Roman Empire)! Everyone calling himself a king is opposing Caesar (meaning the King of the Roman Empire)."

In the religion of idol worship god is the Emperor of the Roman Empire and that empower appointed Pilate to the position of Governor of Judea so a person claiming to be a King was a rival to the Emperor of the Roman Empire,

The people threatened Governor Pilate by saying:

Gospel of John 19:12 “… If you release this man, you are no friend of Caesar (meaning the King of the Roman Empire)! Everyone calling himself a king is opposing Caesar (meaning the King of the Roman Empire)."

Gospel of John 19:13 When therefore Pilate heard these words, he brought Jesus outside, and he sat down on the judgement seat, at a place called The Pavement, but in Hebrew called Gabbatha.

Comment:

What is Gabbatha?

Gabbatha is the name of the place in Jerusalem Al-Quds where Governor Pilate delivered his judgements.

Gabbatha is the name of the place in Jerusalem Al-Quds where Governor Pilate delivered his judgement to crucify Jesus to death on the cross.

Gabbatha is not a Hebrew word but is from the Aramaic language which was commonly used by the children of Israel 2000 years ago in Judea today in Israel and Palestine.

Gospel of John 19:14 And it was Preparation for the Passover, about 6:00 am. And he says to the Jews, "Behold, your king."

Comment:

What is Passover?

Passover is the remembrance of God when 3200 years ago God through Prophet Moses rescued the children of Israel from the slavery of the Pharaoh in Egypt and gave freedom to the children of Israel.

Passover is a Jewish festival celebrated by Jesus and the 12 disciples of Jesus because they were from the children of Israel and they were Jewish.

Gospel of John 19:15 They then shouted out, "Away with him! Away with him! Crucify him!" Pilate says to them, "Shall I crucify your king?" The chief priests responded, "We have no king but Caesar."

Comment:

Who is Caesar?

Caesar means the King of the Roman Empire.

Gospel of John 19:16 At that time therefore he handed him over to them, to be crucified. They took Jesus therefore.

Comment:

Explain Gospel of John 19:16.

Gospel of John 19:16 At that time therefore he (Governor Pilate) handed him (Jesus) over to them (the Roman soldiers), to be crucified (to death on the cross). They (the Roman soldiers) took Jesus therefore.

The crucifixion.

What is crucifixion? 

Crucifixion is the killing of a person by nailing or binding them to a cross.

Gospel of John 19:17 And carrying the cross by himself, he proceeded forth, to what is called the Skull Place, which in Hebrew is pronounced Gulgolta,

Comment:

1. Explain Gospel of John 19:17.

Gospel of John 19:17 And carrying the (wooden) cross (on which he was to be crucified to death) by himself, he (Jesus) proceeded forth, to what is called the Skull Place, which in Hebrew is pronounced Gulgolta,

2. What is Gulgolta?

Gulgolta meaning Skull Place is the place where Jesus was taken to be crucified to death on the cross.

Gulgolta is not a Hebrew word but is from the Aramaic language which was commonly used by the children of Israel 2000 years ago in Judea today in Israel and Palestine.

Gospel of John 19:18 where they crucified him, and with him, two others, one on this side and one on the other, and Jesus in the middle.

Gospel of John 19:19 And Pilate also wrote a notice and put it on the cross, and it was inscribed: "JESUS THE NAZARENE, THE KING OF THE JEWS."

Comment:

What was the official reason that Jesus was to be killed by the Roman Empire?

What does "Jesus the Nazarene, The King of the Jews" mean?

The official charge against Jesus was that Jesus whom it was claimed had made himself the King of the Jews had challenged the Roman Empire because only the leader of the Roman Empire was allowed to decide who was a King.

The Roman Empire made Jesus an example of what happens to people who oppose the authority of the Roman Empire’s rule of Judea today in Israel and Palestine.

Gospel of John 19:20 Many of the Jews therefore read this notice, because the place where Jesus was crucified was close to the city, and it was written in Hebrew, in Latin, and in Greek.

Comment:

Explain Gospel of John 19:20.

Gospel of John 19:20 Many of the Jews therefore read this notice, because the place where Jesus was crucified was close to the city (of Jerusalem Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine), and it was written in Hebrew, in Latin, and in Greek.

Gospel of John 19:21 The chief priests of the Jews therefore were saying to Pilate, "Do not write 'The King of the Jews,' but rather: 'He SAID, I am King of the Jews.'"

Comment:

What is the difference between “The King of the Jews” and “He (Jesus) said, I am King of the Jews?”

To describe Jesus who is Jewish as “The King of the Jews” is a statement with which the Jewish religious authorities disagreed because it implied that Jesus was the King of the Jews.

To describe Jesus who is Jewish as “He (Jesus) said, I am the King of the Jews” is a statement with which the Jewish religious authorities agreed because it implied that Jesus was not a King but Jesus thought that Jesus was the King of the Jews.

Gospel of John 19:22 Pilate answered, "What I have written I have written."

Gospel of John 19:23 The soldiers then, when they crucified Jesus, took his garments and made four shares, a share for each soldier, plus the tunic. For the tunic was seamless, woven continuously from the top through the whole.

Gospel of John 19:24 They said therefore to one another, "We should not tear it, but cast lots as to whose it shall be." So that the scripture would be fulfilled, "They divided my garments among them; and cast lots over my clothing," those things therefore the soldiers did.

Gospel of John 19:25 And near the cross of Jesus stood his mother, and his mother's sister; and the Mary belonging to Clopas, and the Magdalene Mary.

Gospel of John 19:26 Jesus therefore, seeing his mother (Mary) and the disciple (John) whom he loved standing near, says to his mother (Mary), "Dear woman (Mary), behold (look at) your son (not Jesus who is her real son but her new son John who will look after Mary when Jesus has left the Earth)."

Gospel of John 19:27 Then he says to the disciple, "Behold, your mother." And from that time on, that disciple took her into his own home.

Comment:

Explain Gospel of John 19:27.

Gospel of John 19:27 Then he (Jesus) says to the disciple (John), "Behold (look at), your mother (Mary who is not the real mother of Mary but when Jesus leaves the Earth John will care for Mary as if Mary is his mother)." And from that time on, that disciple (John) took her (Mary) into his own home (John’s home).

Jesus' death.

Comment:

1. The Death of Jesus or the three day sleep of Jesus?

The three day sleep of Jesus and the natural death of Jesus.

1-1. What is death?

God has decreed that every human must die.

Death is the sign of a human.

Death is the sign of every creation.

1-2. No one is like God.

There is only one God because God is unique.

God is one of a kind meaning there is nothing that is like God.

God never dies.

God is never killed.

Only creations experience death.

1-3. What is the religion of idol worship?

Everything on the Earth is a creation.

Jesus is a creation.

The Holy Ghost is a creation.

Every human is a creation.

To say that a creation is God is the religion of idol worship.

To say that a human is God is the religion of idol worship.

Praying to dead humans is the religion of idol worship.

Praying to living humans is the religion of idol worship.

1-4. No one on the Earth is God.

Gospel of Matthew 23:9 And call no one on earth your father (God), because there is only one father (God) for you, the heavenly one (the living invisible God who is the creator of every creation who has existed forever because God was never born and it is God who will exist forever because God will never die). 

(Note 1. There is only one God because only God was never born and only God will never die.

(Note 2. Everything except God is a creation that was created by God.

(Note 3. Jesus said do not call Jesus God because everything on the Earth is created by God.

(Note 4. Jesus said do not call Jesus God because God created Jesus.

(Note 5. Jesus said do not call Jesus God because Jesus was born but God was never born.

(Note 6. Jesus said do not call Jesus God because humans must die but God never dies.

Quran 4:158 Koran 4:158 God raised him (the soul of Prophet Jesus Isa) up to Himself (God, to protect the life of Jesus Isa as explained in Quran 39:42 where God raises the soul up to Himself causing the human body on the earth to sleep and make everyone think Jesus Isa was dead because his body was not moving in Quran 4:157. God returned the soul of Jesus Isa causing his human body on the earth to wake up three days later as proof that no one killed Jesus Isa on the cross and no one crucified him to death on the cross. This is confirmed because Jesus Isa is seen alive three days after the crucifixion delivering the message that he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord). God is all powerful (able to do all things) and He (God) is all wise. (2000 years ago God saved the life of humans with sleep so that their body did not move making everyone think they were dead in the Injil Gospel of Mark 5:39 "... The child is not dead but sleeping", Gospel of Matthew 9:24 "... For the maiden meaning the girl has not died but sleeps ..." and the Gospel of Luke 8:52 "... She is not dead but sleeping". To prepare to test the faith of Prophet Jesus Isa by the threat of death by crucifixion God through the Holy Spirit removed from the mind of Prophet Jesus Isa the earlier events where God had saved people with sleep that looked like death by revealing the story of Lazarus in the Injil Gospel of John 11:11 – 11:14 where the Holy Spirit reveals to Jesus that sleep for Lazarus means Lazarus is dead. This was done so that Prophet Jesus Isa will believe he will die in the same way as Prophet Abraham Ibrahim believed his son would die. Prophet Jesus Isa passed the test of faith in God and God saved Prophet Jesus Isa like God saved the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim so that Prophet Jesus Isa could continue his life on the earth when God returned the soul from heaven to wake up the sleeping body on the earth as God had done before in the Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 “…"Damsel meaning girl, wake up!" And her spirit returned, and she stood up at once, and he ordered that she be given something to eat. This was proof that she was alive and not dead. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa was alive on the earth as proof that no one killed him on the cross or crucified him to death. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa taught the people that he is not God until his natural death 2000 years ago in Quran 5:75, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:117 and in all the four Gospels Injil. It is in the life of Prophet Jesus Isa after the crucifixion that Jesus told the people that he is not God so that no one will be able to claim in the hereafter that Prophet Jesus Isa did not tell them he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36).

Note 1. God saved Jesus Isa from death on the cross in Quran 4:157 and 4:158 so that Jesus Isa could continue his life and then die 2000 years ago like every human before him and after him has died in Quran 5:75 and 3:144. The natural death of Jesus Isa 2000 years ago is proof to the people in his time that Jesus Isa is human like every other human and he is not God or an equal partner with God.   

In Quran 5:75 every human messenger of God before Prophet Jesus Isa is dead.

Quran 5:75 Koran 5:75 The Messiah (Jesus Isa), son of Mary (Maryam), was no more than a (human) messenger (of God) and (all the human) messengers (of God) before him (Prophet Jesus Isa) have passed away (meaning died) … they (Jesus Isa and Mary Maryam) both used to eat food (meaning Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa died a natural death 2000 years ago because both “used to eat food” meaning they are dead because they do not eat food today  ..." 

Note 1. In Quran 5:75 "they used to eat food" means Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa are dead. 

In Quran 3:144 every human messenger of God before Prophet Muhammad is dead.

The messenger before Prophet Muhammad is Prophet Jesus Isa meaning Prophet Jesus Isa is dead.

Quran 3:144 Koran 3:144 Prophet Muhammad is no more than a (human) messenger (of God) and (all the human) messengers (of God) before him (Prophet Muhammad) have passed away (meaning died) ….”

Note 1. The messenger before Prophet Muhammad is Prophet Jesus Isa meaning Prophet Jesus Isa is dead..

Note 2. At the end of the life of every human God raises their soul to heaven and to God.

2. What is the difference between death and sleep?

2-1. How could Jesus be not dead but sleeping on the cross?

How could Jesus be alive on the cross as revealed by the prophet after Jesus?

The prophet after Jesus would reveal that Jesus was not dead on the cross.

The body of Jesus was sleeping but the soul of Jesus was with God.

How is it possible for a body to be sleeping and the soul to be with God?

Only the soul of a human is raised to heaven.

The human body is not needed in heaven.

The human body is only needed on the Earth.

Three days after the crucifixion Jesus told Mary Magdalene to tell all the disciples that Jesus did not die on the cross in Gospel of John 20:17 “I have not yet ascended to the Father” meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with a miracle which made people think Jesus was dead on the cross in the same way God made people believe a sleeping person was dead in Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24 and Gospel of Luke 8:52.

The soul of every human ascends to God during sleep and when they die (Quran 39:42).

When Jesus says “I (Jesus) have not yet ascended to the Father (God)” Jesus is not talking about sleep because every human ascends to God every night during sleep therefore the meaning is Jesus has not yet died meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with sleep (Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24, Gospel of Luke 8:52, Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42) meaning Jesus did not die on the cross with death but was saved on the cross with sleep which looked like Jesus was dead and in this way God saved the life of Jesus meaning no one killed Jesus (Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 and Quran 39:42) meaning no one crucified Jesus to death (Quran 4:157) meaning Jesus was not sacrificed but was saved from death with sleep in Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42 for the same reason God saved the son of Abraham from death in a test of the faith in God of Abraham and Jesus.

When Jesus says "I (Jesus) am ascending to my Father (God) and your Father (God)" it means Jesus will die like every human dies meaning Jesus died a natural death at the end of his life 2000 years ago (Quran 3:144 and Quran 5:75) as proof Jesus is human and as proof Jesus is not God.

Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus says to her (Mary Magdalene), "Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father (God); but go to my brothers (my disciples), and tell them: 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father; to my God and your God.'"

Note 1. After the crucifixion Jesus says do not hold on to me to see if I am really alive, I have not yet ascended to my Father meaning I am not yet dead meaning I am really alive meaning I am not a ghost.

Quran 39:42 Koran 39:42 God takes the souls at the time of their death and (also takes the souls of) those who have not died (but are alive) during their sleep (when God saved the life of Jesus Isa with sleep so that his body did not move making everyone believe that Jesus Isa was dead on the cross in Quran 4:157 by raising the soul of Jesus Isa to heaven and to God in Quran 4:158). He (God) keeps those (souls) for which He (God) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls to awaken the sleeping body) for a predetermined period of time (such as when God returned the soul of Jesus Isa three days after the crucifixion to wake up the sleeping body of Jesus Isa on the earth in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 when Jesus Isa delivered the message that Jesus Isa is not God by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross, after which they return to sleep again or die as in Quran 5:75 where Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa “use to eat food” meaning they both died 2000 years ago and Quran 3:144 where the “the messengers before Prophet Muhammad have died” meaning Jesus Isa is dead because Jesus Isa is the messenger before Prophet Muhammad. In Quran 5:117 Jesus died when he lived with the children of Israel 2000 years ago when he was raised by the angel of death). In this are signs (of God) for people who think.

(Note 1. The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross.

(Note 2. When a human sleeps their soul is raised to heaven and to God.

(Note 3. When God returns the soul to a sleeping human their body will wake up.

(Note 4. Three days later Jesus was awake.

(Note 5. God saved Jesus from death.

The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross and the soul of Jesus was taken to heaven and to God then the soul of Jesus was returned three days later to Earth to awaken the sleeping body of Jesus.

(Note 6. Just as God twice protected Jesus from being stoned to death in the Gospel of John 8:59 and 10:31 so also God protected Jesus from being killed or crucified to death.

(Note 7. Prophet Muhammad confirms he is the prophet and messenger after Jesus by confirming that the Gospel correctly describes what the people saw which appeared to be the killing of Jesus and revealing in the Quran how God saved Jesus.

(Note 1. What is sleep?

When a human body sleeps the soul is raised to heaven and to God and that soul will return to awaken the sleeping body on the Earth.

The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross and the soul of Jesus was raised to heaven and to God.

God returned the soul to the sleeping body of Jesus 3 days later and the body of Jesus woke up and Jesus was seen alive.

(Note 2. What is death?

When a human body dies the soul is raised to heaven and to God and that soul will not return to the Earth.

After death the soul will be given a new physical body that can feel reward or punishment on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement.

When Jesus died a natural death God raised the soul of Jesus to heaven and to God and this death is confirmed by Jesus who said do not believe anyone who says that Jesus will return to this Earth (in Gospel of Mark 13;5, 13:6, 13:21, 13:22, 13:23) because the second coming of Jesus will be on the Day of Resurrection which is the second coming of every human including Jesus (in Gospel of Mark 13:27 and 14:62) 

See Gospel of Mark 13;5, 13:6, 13:21, 13:22, 13:23, 13:26, 13:27 and 14:62 comment.

See Gospel of Matthew 24:29 and 24:30 comment.

See Gospel of Luke 21:25, 21:25 and 21:7 comment.

See Jesus said another comforter from God will come after him. See part B at the end of Gospel of John chapter 21. 

(Note 3. How do we know that Prophet Muhammad is not one of the false prophets that Jesus warned would falsely claim that Jesus will return to this Earth?

Answer 1: There is nothing in the Torah or Gospel or Quran about Jesus returning to this Earth.

Answer 2: Prophet Muhammad is not one of the false prophets who will falsely claim that Jesus will return to this Earth because there is nothing in the Quran about Jesus returning to this Earth.

Gospel of John 19:28 Jesus, knowing that after these things, all things were now completed, next says, "I am thirsty," so that the scripture would be fulfilled.

Comment:

1. Explain Gospel of John 19:28.

Gospel of John 19:28 Jesus, knowing that after these things, all things (that God through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel had commanded Jesus to do) were now completed, next says, "I (Jesus) am thirsty," so that the scripture would be fulfilled.

Gospel of John 3:35 The Father (God) loves the Son (the willing servant who 2000 years ago was the prophet messenger and messiah Jesus), and has given all things into his hand (because every prophet and messenger of God is given all things since everything a prophet and messenger of God does is what God has willed them to do).

(Note 1. Why did God gave Jesus all things on the Earth?

2000 years ago Jesus had the supreme authority to speak in the name of God and as proof that Jesus was a messenger of God; God permitted Jesus to show all types of miracles as proof that Jesus was a truthful prophet and messenger of God.

Torah Deuteronomy 18:18 (Therefore) I (God) shall raise up for them a prophet (Prophet Joshua Yusha followed by prophet after prophet, messenger after messenger) like you (Prophet Moses) from among their own brothers (Isaac and Ishmael are brothers and descendants and brethren to the children of Israel and the Arabian people through Prophet Abraham who was the father of Isaac and Ishmael) and I (God through the Holy Spirit Angel Gabriel) shall put my (God’s) words in the mouth of the prophet, who shall speak to them (the people) everything that I (God) command.”

Gospel of John 15:15 No longer do I (Jesus) call you (the disciples of Jesus) servants, for the servant does not know what his lord (Master) is doing. But you (the disciples of Jesus) I (Jesus) have called friends, because all things that I (Jesus) have heard from my Father (God), I (Jesus) have made known to you (the disciples of Jesus).

(Note 1. All things that Jesus does Jesus heard God tell Jesus to do. All revelation from God to Jesus is through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel.

2. Why did Jesus say, "I (Jesus) am thirsty?"

As proof that Jesus is a human and not God; Jesus said “I (Jesus) am thirsty.”

On the Day of Judgement those that claim that Jesus is God or a partner with God will not be able to deny that God clearly showed that Jesus is a human like every human prophet and human messenger which God had sent before Jesus.

Gospel of Luke 24:43 And he (Jesus) took it (the broiled fish), and ate it in front of them (to prove that Jesus is human. Jesus is not God because God does not eat food. Jesus is human because Jesus eats food).

(Note 1. The messengers of God such as Moses, Jesus and Muhammad are all humans.

Quran 5:75 Koran 5:75 The Messiah (Jesus Isa), son of Mary (Maryam), was no more than a (human) messenger (of God) and (all the human) messengers (of God) before him (Prophet Jesus Isa) have passed away (meaning died. All the messengers before Jesus Isa have died so would you expect that Prophet Muhammad would live forever or expect that Prophet Muhammad will not die or believe that Prophet Jesus Isa did not die or that Prophet Moses Musa did not die or that Prophet Abraham Ibrahim did not die? See Quran 3:144, 4:157, 4:158, 5:72, 5:75, 5:117, 19:36 and 39:42 comments). His mother was a righteous woman and they (Jesus Isa and Mary Maryam) both used to eat food (meaning Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa died a natural death 2000 years ago because both “used to eat food” meaning they are dead because they do not eat food today. The human body needs food. When Adam and Eve Hawa were created with a human body they ate food in heaven. If the human body of Jesus Isa was raised to heaven as some people claim then Jesus Isa would be eating food today which contradicts Quran 5:75 “Jesus and Mary both used to eat food” meaning Jesus and Mary both do not eat food today because they died a natural death like every human messenger of God before them has died in Quran 5:75 and as Prophet Jesus Isa died in Quran 3:144 which says the messengers of God before Prophet Muhammad have died meaning Jesus Isa died 2000 years ago because the messenger of God before Prophet Muhammad is Prophet Jesus Isa who lived and died a natural death 2000 years ago. God raises the soul to heaven not the human body. The soul is alive in heaven without a human body and without the need for food. The human body is only needed on this earth. The soul without the body for Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa are in heaven waiting for the Day of Resurrection which will come in the hereafter on a new earth after the end of this earth, the sun, the moon, the stars and the universe meaning the Day of Resurrection is after the end of this first creation. After the Day of Resurrection and Judgement the new physical human body will eat food in the hereafter only for enjoyment in Paradise Jannah and only for punishment in Hell Jahannam). (Even now when) We (God) make the revelations clear for them (that Jesus Isa is not God but a human by showing that the soul of Jesus Isa was raised up to God like every human soul is raised up to God by the angel of death) see how they (some among the Christians who believe Jesus Isa is God) are deluded (in thinking that Jesus Isa is more than a human messenger. Moses Musa describes all the messengers who will come after him including Jesus Isa in Taurat Torah Deuteronomy 18:15 – 18:22. Jesus Isa never said "I am God" or "worship me" or "I am a Trinity" in the Gospel of Jesus Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John and that is why such beliefs are called "deluded" meaning they are not true because they are opposite to what Jesus Isa is teaching in all the Gospels Injils that were with the Christians 1400 years ago and are still with them today and will be with them until the Day of Judgement as proof that Jesus Isa never claimed he was God and as proof Jesus Isa told people to pray not to him but to God and worship not him but worship God. What some people think Jesus Isa said is opposite to the meaning of the words of Jesus Isa which are recorded in all the Gospels Injils and this is why it is said that some Christians 1400 years ago had deluded ideas meaning untrue ideas that Jesus Isa was more than a human or that he was God or that he was a partner with God in a Trinity. Jesus Isa was a human who died like every human before him had died and whose soul was raised up to God to be in God's care like the soul of every human is raised up after death to be in God's care. The meaning of Quran 5:75 is that Jesus Isa died 2000 years ago like every human messenger of God had died before him as proof to the people in his time that Jesus is not God or a partner with God but only a human servant who delivered the message of God. The natural death of Prophet Jesus Isa 2000 years ago when Jesus Isa was raised up to God by the angel of death in Quran 3:144, Quran 5:75, Quran 5:117 and Quran 39:42 is confirmed in the Injils of Isa the Gospels of Jesus by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John which is with the Christians today as proof of the truthfulness of the Quran in the Gospel of Mark 16:19, the Gospel of Luke 24:51 and the last report of the life of Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew 28:20 and the Gospel of John 21:25 which all show that Jesus lived his life on this earth after the crucifixion teaching the people that he is not God saying "God is my Father and your Father" meaning God is my creator and your creator and teaching the people "God is my God and your God" meaning God is my master and your master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 until his natural death 2000 years ago in Judea today in Israel and Palestine).

Note 1. In Quran 5:75 "they used to eat food" means Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa are dead.

Note 2. After Prophet Muhammad revealed that Jesus was a human like every messenger before Jesus some Christians continued to believe that Jesus was god and they mistakenly prayed to what God had created.

Quran 25:20 Koran 25:20 We (God) never sent before you (Prophet Muhammad) any (human) messengers except those who ate food and walked in the markets. And We (God) have made some of you (people) as a test (trial) for others: Shall you bear (the test, the trial) patiently? Your Lord (God) sees all (things).

(Note 1. The messengers of God such as Moses, Jesus and Muhammad are all humans.

2-1. Why did Jesus say, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”

As proof that Jesus is a human and not God; Jesus said, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”

On the Day of Judgement those that claim that Jesus is God or a partner with God will not be able to deny that God clearly showed that Jesus is a human like every human prophet and human messenger which God had sent before Jesus because only the creations of God call out to God saying, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”

Gospel of Mark 15:34 And at 3:00 P.M. Jesus cried out in a loud voice, "Elohi, Elohi, lema shevaqtani?"— which when translated is, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me (Jesus, the one who is your servant)?"

Gospel of Matthew 27:46 And at about the ninth hour, Jesus cried out in a very loud voice, saying, "Eli, Eli, lema shebaqtani?" Which means, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me (Jesus, the one who is your servant, your prophet, your messenger)?"

(Note 1. Jesus is not God because Jesus said to God, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me (Jesus, the one who is your servant, your prophet, your messenger)?"

(Note 2. Jesus is seen three days later as proof that God did not forsake Jesus.

(Note 3. Jesus is seen three days later as proof that God does not forsake those that call out in prayer to God.

(Note 4. Who is God?

Jesus is not God because Jesus called out "My God, my God” in prayer to God.

(Note 5. What does “My God” mean?

My God means the God “in heaven” because no one on the Earth is God.

See Gospel of Matthew 23:9 (below).

Gospel of Matthew 23:9 (Jesus said) and call no one on earth (including Jesus) your father (God), because there is only one father (God) for you, the heavenly one …”

(Note 1. Was Jesus on the Earth? Answer Yes.

(Note 2. Did Jesus say “call no one on earth your father (God).” Answer Yes.

(Note 3. Jesus was on the Earth therefore Jesus says Jesus is not God.

(Note 4. Why did Jesus say that no one on the Earth (including Jesus) is God? Answer “because there is only one father (God) for you, the heavenly one …”

(Note 5. No one on the Earth is God because everything on the Earth (including Jesus) is created by God.

God is not in one place however to make clear that Jesus is not God the expression “God in heaven” is used to show that Jesus who is on the Earth is not God).

(Note 6. Jesus said “there is only one father (God) for you, the heavenly one.” Therefore Jesus who is on the Earth denies that Jesus is God.

(Note 7. Jesus has made clear from his mouth that Jesus is not God so who does Jesus say he is?

(Note 8. Who is God? Jesus is not God because “there is only one father (God) for you, the heavenly one.”

Quran 112:1 Koran 112:1 Say, “He (the Lord) God is One (God).”

Quran 112:2 Koran 112:2 “(On) God all (creations) depend.”

Quran 112:3 Koran 112:3 He (God) never gave birth nor was He (God) born.

Quran 112:4 Koran 112:4 And there is nothing that is comparable to Him (God).  

Gospel of John 19:29 A container full of vinegar was sitting there, so after sticking a sponge full of the vinegar around a hyssop stem, they held it out to his mouth.

Comment:

1. What is vinegar?

Vinegar is a sour tasting fermented liquid that was drunk by both the Roman soldiers and the Jews and it was offered to Jesus because Jesus had said , "I (Jesus) am thirsty.”

2. What is a hyssop stem?

What does hyssop mean?

Hyssop is a plant with a 3 to 4 metre stem.

Gospel of John 19:30 When therefore he had received the vinegar, Jesus said, "It is finished." And after he bowed his head, he gave up his spirit.

Comment:

1. Explain Gospel of John 19:30.

Gospel of John 19:30 When therefore he (Jesus) had received the vinegar, Jesus said, "It (my mission, task which God through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel commanded Jesus to do) is finished." And after he (Jesus) bowed his head, he (Jesus) gave up his spirit (soul to heaven and to God).

2. Why is Jesus not God?

Gospel of John 19:30 “… he (Jesus) gave up his spirit (soul to heaven and to God).

(Note 1. Jesus is not God because Jesus is a creation and the soul of Jesus is a creation and the body of Jesus is a creation.

(Note 2. There is no creation that God has not created therefore Jesus is a creation that God created.

(Note 3. God created Jesus therefore Jesus cannot be God.

3. What happened to Jesus?

Gospel of John 19:30 “… Jesus said, "It (my mission, task which God through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel commanded Jesus to do) is finished." And after he (Jesus) bowed his head, he (Jesus) gave up his spirit (soul to heaven and to God).

Quran 3:54 Koran 3:54 And they (who disbelieved Prophet Jesus) plotted (to kill Jesus) but God also (had his) plan. And God is the best of the planners (meaning the plans of humans cannot be successful against the plans of God).

Quran 40:51 Koran 40:51 We (God) shall help Our (God’s) messengers and those who believe (in God) during the life of the world and on the Day (of Judgement) when the witnesses shall stand (to give evidence regarding your good and bad deeds).

Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 And they (some of the Jews of Yathrib in Arabia later Medina Arabia today Madinah Saudi Arabia) said (showing their pride and their disbelief by threatening and mocking the messenger Prophet Muhammad and his followers by boasting), "We killed messiah Jesus Isa, the son of Mary Maryam, the messenger of God," but (in fact) they did not kill him (on the cross) nor crucify him (to death on the cross), but it was made to appear so to them (so they believed he was dead on the cross because his body was not moving but in fact he was still alive and sleeping on the cross as explained in Quran 4:158 and 39:42) and those (Jews of Yathrib Arabia) who differ in this (in what happened to Prophet Jesus Isa on the cross) are full of doubts with no (certain) knowledge so they (the Jews of Yathrib) follow only conjecture (assumptions, speculation, guess). It is certain that they (the Jews) did not kill him (because God protected Prophet Jesus Isa from the death of crucifixion in 607 BH 33 CE 33 AD on Friday 3 April 33 in Jerusalem Al-Quds Yerussalem Yerushalayim in Judea today in Israel and Palestine and this is confirmed in the Gospel Injil where Jesus Isa is seen alive three days after the crucifixion teaching that he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross. 2000 years ago God saved the life of humans with sleep so that their body did not move making everyone think they were dead in the Injil Gospel of Mark 5:39 "... The child is not dead but sleeping", Gospel of Matthew 9:24 "... For the maiden meaning the girl has not died but sleeps ..." and the Gospel of Luke 8:52 "... She is not dead but sleeping". To prepare to test the faith of Prophet Jesus Isa by the threat of death by crucifixion God through the Holy Spirit removed from the mind of Prophet Jesus Isa the earlier events where God had saved people with sleep that looked like death by revealing the story of Lazarus in the Injil Gospel of John 11:11 – 11:14 where the Holy Spirit reveals to Jesus that sleep for Lazarus means Lazarus is dead. This was done so that Prophet Jesus Isa will believe he will die in the same way as Prophet Abraham Ibrahim believed his son would die. Prophet Jesus Isa passed the test of faith in God and God saved Prophet Jesus Isa like God saved the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim so that Prophet Jesus Isa could continue his life on the earth when God returned the soul from heaven to wake up the sleeping body on the earth as God had done before in the Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 “…"Damsel meaning girl, wake up!" And her spirit returned, and she stood up at once, and he ordered that she be given something to eat. This was proof that she was alive and not dead. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa was alive on the earth as proof that no one killed him on the cross or crucified him to death. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa taught the people that he is not God until his natural death 2000 years ago in Quran 5:75, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:117 and in all the four Gospels Injil. It is in the life of Prophet Jesus Isa after the crucifixion that Jesus told the people that he is not God so that no one will be able to claim in the hereafter that Prophet Jesus Isa did not tell them he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36).

Note 0. God saved Jesus Isa from death on the cross in Quran 4:157 and 4:158 so that Jesus Isa could continue his life and then die 2000 years ago like every human before him and after him has died in Quran 5:75 and 3:144. The natural death of Jesus Isa 2000 years ago is proof to the people in his time that Jesus Isa is human like every other human and he is not God or an equal partner with God.   

(Note 1. Just as 2000 years ago some Roman soldiers in Jerusalem Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine mocked Jesus to show their disbelief in Jesus in the same way some of the Jews of Yathrib Arabia today in Saudi Arabia mocked Jesus 1400 years ago to show their disbelief in both Jesus and Muhammad.

See Gospel of John 19:3.

(Note 2. God protected the life of Jesus from the death of crucifixion by giving sleep to the body of Jesus and raising the soul of Jesus to heaven and to God just as every human soul is raised to heaven and to God during sleep.

(Note 3. God saved Jesus by making the body of Jesus fall into sleep on the cross so although it appeared that Jesus had died on the cross from the death of crucifixion as is correctly described in the Gospel by those who saw it infact God saved Jesus from the death of crucifixion by God giving sleep to the body of Jesus as is revealed by the prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26 – 15:27, 16:7 – 16:15 see in Reference 1 at the end of the Gospel of John.

(Note 4. Prophet Muhammad confirms he is the prophet and messenger after Jesus by confirming that the Gospel correctly describes what the people saw which appeared to be the killing of Jesus and revealing in the Quran how God saved Jesus.

(Note 5. Three days after the crucifixion Jesus said he did not die.

Three days after the crucifixion Jesus told Mary Magdalene to tell all the disciples that Jesus did not die on the cross in Gospel of John 20:17 “I have not yet ascended to the Father” meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with a miracle which made people think Jesus was dead on the cross in the same way God made people believe a sleeping person was dead in Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24 and Gospel of Luke 8:52.

The soul of every human ascends to God during sleep and when they die (Quran 39:42).

When Jesus says “I (Jesus) have not yet ascended to the Father (God)” Jesus is not talking about sleep because every human ascends to God every night during sleep therefore the meaning is Jesus has not yet died meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with sleep (Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24, Gospel of Luke 8:52, Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42) meaning Jesus did not die on the cross with death but was saved on the cross with sleep which looked like Jesus was dead and in this way God saved the life of Jesus meaning no one killed Jesus (Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 and Quran 39:42) meaning no one crucified Jesus to death (Quran 4:157) meaning Jesus was not sacrificed but was saved from death with sleep in Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42 for the same reason God saved the son of Abraham from death in a test of the faith in God of Abraham and Jesus.

When Jesus says "I (Jesus) am ascending to my Father (God) and your Father (God)" it means Jesus will die like every human dies meaning Jesus died a natural death at the end of his life 2000 years ago (Quran 3:144 and Quran 5:75) as proof Jesus is human and as proof Jesus is not God.

Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus says to her (Mary Magdalene), "Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father (God); but go to my brothers (my disciples), and tell them: 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father; to my God and your God.'"

Note. After the crucifixion Jesus says do not hold on to me to see if I am really alive, I have not yet ascended to my Father meaning I am not yet dead meaning I am really alive meaning I am not a ghost.

(Note 6. The prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus confirmed and explained Gospel of John 20:17 where Jesus said he did not die on the cross.

Quran 39:42 Koran 39:42 God takes the souls at the time of their death and (also takes the souls of) those who have not died (but are alive) during their sleep (when God saved the life of Jesus Isa with sleep so that his body did not move making everyone believe that Jesus Isa was dead on the cross in Quran 4:157 by raising the soul of Jesus Isa to heaven and to God in Quran 4:158). He (God) keeps those (souls) for which He (God) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls to awaken the sleeping body) for a predetermined period of time (such as when God returned the soul of Jesus Isa three days after the crucifixion to wake up the sleeping body of Jesus Isa on the earth in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 when Jesus Isa delivered the message that Jesus Isa is not God by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross, after which they return to sleep again or die as in Quran 5:75 where Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa “use to eat food” meaning they both died 2000 years ago and Quran 3:144 where the “the messengers before Prophet Muhammad have died” meaning Jesus Isa is dead because Jesus Isa is the messenger before Prophet Muhammad. In Quran 5:117 Jesus died when he lived with the children of Israel 2000 years ago when he was raised by the angel of death). In this are signs (of God) for people who think.

Gospel of John 19:32 The Jews therefore, since it was Preparation Day, asked Pilate that their legs be broken and they be taken away, so that the bodies would not remain on the cross during the Sabbath; for that day was great among Sabbaths.

Comment:

1. Explain Gospel of John 19:32.

Gospel of John 19:32 (Now the body of Jesus was sleeping on the cross and the soul of Jesus was now safe in heaven and with God who is the carer of every soul and so God had helped his servant Jesus, but for those looking it seemed like Jesus was dead because Jesus had fainted and the body of Jesus was not moving)  The Jews therefore, since it was Preparation Day, asked (Governor) Pilate that their legs (the legs of the three men on the cross) be broken and they be taken away, so that the bodies would not remain on the cross during the Sabbath; for that day was great among Sabbaths.

Quran 3:54 Koran 3:54 And they (who disbelieved Prophet Jesus) plotted (to kill Jesus) but God also (had his) plan. And God is the best of the planners (meaning the plans of humans cannot be successful against the plans of God).

Quran 40:51 Koran 40:51 We (God) shall help Our (God’s) messengers and those who believe (in God) during the life of the world and on the Day (of Judgement) when the witnesses shall stand (to give evidence regarding your good and bad deeds).

Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 And they (some of the Jews of Yathrib in Arabia later Medina Arabia today Madinah Saudi Arabia) said (showing their pride and their disbelief by threatening and mocking the messenger Prophet Muhammad and his followers by boasting), "We killed messiah Jesus Isa, the son of Mary Maryam, the messenger of God," but (in fact) they did not kill him (on the cross) nor crucify him (to death on the cross), but it was made to appear so to them (so they believed he was dead on the cross because his body was not moving but in fact he was still alive and sleeping on the cross as explained in Quran 4:158 and 39:42) and those (Jews of Yathrib Arabia) who differ in this (in what happened to Prophet Jesus Isa on the cross) are full of doubts with no (certain) knowledge so they (the Jews of Yathrib) follow only conjecture (assumptions, speculation, guess). It is certain that they (the Jews) did not kill him (because God protected Prophet Jesus Isa from the death of crucifixion in 607 BH 33 CE 33 AD on Friday 3 April 33 in Jerusalem Al-Quds Yerussalem Yerushalayim in Judea today in Israel and Palestine and this is confirmed in the Gospel Injil where Jesus Isa is seen alive three days after the crucifixion teaching that he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross. 2000 years ago God saved the life of humans with sleep so that their body did not move making everyone think they were dead in the Injil Gospel of Mark 5:39 "... The child is not dead but sleeping", Gospel of Matthew 9:24 "... For the maiden meaning the girl has not died but sleeps ..." and the Gospel of Luke 8:52 "... She is not dead but sleeping". To prepare to test the faith of Prophet Jesus Isa by the threat of death by crucifixion God through the Holy Spirit removed from the mind of Prophet Jesus Isa the earlier events where God had saved people with sleep that looked like death by revealing the story of Lazarus in the Injil Gospel of John 11:11 – 11:14 where the Holy Spirit reveals to Jesus that sleep for Lazarus means Lazarus is dead. This was done so that Prophet Jesus Isa will believe he will die in the same way as Prophet Abraham Ibrahim believed his son would die. Prophet Jesus Isa passed the test of faith in God and God saved Prophet Jesus Isa like God saved the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim so that Prophet Jesus Isa could continue his life on the earth when God returned the soul from heaven to wake up the sleeping body on the earth as God had done before in the Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 “…"Damsel meaning girl, wake up!" And her spirit returned, and she stood up at once, and he ordered that she be given something to eat. This was proof that she was alive and not dead. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa was alive on the earth as proof that no one killed him on the cross or crucified him to death. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa taught the people that he is not God until his natural death 2000 years ago in Quran 5:75, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:117 and in all the four Gospels Injil. It is in the life of Prophet Jesus Isa after the crucifixion that Jesus told the people that he is not God so that no one will be able to claim in the hereafter that Prophet Jesus Isa did not tell them he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36).

Note 1. God saved Jesus Isa from death on the cross in Quran 4:157 and 4:158 so that Jesus Isa could continue his life and then die 2000 years ago like every human before him and after him has died in Quran 5:75 and 3:144. The natural death of Jesus Isa 2000 years ago is proof to the people in his time that Jesus Isa is human like every other human and he is not God or an equal partner with God.   

Three days after the crucifixion Jesus told Mary Magdalene to tell all the disciples that Jesus did not die on the cross in Gospel of John 20:17 “I have not yet ascended to the Father” meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with a miracle which made people think Jesus was dead on the cross in the same way God made people believe a sleeping person was dead in Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24 and Gospel of Luke 8:52.

The soul of every human ascends to God during sleep and when they die (Quran 39:42).

When Jesus says “I (Jesus) have not yet ascended to the Father (God)” Jesus is not talking about sleep because every human ascends to God every night during sleep therefore the meaning is Jesus has not yet died meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with sleep (Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24, Gospel of Luke 8:52, Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42) meaning Jesus did not die on the cross with death but was saved on the cross with sleep which looked like Jesus was dead and in this way God saved the life of Jesus meaning no one killed Jesus (Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 and Quran 39:42) meaning no one crucified Jesus to death (Quran 4:157) meaning Jesus was not sacrificed but was saved from death with sleep in Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42 for the same reason God saved the son of Abraham from death in a test of the faith in God of Abraham and Jesus.

When Jesus says "I (Jesus) am ascending to my Father (God) and your Father (God)" it means Jesus will die like every human dies meaning Jesus died a natural death at the end of his life 2000 years ago (Quran 3:144 and Quran 5:75) as proof Jesus is human and as proof Jesus is not God.

Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus says to her (Mary Magdalene), "Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father (God); but go to my brothers (my disciples), and tell them: 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father; to my God and your God.'"

Note 1. After the crucifixion Jesus says do not hold on to me to see if I am really alive, I have not yet ascended to my Father meaning I am not yet dead meaning I am really alive meaning I am not a ghost.

Quran 39:42 Koran 39:42 God takes the souls at the time of their death and (also takes the souls of) those who have not died (but are alive) during their sleep (when God saved the life of Jesus Isa with sleep so that his body did not move making everyone believe that Jesus Isa was dead on the cross in Quran 4:157 by raising the soul of Jesus Isa to heaven and to God in Quran 4:158). He (God) keeps those (souls) for which He (God) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls to awaken the sleeping body) for a predetermined period of time (such as when God returned the soul of Jesus Isa three days after the crucifixion to wake up the sleeping body of Jesus Isa on the earth in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 when Jesus Isa delivered the message that Jesus Isa is not God by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross, after which they return to sleep again or die as in Quran 5:75 where Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa “use to eat food” meaning they both died 2000 years ago and Quran 3:144 where the “the messengers before Prophet Muhammad have died” meaning Jesus Isa is dead because Jesus Isa is the messenger before Prophet Muhammad. In Quran 5:117 Jesus died when he lived with the children of Israel 2000 years ago when he was raised by the angel of death). In this are signs (of God) for people who think.

(Note 1. The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross.

(Note 2. When a human sleeps their soul is raised to heaven and to God.

(Note 3. When God returns the soul to a sleeping human their body will wake up.

(Note 4. Three days later Jesus was awake.

(Note 5. God saved Jesus from death.

The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross and the soul of Jesus was taken to heaven and to God then the soul of Jesus was returned three days later to Earth to awaken the sleeping body of Jesus.

(Note 6. Just as God twice protected Jesus from being stoned to death in the Gospel of John 8:59 and 10:31 so also God protected Jesus from being killed or crucified to death.

(Note 7. Prophet Muhammad confirms he is the prophet and messenger after Jesus by confirming that the Gospel correctly describes what the people saw which appeared to be the killing of Jesus and revealing in the Quran how God saved Jesus.

(Note 1. What is sleep?

When a human body sleeps the soul is raised to heaven and to God and that soul will return to awaken the sleeping body on the Earth.

The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross and the soul of Jesus was raised to heaven and to God.

God returned the soul to the sleeping body of Jesus 3 days later and the body of Jesus woke up and Jesus was seen alive.

(Note 2. What is death?

When a human body dies the soul is raised to heaven and to God and that soul will not return to the Earth.

After death the soul will be given a new physical body that can feel reward or punishment on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement.

When Jesus died a natural death God raised the soul of Jesus to heaven and to God and this death is confirmed by Jesus who said do not believe anyone who says that Jesus will return to this Earth (in Gospel of Mark 13;5, 13:6, 13:21, 13:22, 13:23) because the second coming of Jesus will be on the Day of Resurrection which is the second coming of every human including Jesus (in Gospel of Mark 13:27 and 14:62)

See Gospel of Matthew 24:29 and 24:30 comment.

See Gospel of Luke 21:25, 21:25 and 21:7 comment.

See Jesus said another comforter from God will come after him. See part B at the end of Gospel of John chapter 21. 

(Note 3. How do we know that Prophet Muhammad is not one of the false prophets that Jesus warned would falsely claim that Jesus will return to this Earth?

Answer 1: There is nothing in the Torah or Gospel or Quran about Jesus returning to this Earth.

Answer 2: Prophet Muhammad is not one of the false prophets who will falsely claim that Jesus will return to this Earth because there is nothing in the Quran about Jesus returning to this Earth.

Gospel of John 19:32 The soldiers came therefore, and broke the legs of the first one, and of the other crucified with him,

Gospel of John 19:33 but when they came to Jesus they realized he was already dead, and did not in his case break the legs.

Comment:

1. Explain Gospel of John 19:33.

Gospel of John 19:33 (Now the body of Jesus was sleeping on the cross and the soul of Jesus was now safe in heaven and with God who is the carer of every soul and so God had helped his servant Jesus, but for those looking it seemed like Jesus was dead because Jesus had fainted and the body of Jesus was not moving, so after the Roman soldiers had broken the legs of the two other men on the cross they came to Jesus)  but when they came to Jesus they realized he (Jesus) was already dead, and (they) did not in his case break the legs (of Jesus).

Quran 3:54 Koran 3:54 And they (who disbelieved Prophet Jesus) plotted (to kill Jesus) but God also (had his) plan. And God is the best of the planners (meaning the plans of humans cannot be successful against the plans of God).

Quran 40:51 Koran 40:51 We (God) shall help Our (God’s) messengers and those who believe (in God) during the life of the world and on the Day (of Judgement) when the witnesses shall stand (to give evidence regarding your good and bad deeds).

Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 And they (some of the Jews of Yathrib in Arabia later Medina Arabia today Madinah Saudi Arabia) said (showing their pride and their disbelief by threatening and mocking the messenger Prophet Muhammad and his followers by boasting), "We killed messiah Jesus Isa, the son of Mary Maryam, the messenger of God," but (in fact) they did not kill him (on the cross) nor crucify him (to death on the cross), but it was made to appear so to them (so they believed he was dead on the cross because his body was not moving but in fact he was still alive and sleeping on the cross as explained in Quran 4:158 and 39:42) and those (Jews of Yathrib Arabia) who differ in this (in what happened to Prophet Jesus Isa on the cross) are full of doubts with no (certain) knowledge so they (the Jews of Yathrib) follow only conjecture (assumptions, speculation, guess). It is certain that they (the Jews) did not kill him (because God protected Prophet Jesus Isa from the death of crucifixion in 607 BH 33 CE 33 AD on Friday 3 April 33 in Jerusalem Al-Quds Yerussalem Yerushalayim in Judea today in Israel and Palestine and this is confirmed in the Gospel Injil where Jesus Isa is seen alive three days after the crucifixion teaching that he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross. 2000 years ago God saved the life of humans with sleep so that their body did not move making everyone think they were dead in the Injil Gospel of Mark 5:39 "...

Note 1. God saved Jesus Isa from death on the cross in Quran 4:157 and 4:158 so that Jesus Isa could continue his life and then die 2000 years ago like every human before him and after him has died in Quran 5:75 and 3:144. The natural death of Jesus Isa 2000 years ago is proof to the people in his time that Jesus Isa is human like every other human and he is not God or an equal partner with God.   

Three days after the crucifixion Jesus told Mary Magdalene to tell all the disciples that Jesus did not die on the cross in Gospel of John 20:17 “I have not yet ascended to the Father” meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with a miracle which made people think Jesus was dead on the cross in the same way God made people believe a sleeping person was dead in Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24 and Gospel of Luke 8:52.

The soul of every human ascends to God during sleep and when they die (Quran 39:42).

When Jesus says “I (Jesus) have not yet ascended to the Father (God)” Jesus is not talking about sleep because every human ascends to God every night during sleep therefore the meaning is Jesus has not yet died meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with sleep (Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24, Gospel of Luke 8:52, Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42) meaning Jesus did not die on the cross with death but was saved on the cross with sleep which looked like Jesus was dead and in this way God saved the life of Jesus meaning no one killed Jesus (Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 and Quran 39:42) meaning no one crucified Jesus to death (Quran 4:157) meaning Jesus was not sacrificed but was saved from death with sleep in Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42 for the same reason God saved the son of Abraham from death in a test of the faith in God of Abraham and Jesus.

When Jesus says "I (Jesus) am ascending to my Father (God) and your Father (God)" it means Jesus will die like every human dies meaning Jesus died a natural death at the end of his life 2000 years ago (Quran 3:144 and Quran 5:75) as proof Jesus is human and as proof Jesus is not God.

Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus says to her (Mary Magdalene), "Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father (God); but go to my brothers (my disciples), and tell them: 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father; to my God and your God.'"

Note 1. After the crucifixion Jesus says do not hold on to me to see if I am really alive, I have not yet ascended to my Father meaning I am not yet dead meaning I am really alive meaning I am not a ghost.

Quran 39:42 Koran 39:42 God takes the souls at the time of their death and (also takes the souls of) those who have not died (but are alive) during their sleep (when God saved the life of Jesus Isa with sleep so that his body did not move making everyone believe that Jesus Isa was dead on the cross in Quran 4:157 by raising the soul of Jesus Isa to heaven and to God in Quran 4:158).

He (God) keeps those (souls) for which He (God) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls to awaken the sleeping body) for a predetermined period of time (such as when God returned the soul of Jesus Isa three days after the crucifixion to wake up the sleeping body of Jesus Isa on the earth in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 when Jesus Isa delivered the message that Jesus Isa is not God by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross, after which they return to sleep again or die as in Quran 5:75 where Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa “use to eat food” meaning they both died 2000 years ago and Quran 3:144 where the “the messengers before Prophet Muhammad have died” meaning Jesus Isa is dead because Jesus Isa is the messenger before Prophet Muhammad. In Quran 5:117 Jesus died when he lived with the children of Israel 2000 years ago when he was raised by the angel of death). In this are signs (of God) for people who think.

(Note 1. The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross.

(Note 2. When a human sleeps their soul is raised to heaven and to God.

(Note 3. When God returns the soul to a sleeping human their body will wake up.

(Note 4. Three days later Jesus was awake.

(Note 5. God saved Jesus from death.

The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross and the soul of Jesus was taken to heaven and to God then the soul of Jesus was returned three days later to Earth to awaken the sleeping body of Jesus.

(Note 6. Just as God twice protected Jesus from being stoned to death in the Gospel of John 8:59 and 10:31 so also God protected Jesus from being killed or crucified to death.

(Note 7. Prophet Muhammad confirms he is the prophet and messenger after Jesus by confirming that the Gospel correctly describes what the people saw which appeared to be the killing of Jesus and revealing in the Quran how God saved Jesus.

(Note 1. What is sleep?

When a human body sleeps the soul is raised to heaven and to God and that soul will return to awaken the sleeping body on the Earth.

The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross and the soul of Jesus was raised to heaven and to God.

God returned the soul to the sleeping body of Jesus 3 days later and the body of Jesus woke up and Jesus was seen alive.

(Note 2. What is death?

When a human body dies the soul is raised to heaven and to God and that soul will not return to the Earth.

After death the soul will be given a new physical body that can feel reward or punishment on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement.

When Jesus died a natural death God raised the soul of Jesus to heaven and to God and this death is confirmed by Jesus who said do not believe anyone who says that Jesus will return to this Earth (in Gospel of Mark 13;5, 13:6, 13:21, 13:22, 13:23) because the second coming of Jesus will be on the Day of Resurrection which is the second coming of every human including Jesus (in Gospel of Mark 13:27 and 14:62) 

See Gospel of Mark 13;5, 13:6, 13:21, 13:22, 13:23, 13:26, 13:27 and 14:62 comment.

See Gospel of Matthew 24:29 and 24:30 comment.

See Gospel of Luke 21:25, 21:25 and 21:7 comment.

See Jesus said another comforter from God will come after him. See part B at the end of Gospel of John chapter 21. 

(Note 3. How do we know that Prophet Muhammad is not one of the false prophets that Jesus warned would falsely claim that Jesus will return to this Earth?

Answer 1: There is nothing in the Torah or Gospel or Quran about Jesus returning to this Earth.

Answer 2: Prophet Muhammad is not one of the false prophets who will falsely claim that Jesus will return to this Earth because there is nothing in the Quran about Jesus returning to this Earth.

1-1. If Jesus was sleeping why did Jesus not wake up when the spear pierced the side of his body?

Jesus did not wake up because the body of Jesus was sleeping on the cross but the soul of Jesus was in Heaven under the care of God so all the people who saw the crucifixion were now certain that Jesus was dead on the cross but in fact the body of Jesus was still alive on the cross because God protected the body and the soul of Jesus with a three day sleep.

Gospel of John 20:27 Thereupon he (Jesus) says to Thomas, "Bring your finger here, and see my hands (where the nails made their mark), and bring your hand and put it into my side (where the spear made a mark), and do not be unbelieving, but (be) believing (that I Jesus am alive)."

Note 1. Jesus shows he was not killed or crucified to death because with your eyes and ears and touch you know that Jesus is alive meaning God saved the life of Jesus with sleep when Jesus was on the cross. 

In the time of Jesus God saved the life of humans with sleep so that their body did not move making everyone think they were dead.

Gospel of Mark 5:39 "... The child is not dead but sleeping", 

Gospel of Matthew 9:24 "... For the maiden meaning the girl has not died but sleeps ..." 

Gospel of Luke 8:52 "... She is not dead but sleeping"

Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 “…"Damsel meaning girl, wake up!" And her spirit returned,

Note 2. Jesus did not wake up when the spear pierced the side of his body because the body of Jesus was sleeping on the cross but the soul of Jesus was in Heaven under the care of God so all the people who saw the crucifixion were now certain that Jesus was dead on the cross but in fact the body of Jesus was still alive on the cross because God protected the body and the soul of Jesus with a three day sleep.

1-2. Why did God make people believe that Jesus was dead 2000 years ago?

On the Day of Judgement those people 2000 years ago who were happy when they believed they had killed Jesus shall be unable to deny their sin.

Those among the Jews who 2000 years ago did not support what appeared to be the killing of Jesus will be free of that sin.

1-3. Why did God make people believe that Jesus was dead 1400 years ago?

Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 And they (some of the Jews of Yathrib in Arabia later Medina Arabia today Madinah Saudi Arabia) said (showing their pride and their disbelief by threatening and mocking the messenger Prophet Muhammad and his followers by boasting), "We killed messiah Jesus Isa, the son of Mary Maryam, the messenger of God," but (in fact) they did not kill him (on the cross) nor crucify him (to death on the cross), but it was made to appear so to them (so they believed he was dead on the cross because his body was not moving but in fact he was still alive and sleeping on the cross as explained in Quran 4:158 and 39:42) and those (Jews of Yathrib Arabia) who differ in this (in what happened to Prophet Jesus Isa on the cross) are full of doubts with no (certain) knowledge so they (the Jews of Yathrib) follow only conjecture (assumptions, speculation, guess). It is certain that they (the Jews) did not kill him (because God protected Prophet Jesus Isa from the death of crucifixion in 607 BH 33 CE 33 AD on Friday 3 April 33 in Jerusalem Al-Quds Yerussalem Yerushalayim in Judea today in Israel and Palestine and this is confirmed in the Gospel Injil where Jesus Isa is seen alive three days after the crucifixion teaching that he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross. 2000 years ago God saved the life of humans with sleep so that their body did not move making everyone think they were dead in the Injil Gospel of Mark 5:39 "... The child is not dead but sleeping", Gospel of Matthew 9:24 "... For the maiden meaning the girl has not died but sleeps ..." and the Gospel of Luke 8:52 "... She is not dead but sleeping". To prepare to test the faith of Prophet Jesus Isa by the threat of death by crucifixion God through the Holy Spirit removed from the mind of Prophet Jesus Isa the earlier events where God had saved people with sleep that looked like death by revealing the story of Lazarus in the Injil Gospel of John 11:11 – 11:14 where the Holy Spirit reveals to Jesus that sleep for Lazarus means Lazarus is dead. This was done so that Prophet Jesus Isa will believe he will die in the same way as Prophet Abraham Ibrahim believed his son would die. Prophet Jesus Isa passed the test of faith in God and God saved Prophet Jesus Isa like God saved the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim so that Prophet Jesus Isa could continue his life on the earth when God returned the soul from heaven to wake up the sleeping body on the earth as God had done before in the Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 “…"Damsel meaning girl, wake up!" And her spirit returned, and she stood up at once, and he ordered that she be given something to eat. This was proof that she was alive and not dead. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa was alive on the earth as proof that no one killed him on the cross or crucified him to death. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa taught the people that he is not God until his natural death 2000 years ago in Quran 5:75, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:117 and in all the four Gospels Injil. It is in the life of Prophet Jesus Isa after the crucifixion that Jesus told the people that he is not God so that no one will be able to claim in the hereafter that Prophet Jesus Isa did not tell them he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36).

Note 1. God saved Jesus Isa from death on the cross in Quran 4:157 and 4:158 so that Jesus Isa could continue his life and then die 2000 years ago like every human before him and after him has died in Quran 5:75 and 3:144. The natural death of Jesus Isa 2000 years ago is proof to the people in his time that Jesus Isa is human like every other human and he is not God or an equal partner with God.   

(Note 2. On the Day of Judgement those people in Yathrib Arabia 1400 years ago who were happy to believe that their fathers had killed Jesus shall be unable to deny their sin of supporting evil doing.

Those among the Jews in Yathrib Arabia who 1400 years ago did not support the mocking of Jesus will be free of the sin of supporting that evil doing.

1-4. What is the correct belief about Jesus today?

Gospel of John 20:28 Thomas responded and said to him (Jesus), "My Lord (it is you! You are alive! Meaning Rabbouni the lord in Gospel of John 20:16-20:18 where Mary tells everyone she has seen Rabbouni the lord not the lord God) and my God (thank you for saving the life of Jesus and returning Jesus back to us.” When something amazing happens the Jewish people thank God. Today when something amazing happens people say “My God”).

Note 1. In Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus told Mary to tell all his disciples that God is “my Father and your Father” meaning my creator and your creator and God is “my God and your God” meaning my lord and your lord and Jesus taught the Jewish Scripture where “God is not a man” so 2000 years ago no Jew who talked with Jesus was thinking that Jesus was God.

Note 2. Jesus was doing miracles like Moses did miracles so to Jews who talked with Jesus he was a prophet who did what some prophets did in the past.

Note 3. If someone told you that Jesus is alive and his message is “God is my Father and your Father” meaning Jesus is not God and “God is my God and your God” meaning Jesus is not God and you did not believe Jesus was alive like Thomas you would be very surprised to see Jesus alive and today someone in that same situation might say “my God” in surprise or the religious might say "My Lord (Jesus you are alive) and my God (thank you for saving the life of Jesus and returning Jesus back to us)." 

Note 4. Lord means master.  

Messiah king David is also called lord meaning master.

In the Tanakh Hebrew scripture the first “LORD” in Psalm 110:1 is the name of God but the second lord means master and refers to messiah king David.

Psalm 110:1 The LORD (God) said to my lord (David): 'you sit at My right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool.'

Comment:

1. Explain Gospel of John 19:37.

Gospel of John 19:37 And again, another scripture (Jewish Hebrew Bible Zechariah 12:10) says: "They shall look upon him whom they have pierced."

Jewish Hebrew Bible Zechariah 12:9 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I (God) will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem (Al-Quds).

Jewish Hebrew Bible Zechariah 12:10 And I (God) will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem (Al-Quds), the spirit of grace and of supplication; and they (the people of Jerusalem Al-Quds) shall look to Me (God) because they have thrust him (their leader) through (meaning killed their leader); and they (the people) shall mourn for him (their leader), (in the same way) as one mourns for (having lost) his only son, and shall be in bitterness (unhappiness) for (having lost) him (their leader), as one that is in bitterness (unhappiness) for (having lost) his (own) first-born (child).

Video: Christian Challenges Rabbi Tovia Singer Live on Air! Wasn’t Jesus the messiah the son of Joseph?

In the Babylonian Talmud Sukkah 52a why is the messiah the son of Joseph and the messiah the son of David not the same person?

Messiah the son of Joseph is killed in the end time war and messiah the son of David will rule in the end of times meaning Messiah the son of Joseph and Messiah the son of David are two different people in the end of days.

Messiah the son of Joseph is killed in a war at the end of times.

The war where Israel will be successful is described in Zechariah 12:2-12:3 and Zechariah 12:8.

However there will be a person killed in battle in Zechariah 12:10 who is the messiah (a person in a leadership position) the son of Joseph.

Zechariah 12:11 describes the mourning of the people because of the death of the messiah the son of Joseph which will result in the repentance of the Jewish people in Isaiah 59:20 which is necessary before the arrival of the messiah (anointed as a king in the Davidic covenant) the son of David.

Jesus' burial.

Comment:

The body of Jesus was not buried under the ground but was laid on top of flat rock in a cave.

Gospel of John 19:38 And after these things, Joseph from Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but secretly because of the fear of the Jews, made request of Pilate that he might take the body of Jesus; and Pilate consented. He went therefore, and took his body.

Comment:

1. Who is Joseph from Arimathea?

Who is Joseph of Arimathea?

Joseph of Arimathea was a wealthy Jew and a member of the Sanhedrin religious court and a faithful secret disciple of Jesus.

Joseph of Arimathea was a faithful secret disciple of Jesus.

Joseph of Arimathea was a secret disciple of Jesus because Joseph was a member of the Sanhedrin (the assembly or council that was the highest Jewish religious court) where some religious leaders had been plotting to find ways of killing Jesus.

1-1. Why did Joseph of Arimathea secretly make the request to remove the body of Jesus to the Governor of Judea?

Joseph of Arimathea was a member of the Sanhedrin assembly (council) the highest Jewish religious court and he did not want the Sanhedrin assembly to know that he was a disciple of Jesus.

1-2. What is the Sanhedrin?

The Sanhedrin is the assembly or council that was the highest Jewish religious court in Jerusalem Al-Quds Judea today in Israel and Palestine.

In the time of Jesus the Great Sanhedrin met in the second Temple of God on the Temple Mount every day except festivals and the Sabbath (the Day of Rest and remembrance of God).

1-3. Who is Pilate?

Pontius Pilate was an idol worshiper because the religion of the Roman Empire was idol worship.

Pontius Pilate was the Roman Governor of Judea today Israel and Palestine.

Pontius Pilate was the judge for the Roman Empire in the trial of Jesus.

Pontius Pilate who had authority from the Emperor of the Roman Empire authorized the crucifixion of Jesus.

2. How did God help His messengers? 

Quran 40:51 Koran 40:51 We (God) shall help Our (God’s) messengers and those who believe (in God) during the life of the world and on the Day (of Judgement) when the witnesses shall stand (to give evidence regarding your good and bad deeds).

1-1. How did God help Moses during the life of the world? 

Remember when those who disbelieved (in God) plotted (with the Pharaoh of Egypt) against you (Prophet Moses, about whether) to restrain you or to kill you or to evict you (from Egypt), they made (their) plans but God also planed (by commanding you to leave Egypt with the children of Israel) and God is the best of planners (meaning the plans of humans cannot be successful against the plans of God). 

God saved Moses and the children of Israel from the Pharaoh and his army.

1-2. How did God help Jesus during the crucifixion? 

Quran 3:54 Koran 3:54 And they (who disbelieved Prophet Jesus) plotted (to kill Jesus) but God also (had his) plan. And God is the best of the planners (meaning the plans of humans cannot be successful against the plans of God).

Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 And they (some of the Jews of Yathrib in Arabia later Medina Arabia today Madinah Saudi Arabia) said (showing their pride and their disbelief by threatening and mocking the messenger Prophet Muhammad and his followers by boasting), "We killed messiah Jesus Isa, the son of Mary Maryam, the messenger of God," but (in fact) they did not kill him (on the cross) nor crucify him (to death on the cross), but it was made to appear so to them (so they believed he was dead on the cross because his body was not moving but in fact he was still alive and sleeping on the cross as explained in Quran 4:158 and 39:42) and those (Jews of Yathrib Arabia) who differ in this (in what happened to Prophet Jesus Isa on the cross) are full of doubts with no (certain) knowledge so they (the Jews of Yathrib) follow only conjecture (assumptions, speculation, guess). It is certain that they (the Jews) did not kill him (because God protected Prophet Jesus Isa from the death of crucifixion in 607 BH 33 CE 33 AD on Friday 3 April 33 in Jerusalem Al-Quds Yerussalem Yerushalayim in Judea today in Israel and Palestine and this is confirmed in the Gospel Injil where Jesus Isa is seen alive three days after the crucifixion teaching that he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross. 2000 years ago God saved the life of humans with sleep so that their body did not move making everyone think they were dead in the Injil Gospel of Mark 5:39 "... The child is not dead but sleeping", Gospel of Matthew 9:24 "... For the maiden meaning the girl has not died but sleeps ..." and the Gospel of Luke 8:52 "... She is not dead but sleeping". To prepare to test the faith of Prophet Jesus Isa by the threat of death by crucifixion God through the Holy Spirit removed from the mind of Prophet Jesus Isa the earlier events where God had saved people with sleep that looked like death by revealing the story of Lazarus in the Injil Gospel of John 11:11 – 11:14 where the Holy Spirit reveals to Jesus that sleep for Lazarus means Lazarus is dead. This was done so that Prophet Jesus Isa will believe he will die in the same way as Prophet Abraham Ibrahim believed his son would die. Prophet Jesus Isa passed the test of faith in God and God saved Prophet Jesus Isa like God saved the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim so that Prophet Jesus Isa could continue his life on the earth when God returned the soul from heaven to wake up the sleeping body on the earth as God had done before in the Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 “…"Damsel meaning girl, wake up!" And her spirit returned, and she stood up at once, and he ordered that she be given something to eat. This was proof that she was alive and not dead. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa was alive on the earth as proof that no one killed him on the cross or crucified him to death. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa taught the people that he is not God until his natural death 2000 years ago in Quran 5:75, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:117 and in all the four Gospels Injil. It is in the life of Prophet Jesus Isa after the crucifixion that Jesus told the people that he is not God so that no one will be able to claim in the hereafter that Prophet Jesus Isa did not tell them he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36).

Note 1. God saved Jesus Isa from death on the cross in Quran 4:157 and 4:158 so that Jesus Isa could continue his life and then die 2000 years ago like every human before him and after him has died in Quran 5:75 and 3:144. The natural death of Jesus Isa 2000 years ago is proof to the people in his time that Jesus Isa is human like every other human and he is not God or an equal partner with God.   

Three days after the crucifixion Jesus told Mary Magdalene to tell all the disciples that Jesus did not die on the cross in Gospel of John 20:17 “I have not yet ascended to the Father” meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with a miracle which made people think Jesus was dead on the cross in the same way God made people believe a sleeping person was dead in Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24 and Gospel of Luke 8:52.

The soul of every human ascends to God during sleep and when they die (Quran 39:42).

When Jesus says “I (Jesus) have not yet ascended to the Father (God)” Jesus is not talking about sleep because every human ascends to God every night during sleep therefore the meaning is Jesus has not yet died meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with sleep (Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24, Gospel of Luke 8:52, Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42) meaning Jesus did not die on the cross with death but was saved on the cross with sleep which looked like Jesus was dead and in this way God saved the life of Jesus meaning no one killed Jesus (Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 and Quran 39:42) meaning no one crucified Jesus to death (Quran 4:157) meaning Jesus was not sacrificed but was saved from death with sleep in Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42 for the same reason God saved the son of Abraham from death in a test of the faith in God of Abraham and Jesus.

When Jesus says "I (Jesus) am ascending to my Father (God) and your Father (God)" it means Jesus will die like every human dies meaning Jesus died a natural death at the end of his life 2000 years ago (Quran 3:144 and Quran 5:75) as proof Jesus is human and as proof Jesus is not God.

Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus says to her (Mary Magdalene), "Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father (God); but go to my brothers (my disciples), and tell them: 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father; to my God and your God.'"

Note 1. After the crucifixion Jesus says do not hold on to me to see if I am really alive, I have not yet ascended to my Father meaning I am not yet dead meaning I am really alive meaning I am not a ghost.

Quran 39:42 Koran 39:42 God takes the souls at the time of their death and (also takes the souls of) those who have not died (but are alive) during their sleep (when God saved the life of Jesus Isa with sleep so that his body did not move making everyone believe that Jesus Isa was dead on the cross in Quran 4:157 by raising the soul of Jesus Isa to heaven and to God in Quran 4:158). He (God) keeps those (souls) for which He (God) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls to awaken the sleeping body) for a predetermined period of time (such as when God returned the soul of Jesus Isa three days after the crucifixion to wake up the sleeping body of Jesus Isa on the earth in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 when Jesus Isa delivered the message that Jesus Isa is not God by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross, after which they return to sleep again or die as in Quran 5:75 where Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa “use to eat food” meaning they both died 2000 years ago and Quran 3:144 where the “the messengers before Prophet Muhammad have died” meaning Jesus Isa is dead because Jesus Isa is the messenger before Prophet Muhammad. In Quran 5:117 Jesus died when he lived with the children of Israel 2000 years ago when he was raised by the angel of death). In this are signs (of God) for people who think.

(Note 1. The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross.

(Note 2. When a human sleeps their soul is raised to heaven and to God.

(Note 3. When God returns the soul to a sleeping human their body will wake up.

(Note 4. Three days later Jesus was awake.

(Note 5. God saved Jesus from death.

The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross and the soul of Jesus was taken to heaven and to God then the soul of Jesus was returned three days later to Earth to awaken the sleeping body of Jesus.

(Note 6. Just as God twice protected Jesus from being stoned to death in the Gospel of John 8:59 and 10:31 so also God protected Jesus from being killed or crucified to death.

(Note 7. Prophet Muhammad confirms he is the prophet and messenger after Jesus by confirming that the Gospel correctly describes what the people saw which appeared to be the killing of Jesus and revealing in the Quran how God saved Jesus.

(Note 1. What is sleep?

When a human body sleeps the soul is raised to heaven and to God and that soul will return to awaken the sleeping body on the Earth.

The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross and the soul of Jesus was raised to heaven and to God.

God returned the soul to the sleeping body of Jesus 3 days later and the body of Jesus woke up and Jesus was seen alive.

(Note 2. What is death?

When a human body dies the soul is raised to heaven and to God and that soul will not return to the Earth.

After death the soul will be given a new physical body that can feel reward or punishment on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement.

When Jesus died a natural death God raised the soul of Jesus to heaven and to God and this death is confirmed by Jesus who said do not believe anyone who says that Jesus will return to this Earth (in Gospel of Mark 13;5, 13:6, 13:21, 13:22, 13:23) because the second coming of Jesus will be on the Day of Resurrection which is the second coming of every human including Jesus (in Gospel of Mark 13:27 and 14:62)

Answer 2: Prophet Muhammad is not one of the false prophets who will falsely claim that Jesus will return to this Earth because there is nothing in the Quran about Jesus returning to this Earth.

1-3. How did God help Muhammad during the life of the world? 

Quran 8:30 Koran 8:30 Remember when those who disbelieved (in God) plotted (at the meeting of the chiefs in the idol worshipper council in Mecca, Arabia today Saudi Arabia) against you (Prophet Muhammad, about whether) to restrain you or to kill you or to evict you (from Mecca), they made (their) plans but God also planed (by commanding you Prophet Muhammad to leave Mecca) and God is the best of planners (meaning the plans of humans cannot be successful against the plans of God).

Comment:

1. Explain Gospel of John 19:39.

Gospel of John 19:39 And Nicodemus, the one who earlier had come to Him by night, came as well, carrying a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds (in weight).

1-1. Who is Nicodemus?

Nicodemus was a wealthy Jew who favoured Jesus.

Nicodemus was a Pharisee and a member of the Sanhedrin assembly (council) the highest Jewish religious court in Jerusalem Al-Quds Judea today in Israel and Palestine.

1-2. Why had Nicodemus at an earlier time secretly come to Jesus at night?

Nicodemus was a member of the Sanhedrin assembly (council, the highest Jewish religious court) and the Pharisees and he did not want the Sanhedrin assembly and the Pharisees to know that he was in favour of Jesus because some of those religious leaders had been plotting to find ways of killing Jesus.

.

1-3. What is the Sanhedrin?

The Sanhedrin is the assembly or council that was the highest Jewish religious court in Jerusalem Al-Quds Judea today in Israel and Palestine.

In the time of Jesus the Great Sanhedrin met in the second Temple of God on the Temple Mount every day except festivals and the Sabbath (the Day of Rest and remembrance of God).

In the time of Jesus a Jewish sect called the Pharisees believed in the written Torah, the oral law (Jewish stories) and the resurrection of the dead in the Hereafter.

The Pharisees were in Judea today in Israel and Palestine in the period of the second Jewish Temple in Jerusalem, Al-Quds from the second century BCE (BC) until the destruction of the second Jewish Temple in 569 BH (70 CE).

Much in today’s traditional Judaism and Jewish Rabbis developed from the religious Pharisee tradition.

1-4. What is myrrh?

Myrrh is a fragrant gum resin from small thorny trees used as spices.

1-5. What is aloes?

Aloes are succulent plants used as spices.

Gospel of John 19:40 They then took the body of Jesus, and bound it in linen cloths, with the spices, as is the burial custom with the Jews.

Gospel of John 19:41 And there was in the place where he was crucified, a garden, and in the garden a new tomb, one in which no one had ever yet been laid.

Gospel of John 19:42 So, since it was Preparation for the Jews, and because the tomb was close at hand, that is where they laid Jesus.

Comment:

The body of Jesus was not buried under the ground but was laid on top of flat rock in a cave.

Gospel of John 20:2 She (Mary the Magdalene) runs therefore, and goes to Simon Peter and to the other disciple (who is), the one whom Jesus loved (named John, John the evangelist, John the Apostle, the Beloved Disciple), and she (Mary the Magdalene) says to them, "They have taken the Lord (Master, Teacher Jesus) out of the tomb, and we don't know where they have put him."

1-1. Jesus is called Lord meaning Master and teacher.

In the time of Jesus no one believed that Jesus is God because everything that Jesus did was the same as every prophet and messenger had done before Jesus which was to deliver the word of God to the people.

See Gospel of John 20:13 comment.

1-2. Who is the disciple whom Jesus loved?

The disciple who Jesus loved is John.

The disciple who Jesus loved is the title given to John.

This is only a title because in fact Jesus loved all of his disciples.

The son of God is a title given to Jesus in the Gospel to mean Jesus is the servant of God.

This is only a title because in fact every creation is the servant of God.

Comment:

Explain Gospel of John 20:9.

Gospel of John 20:9 For they did not yet understand the scripture that he had to rise from the dead  (because scripture says every human will rise to life again from the dead on the day of Resurrection).

Note 1. Three days after the crucifixion in Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus said “I have not yet ascended to God meaning Jesus did not die meaning no one sacrificed Jesus.

Gospel of John 20:17 “I have not yet ascended to the Father (God, meaning I have not yet died). 

Quran 40:51 Koran 40:51 We (God) shall help Our (God’s) messengers and those who believe (in God) during the life of the world and on the Day (of Judgement) when the witnesses shall stand (to give evidence regarding your good and bad deeds).

Quran 3:54 Koran 3:54 And they (who disbelieved Prophet Jesus) plotted (to kill Jesus) but God also (had his) plan. And God is the best of the planners (meaning the plans of humans cannot be successful against the plans of God).

Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 And they (some of the Jews of Yathrib in Arabia later Medina Arabia today Madinah Saudi Arabia) said (showing their pride and their disbelief by threatening and mocking the messenger Prophet Muhammad and his followers by boasting), "We killed messiah Jesus Isa, the son of Mary Maryam, the messenger of God," but (in fact) they did not kill him (on the cross) nor crucify him (to death on the cross), but it was made to appear so to them (so they believed he was dead on the cross because his body was not moving but in fact he was still alive and sleeping on the cross as explained in Quran 4:158 and 39:42) and those (Jews of Yathrib Arabia) who differ in this (in what happened to Prophet Jesus Isa on the cross) are full of doubts with no (certain) knowledge so they (the Jews of Yathrib) follow only conjecture (assumptions, speculation, guess). It is certain that they (the Jews) did not kill him (because God protected Prophet Jesus Isa from the death of crucifixion in 607 BH 33 CE 33 AD on Friday 3 April 33 in Jerusalem Al-Quds Yerussalem Yerushalayim in Judea today in Israel and Palestine and this is confirmed in the Gospel Injil where Jesus Isa is seen alive three days after the crucifixion teaching that he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross. 2000 years ago God saved the life of humans with sleep so that their body did not move making everyone think they were dead in the Injil Gospel of Mark 5:39 "... The child is not dead but sleeping", Gospel of Matthew 9:24 "... For the maiden meaning the girl has not died but sleeps ..." and the Gospel of Luke 8:52 "... She is not dead but sleeping". To prepare to test the faith of Prophet Jesus Isa by the threat of death by crucifixion God through the Holy Spirit removed from the mind of Prophet Jesus Isa the earlier events where God had saved people with sleep that looked like death by revealing the story of Lazarus in the Injil Gospel of John 11:11 – 11:14 where the Holy Spirit reveals to Jesus that sleep for Lazarus means Lazarus is dead. This was done so that Prophet Jesus Isa will believe he will die in the same way as Prophet Abraham Ibrahim believed his son would die. Prophet Jesus Isa passed the test of faith in God and God saved Prophet Jesus Isa like God saved the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim so that Prophet Jesus Isa could continue his life on the earth when God returned the soul from heaven to wake up the sleeping body on the earth as God had done before in the Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 “…"Damsel meaning girl, wake up!" And her spirit returned, and she stood up at once, and he ordered that she be given something to eat. This was proof that she was alive and not dead. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa was alive on the earth as proof that no one killed him on the cross or crucified him to death. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa taught the people that he is not God until his natural death 2000 years ago in Quran 5:75, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:117 and in all the four Gospels Injil. It is in the life of Prophet Jesus Isa after the crucifixion that Jesus told the people that he is not God so that no one will be able to claim in the hereafter that Prophet Jesus Isa did not tell them he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36).

Note 1. God saved Jesus Isa from death on the cross in Quran 4:157 and 4:158 so that Jesus Isa could continue his life and then die 2000 years ago like every human before him and after him has died in Quran 5:75 and 3:144. The natural death of Jesus Isa 2000 years ago is proof to the people in his time that Jesus Isa is human like every other human and he is not God or an equal partner with God.   

Three days after the crucifixion Jesus told Mary Magdalene to tell all the disciples that Jesus did not die on the cross in Gospel of John 20:17 “I have not yet ascended to the Father” meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with a miracle which made people think Jesus was dead on the cross in the same way God made people believe a sleeping person was dead in Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24 and Gospel of Luke 8:52.

The soul of every human ascends to God during sleep and when they die (Quran 39:42).

When Jesus says “I (Jesus) have not yet ascended to the Father (God)” Jesus is not talking about sleep because every human ascends to God every night during sleep therefore the meaning is Jesus has not yet died meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with sleep (Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24, Gospel of Luke 8:52, Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42) meaning Jesus did not die on the cross with death but was saved on the cross with sleep which looked like Jesus was dead and in this way God saved the life of Jesus meaning no one killed Jesus (Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 and Quran 39:42) meaning no one crucified Jesus to death (Quran 4:157) meaning Jesus was not sacrificed but was saved from death with sleep in Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42 for the same reason God saved the son of Abraham from death in a test of the faith in God of Abraham and Jesus.

When Jesus says "I (Jesus) am ascending to my Father (God) and your Father (God)" it means Jesus will die like every human dies meaning Jesus died a natural death at the end of his life 2000 years ago (Quran 3:144 and Quran 5:75) as proof Jesus is human and as proof Jesus is not God.

Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus says to her (Mary Magdalene), "Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father (God); but go to my brothers (my disciples), and tell them: 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father; to my God and your God.'"

Note 1. After the crucifixion Jesus says do not hold on to me to see if I am really alive, I have not yet ascended to my Father meaning I am not yet dead meaning I am really alive meaning I am not a ghost.

Quran 39:42 Koran 39:42 God takes the souls at the time of their death and (also takes the souls of) those who have not died (but are alive) during their sleep (when God saved the life of Jesus Isa with sleep so that his body did not move making everyone believe that Jesus Isa was dead on the cross in Quran 4:157 by raising the soul of Jesus Isa to heaven and to God in Quran 4:158). He (God) keeps those (souls) for which He (God) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls to awaken the sleeping body) for a predetermined period of time (such as when God returned the soul of Jesus Isa three days after the crucifixion to wake up the sleeping body of Jesus Isa on the earth in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 when Jesus Isa delivered the message that Jesus Isa is not God by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross, after which they return to sleep again or die as in Quran 5:75 where Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa “use to eat food” meaning they both died 2000 years ago and Quran 3:144 where the “the messengers before Prophet Muhammad have died” meaning Jesus Isa is dead because Jesus Isa is the messenger before Prophet Muhammad. In Quran 5:117 Jesus died when he lived with the children of Israel 2000 years ago when he was raised by the angel of death). In this are signs (of God) for people who think.

(Note 1. The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross.

(Note 2. When a human sleeps their soul is raised to heaven and to God.

(Note 3. When God returns the soul to a sleeping human their body will wake up.

(Note 4. Three days later Jesus was awake.

(Note 5. God saved Jesus from death.

The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross and the soul of Jesus was taken to heaven and to God then the soul of Jesus was returned three days later to Earth to awaken the sleeping body of Jesus.

(Note 6. Just as God twice protected Jesus from being stoned to death in the Gospel of John 8:59 and 10:31 so also God protected Jesus from being killed or crucified to death.

(Note 7. Prophet Muhammad confirms he is the prophet and messenger after Jesus by confirming that the Gospel correctly describes what the people saw which appeared to be the killing of Jesus and revealing in the Quran how God saved Jesus.

(Note 1. What is sleep?

When a human body sleeps the soul is raised to heaven and to God and that soul will return to awaken the sleeping body on the Earth.

The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross and the soul of Jesus was raised to heaven and to God.

God returned the soul to the sleeping body of Jesus 3 days later and the body of Jesus woke up and Jesus was seen alive.

(Note 2. What is death?

When a human body dies the soul is raised to heaven and to God and that soul will not return to the Earth.

After death the soul will be given a new physical body that can feel reward or punishment on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement.

When Jesus died a natural death God raised the soul of Jesus to heaven and to God and this death is confirmed by Jesus who said do not believe anyone who says that Jesus will return to this Earth (in Gospel of Mark 13;5, 13:6, 13:21, 13:22, 13:23) because the second coming of Jesus will be on the Day of Resurrection which is the second coming of every human including Jesus (in Gospel of Mark 13:27 and 14:62) 

See Gospel of Mark 13;5, 13:6, 13:21, 13:22, 13:23, 13:26, 13:27 and 14:62 comment.

See Gospel of Matthew 24:29 and 24:30 comment.

See Gospel of Luke 21:25, 21:25 and 21:7 comment.

See Jesus said another comforter from God will come after him. See part B at the end of Gospel of John chapter 21. 

(Note 3. How do we know that Prophet Muhammad is not one of the false prophets that Jesus warned would falsely claim that Jesus will return to this Earth?

Answer 1: There is nothing in the Torah or Gospel or Quran about Jesus returning to this Earth.

Answer 2: Prophet Muhammad is not one of the false prophets who will falsely claim that Jesus will return to this Earth because there is nothing in the Quran about Jesus returning to this Earth.

Jesus appears to Mary of Magdala.

Gospel of John 20:10 The disciples then went back to their own homes.

Gospel of John 20:11 But Mary stayed with the tomb, and there she stands, outside, weeping.

Comment:

1. Explain Gospel of John 20:11.

Gospel of John 20:11 But Mary (Mary Magdalene) stayed with the tomb, and there she stands, outside (the cave where the body of Jesus had been and she is), weeping (crying).

Mary the Magdalene became a disciple of Jesus when Jesus removed seven demons from her body.

Mary the Magdalene was among the women who went to the tomb where the body of Jesus had been placed.

Mary the Magdalene is of the children of Israel.

Mary the Magdalene is Jewish.

Gospel of John 20:12 As she thus was weeping, she stooped down into the tomb, and she beholds two angels in white, one sitting at the head and one sitting at the foot of where the body of Jesus had been lying.

Comment:

1. Explain Gospel of John 20:12.

Gospel of John 20:12 As she (Mary Magdalene) thus was weeping, she stooped down into the tomb, and she beholds (sees) two angels in white, one sitting at the head and one sitting at the foot of where the body of Jesus had been lying.

2. What is an angel?

An angel is an obedient servant of God who can take the form of a man and the form of a body with wings.

Gospel of Luke 1:35 And in answer the angel (the Holy Spirit Angel Gabriel who came in the form of a man) said to her (the virgin Mary), "The Holy Spirit (the Holy Spirit Angel Gabriel who will come in the form of a dove, a body with wings, an angel) will come upon you (to deliver to your womb a soul created by God for your son Jesus), and the power of the Most High (God) will overshadow you (so that what God has decreed is fulfilled without failure). For this reason also, the one to be born will be called holy (the blessed), the Son of God (meaning the servant of God, the slave of God, the prophet and messenger and messiah sent by God). 

(Note 1. The power is God who is the creator of every creation.

(Note 2. Mary and Jesus and the Holy Spirit are the created servants of God.

(Note 3. God created the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel and God shows how God revealed Himself to humans such as Mary and Jesus through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel.

(Note 4. God created Jesus and there is not one creation that God has not created because God is the creator of every creation.

(Note 5. Angels including the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel may appear in the form of a man or in their true form as a body with wings (like a bird, like a dove, an angel).

Gospel of Mark 1:10 And going up out of the water he (Jesus) immediately saw the heavens opening, and the Spirit (Holy Spirit, Holy Ghost, Angel Gabriel) as a dove (like a bird, an angel) coming down to him (Jesus). 

(Note 1. The Holy Spirit is an angel.

Gospel of Matthew 3:16 As soon as he (Jesus) was baptized (by John the Baptizer), Jesus came up out of the water, and behold, the heavens were opened, and he saw the Holy Spirit of God (angel Gabriel) coming down like a dove (a body with wings, an angel), coming onto him (Jesus). 

(Note 1. The Holy Spirit of God is an angel of God.

Gospel of Luke 3:22 and the Holy Spirit (angel Gabriel) descended on him (Jesus) in the bodily form of a dove (a body with wings, an angel) …”

(Note 1. The Holy Ghost is an angel of God.

Gospel of Luke 1:19 “… “I am Gabriel, one who stands in the presence of God and I have been sent to speak to you …”

(Note 1. This shows how God reveals himself through the Holy Spirit.

Quran 2:97 Koran 2:97 Say (Prophet Muhammad, to the people), who is against (Angel) Gabriel? because it is he (Angel Gabriel) who has revealed this (Scripture, the Quran) to your heart (Prophet Muhammad) by God’s permission, confirming what was revealed before it (in the Gospel and in the Torah), and as a guidance and good news for those who believe.

(Note 1. The Holy Spirit is angel Gabriel.

Quran 2:253 Koran 2:253 “… To (messenger, prophet and messiah) Jesus the son of Mary We (God through the Holy Spirit) gave signs (of his truthfulness) and strengthened him (Jesus) with (guidance through) the Holy Spirit (Angel Gabriel, the Holy Ghost) …”

(Note 1. The Holy Spirit is angel Gabriel.

Gospel of John 20:13 And they say to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?" She says to them, "They have taken my Lord away, and I don't know where they have put him."

Comment:

1. Explain Gospel of John 20:13.

Gospel of John 20:13 And they (the two angel of God) say to her (Mary Magdalene), "Woman, why are you weeping?" She (Mary Magdalene) says to them, "They (some people) have taken my Lord (Master’s body, teacher’s body) away, and I (Mary Magdalene) don't know where they have put him (the body of Jesus)."

Note 1. Jesus is called Lord meaning Master and teacher.

Note 2. In the time of Prophet Jesus no one believed that Jesus is God because Jesus was delivering the words of God like the prophets before him who all confirmed that God is not a man in Numbers 23:19 and 1 Samuel 15:29 and Hosea 11:9 and God is not the son of man in Numbers 23:19 and do not liken anyone or anything to God in Isaiah 40:25 and Isaiah 46:5 meaning Jesus is not God in the sight of all the people who saw him 2000 years ago.

Gospel of Matthew 21:11 And the crowds would say, "This is the prophet Jesus, from Nazareth, Galilee."  

Note 1. The people said Jesus is a prophet.

Gospel of John 6:14 Then the people, having seen the miraculous sign he (Jesus the messenger of God) had done, were saying, "This (Jesus) surely is the Prophet who was to come into the world."

Gospel of John 9:17 Then they are talking to the blind man again: "What do you say about him (Jesus)? For it was your eyes he (Jesus) opened." And he (the blind man) said, "He (Jesus) is a prophet."

Gospel of Luke 24:19 And he said to them, "What things?" And they said to him, "The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, who was a prophet powerful in deed and in word, in the eyes of both God and all the people;  

Note 1. Jesus was a prophet in the sight of both God and all the people.

Gospel of Luke 7:16 And fear (awe) took hold of all, and they praised God, saying, "A great prophet (named Jesus) has been raised up among us (the children of Israel)," and, God (through His prophet) has come to help his people (the children of Israel)." 

Note 1. When Jesus brought the dead back to life the Jews called Jesus a prophet and not God.

Note 2. When the dead are brought back to life the Jews thank God for sending Prophet Jesus to them.

Note 3. The Jewish people who saw the dead brought back to life understood the difference between a created human prophet named Jesus and God who is the creator of every creation.

2. What does “Lord” Jesus mean?

Lord means Master, Teacher (see 2-1 and 2-2 below).

2-1. Jesus is called Teacher before and after Jesus was on the cross.

Jesus is never called God.

Gospel of Matthew 22:36 "Teacher (Jesus), which is the greatest commandment in the law?"

(Note 1. Jesus is called Teacher by the people before Jesus was on the cross.

(Note 2. In the time of Jesus no one believed that Jesus was God.

Gospel of John 20:16 Jesus says to her, "Mary." She (Mary Magdalene) when she (Mary Magdalene) turned around, says to him (Jesus) in Hebrew, "Rabbouni!" (which means Teacher).

(Note 1. Jesus is called Teacher by the disciple of Jesus who first saw Jesus alive three days after Jesus had been on the cross.

(Note 2. In the time of Jesus no one believed that Jesus was God.

In Psalm 110:1 in Tanakh Jewish scripture after messiah King David said “My God my God why have you forsaken me” in Psalm 22 then God revealed through Prophet Nathan in Psalm 110:1 “My Lord (God) said to my lord (messiah King David)” words that show God has not forsaken the messiah King David.

https://sites.google.com/view/islamandthekoran/psalm-110-1-explained 

2-2. Jesus before and after Jesus was on the cross is called lord meaning Master, Teacher.

Jesus is never called God.

Gospel of Matthew 22:41 And as long as the Pharisees were collected together, Jesus questioned them,

Gospel of Matthew 22:42 saying: "What do you all think about the Christ (the messiah)- whose son is he?" They (the Pharisees) are saying, "David's."

Gospel of Matthew 22:43 He (Jesus) says, "How is it then that David, by the (guidance of the Holy) Spirit, calls him (David) Lord, saying,

Gospel of Matthew 22:44 'Yahweh (God) said to my Lord (my Master David), "Sit at my (God’s) right hand (among the righteous followers of God) until such time I (God) put your enemies under your feet." 

(Note 1. Another way this verse is written is:

Gospel of Matthew 22:44 "LORD (God) said to my Lord (my Master David): "Sit at my (God’s) right hand (among the righteous followers of God) until such time I (God) put your enemies under your feet." '

(Note 2. Jesus showed that Jesus like David is not God.

Jesus showed that Jesus like David is not God by showing that David like Jesus is a servant who obeys the orders of God when a third person explains that God commanded David.

See Psalm 110:1 (below).

Jewish Hebrew Bible Psalm 110:1 A Psalm to David. (The messiah king David asked “My God my God why have you forsaken me” in Psalm 22:1 - 22:2 or Psalm 22:2 - 22:3 in Tanakh and Prophet Nathan told the messiah king David), The LORD (God) said to my (Prophet Nathan's) lord (who is the messiah King David): 'You (King David) sit at My (God’s) right hand (meaning trust God and be patient), until I (God) make your enemies your footstool (meaning your servants. See Psalm 110:5-110:7).' 

(Note 1. The first Lord is the Hebrew name of God.

(Note 2. The second lord is master and is always a human.

https://sites.google.com/view/islamandthekoran/psalm-110-1-explained 

Gospel of John 20:13 And they (the two angel of God) say to her (Mary Magdalene), "Woman, why are you weeping?" She (Mary Magdalene) says to them, "They (some people) have taken my Lord (Master’s body, teacher’s body) away, and I (Mary Magdalene) don't know where they have put him (the body of Jesus)."

(Note 1. When Jesus was thought to be dead Jesus was called Lord meaning master, teacher.

(Note 2. No one in the time of Jesus thought that Jesus was God.

Gospel of John 20:16 Jesus says to her, "Mary." She (Mary Magdalene) when she (Mary Magdalene) turned around, says to him (Jesus) in Hebrew, "Rabbouni!" (which means Teacher).

(Note 1. After the body of Jesus was put in a cave and Jesus was later seen alive Jesus was called teacher.

(Note 2. No one in the time of Jesus thought that Jesus was God.

Gospel of John 21:7 So that disciple whom Jesus loved (named John) says to Peter, "It is the Lord (our master and teacher Jesus) …”

(Note 1. After the body of Jesus was put in a cave and Jesus was later seen alive Jesus was called Lord meaning master, teacher.

(Note 2. No one in the time of Jesus thought that Jesus was God.

2-3. Those who believe in God also believe the messengers sent by God.

Gospel of John 20:28 Thomas responded and said to him (Jesus), "My Lord (it is you! You are alive! Meaning Rabbouni the lord in Gospel of John 20:16-20:18 where Mary tells everyone she has seen Rabbouni the lord not the lord God) and my God (thank you for saving the life of Jesus and returning Jesus back to us.” When something amazing happens the Jewish people thank God. Today when something amazing happens people say “My God”).

Note 1. In Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus told Mary to tell all his disciples that God is “my Father and your Father” meaning my creator and your creator and God is “my God and your God” meaning my lord and your lord and Jesus taught the Jewish Scripture where “God is not a man” so 2000 years ago no Jew who talked with Jesus was thinking that Jesus was God.

Note 2. Jesus was doing miracles like Moses did miracles so to Jews who talked with Jesus he was a prophet who did what some prophets did in the past.

Note 3. If someone told you that Jesus is alive and his message is “God is my Father and your Father” meaning Jesus is not God and “God is my God and your God” meaning Jesus is not God and you did not believe Jesus was alive like Thomas you would be very surprised to see Jesus alive and today someone in that same situation might say “my God” in surprise or the religious might say "My Lord (Jesus you are alive) and my God (thank you for saving the life of Jesus and returning Jesus back to us)." 

Note 4. Lord means master.  

Messiah king David is also called lord meaning master.

In the Tanakh Hebrew scripture the first “LORD” in Psalm 110:1 is the name of God but the second lord means master and refers to messiah king David.

Psalm 110:1 The LORD (God) said to my lord (David): 'you sit at My right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool.'

Torah Deuteronomy 18:18 (Therefore) I (God) shall raise up for them a prophet (Prophet Joshua Yusha followed by prophet after prophet, messenger after messenger) like you (Prophet Moses) from among their own brothers (Isaac and Ishmael are brothers and descendants and brethren to the children of Israel and the Arabian people through Prophet Abraham who was the father of Isaac and Ishmael) and I (God through the Holy Spirit Angel Gabriel) shall put my (God’s) words in the mouth of the prophet, who shall speak to them (the people) everything that I (God) command.”

(Note 1. The Torah commands humans to believe the messengers of God.

(Note 2. A prophet of God speaks in the name of God.

(Note 3. A messenger of God speaks in the name of God.

(Note 4. A messiah of God speaks in the name of God.

Torah Deuteronomy 18:19 It shall happen that whoever shall not pay attention to My words (God’s words) which he (the prophet) shall speak in My name (God’s name); I (God) shall require it from him (meaning that God requires the people to listen and to obey God’s prophets).

(Note 1. The Torah commands humans to believe the messengers of God.

(Note 2. A prophet of God speaks in the name of God.

(Note 3. A messenger of God speaks in the name of God.

(Note 4. A messiah of God speaks in the name of God.

Gospel of John 14:6 Jesus says to him, "I (Jesus the messenger of God) am the way (to understanding God who is the creator of every creation), and the truth (of the existence of God) and the life (after death in Paradise for the righteous among humans). No one (2000 years ago and after that time) comes to the Father (God) except through me (Jesus, meaning except through following the message from God that was delivered through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel to Jesus in the Good News Gospel).

(Note 1. The Gospel commands humans to believe the messengers of God.

Gospel of John 14:10 Do you not believe that I (Jesus the messenger of God) am in the Father (God, because every truthful messenger speaks in the name of God exactly what God has decreed them to speak) and the Father (God) is in me (Jesus, through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel who reveals the word of God to the heart of Jesus)? The statements which I (Jesus) say to you I (Jesus) do not speak from myself (Jesus), but (in the name of) the Father (God who makes revelations to the heart of Jesus through the Holy Spirit angel Gabriel who are) abiding in me (Jesus as the messenger of God and this is how God) is doing his works (as God has done with every prophet and messenger and messiah in human history).

(Note 1. The Gospel commands humans to believe the messengers of God.

Quran 2:136 Koran 2:136 (Prophet Muhammad) say (to them), "We believe in God and the revelation given to us and to Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob (Israel) and the Tribes (the 12 tribes of the children of Israel), and that given to Moses and Jesus, and that given to (all) prophets from their Lord (God). We make no difference between one (prophet) and another (we say that all the prophets have the same message which is that there is one and only one God who is the creator of every creation) and we submit (our will) to (the will of) God."

(Note 1. The Quran commands humans to believe the messengers of God.

Quran 4:159 Koran 4:159 And there is not (one person) from the people of the Book (Quran 4:159 are not the Christians because Christianity did not exist until after the natural death of Prophet Jesus Isa on the earth 2000 years ago in Quran 3:55, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:75, Quran 5:117 and Quran 39:42 meaning Jesus Isa was not a witness when his followers abandoned Judaism and created a new religion called Christianity because God had decreed there will be more than one “community” of God on the earth so that God can test who is best in behaviour between and within each “community” of God after God ordered His “communities” of Judaism and Christianity and Islam to “strive for all that is good” in Quran 5:48 where God explains why God did not make only one “community” of God for the people of the earth. Jesus Isa was only a witness among the Jewish people. Jesus and Mary and Joseph and the twelve disciples of Jesus were Jewish. The people of the Book in Quran 4:159 are the Jews who saw and heard Prophet Jesus Isa 2000 years ago when Jesus Isa was living in Quran 3:55, Quran 4:157, Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42 and there is not one person from the Jewish people who saw and heard Prophet Jesus Isa 2000 years ago) but surely he believes in him (Prophet Jesus Isa as described in the Gospel of Luke 24:19 “… The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, who was a prophet powerful in deed and in word, in the eyes of both God and all the people” and as described in Gospel of Mark 12:29 “… Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord” and as described in Gospel of Matthew 24:36 “But as for that day and hour, no one knows it except the Father God alone; not even the angels of heaven meaning the Holy Spirit and the other angels who are servants of God, not even the Son” meaning Jesus who is a servant of God and as described in Gospel of Matthew 5:18 “For truly I say to you, until the sky and the earth pass away meaning until the end of the earth, not one iota, not one serif meaning not a dot of one letter, will by any means pass away from the Law meaning the Torah Taurat until everything is carried out” meaning on the Day of Judgement which is after the end of the earth and as described in Gospel of Matthew 5:19 “Therefore, whoever looses one of the least of these commandments meaning in the Torah Taurat, and teaches people the same, will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices them meaning practices the Torah Taurat and teaches them meaning teaches the Torah Taurat, this one will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.” A Jewish person living 2000 years ago in the time of the  living prophet Jesus Isa who saw and heard that prophet speak must believe) before his death (means before the death of any person who saw and heard Prophet Jesus Isa 2000 years ago he must believe in him) otherwise on the Day of Resurrection he (Prophet Jesus Isa) shall be a witness against them (in Quran 7:6 and Quran 5:117 and Quran 3:55 because Jesus Isa can only testify about what he saw when he lived before his natural death on the earth 2000 years ago in Quran 3:144, Quran 5:75, Quran 5:117 and Quran 39:42. Jesus in Quran 7:6 testifies to God in the hereafter in Quran 5:117 “… I was a witness to them when I lived among them ...” meaning in the hereafter Jesus Isa will testify he was raised only one time by the angel of death when Jesus Isa lived among the children of Israel 2000 years ago. Both God and Jesus make no mention that in the religion of Islam Jesus will return to this earth because it contradicts Quran 33:40 which forbid any prophet from coming to this earth after the death of Prophet Muhammad. Jesus Isa is a prophet wherever he may be so it is forbidden by God in Quran 33:40 for Jesus Isa to return to life until every human is returned to life on the Day of Resurrection on a new earth meaning a new ground in the hereafter as explained in Quran 5:117 comments. The Jews who saw and heard Prophet Muhammad 1400 years ago and mocked and threatened him by claiming “they killed Prophet Jesus Isa” on the cross in Quran 4:157 testified that they supported an unjust killing which their guardian angel has recorded against them in Quran 50:17 – 50:18 and the record of their deeds will be given to them in the hereafter in Quran 39:69. Quran 4:159 does not apply to Jews in all times because Jews who lived before the time of Jesus Isa did not know Jesus Isa and because after the time of Jesus Isa many Jews disbelieved in Jesus Isa because some Christians claimed “Jesus is God or part of God” which contradicts what God taught the Jews in Torah Numbers 23:19 “God is not a man or the son of man.” Many Jews do not know the message about Jesus in the Quran because Satan Shaitan whispers "Muslims are dangerous people and it is best to stay far away from them." However Satan Shaitan cannot succeed against the righteous among the Jewish people who follow the Torah Taurat which God promised to protect forever in Quran 2:40-2:41, Quran 2:62, Quran 3:113 - 3:115, Quran 5:69, Exodus 2:24, Leviticus 26:44-26:45, Deuteronomy 4:2, Deuteronomy 4:31, Deuteronomy 5:10, Deuteronomy 7:7-7:8, Deuteronomy 12:1, Deuteronomy 29:28 in Jewish Tanakh or Deuteronomy 29:29 in a Christian Bible, 2 King 13:23, Psalm 19:8-19:12 in Jewish Tanakh or Psalm 19:7-19:11 in Christian Old Testament Bible, Psalm 111:7 - 111:9, Hosea 3:4-3:5, Daniel 12:2, Isaiah 59:21 is the promise to the Jewish people mentioned in Isaiah 36:11, Isaiah 36:13 and Gospel of Matthew 5:17-5:20 meaning the Torah Taurat protects the same commandment delivered by every messenger of God to pray only to the one God who created every creation and to do good deeds in this world. The righteous Jews who do not know Jesus Isa or the Quran have been correctly guided by God to worship only God as explained by God in Quran 5:48 where God has created more than one “community’ of God and God is guiding each community through what God “has given them” in His protected books as explained in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQ3o3ybc-KA  Jews, Christians, Muslims and others are promised Paradise Jannah in Quran 2:62, Quran 3:113 – 3:115. Quran 4:162, Quran 5:48, Quran 5:69, Quran 5:82 – 5:85 and Quran 41:8 confirming the promise in the Jewish Hebrew Bible to the Jews and in the Gospel Injil to the Christians. Quran 4:159, Quran 5:117, Quran 7:6 and Quran 39:69 show that in the time of a living prophet he can be a witness in the hereafter against people who lived in his time. Quran 3:113 – 3:115 shows that in the time of Prophet Muhammad the righteous Jews followed Judaism and believed Prophet Muhammad as explained by God in Quran 5:48 and those Jews were promised Paradise by God in Quran 3:115. Quran 5:82 – 5:85 shows that in the time of Prophet Muhammad the righteous Christians followed Christianity and believed Prophet Muhammad as decreed by God in Quran 5:48 and were promised Paradise by God in Quran 5:85. Jews and Christians have been told to follow their Books in Quran 3:93, Quran 5:43, Quran 5:47, Quran 5:48 and Quran 5:68 so that three “communities” of God are created and established on the earth until the Day of Judgement. Jews like Quran 3:113-3:115 and Christians like Quran 5:82-5:85 who follow their Book in Quran 5:68 and also believe the Quran will receive a double reward in the hereafter in Quran 28:54, Quran 34:37 and Quran 57:28 meaning the reward for every good deed they do will be doubled because they believed the Quran which tells the Jewish people to follow the Torah Taurat which is their eternal covenant between God and the Hebrew people forever and tells the Christian people to follow the Gospel Injil which is explained in the Quran and tells the Muslim people to follow the Quran is confirmed in Quran 2:40, Quran 2:41, Quran 2:62, Quran 2:106, Quran 3:93, Quran 4:123, Quran 5:43, Quran 5:47, Quran 5:48, Quran 5:69 and Quran 13:39. Today there is no prophet and every human is tested by God according to Quran 5:48 to show in the hereafter who is best in behaviour. Quran 5:48, Quran 3:64 and Quran 98:5 shows that Jews who follow the Jewish Hebrew Bible and Christians who follow the four Gospels Injil and Muslims who follow the Quran are correctly guided if God wills because those books have the same command to pray only to the one creator of every creation and to do good deeds in this world. Jews follow the Torah Taurat. Christian can know that whatever in the four Gospels contradicts the Torah Taurat came from the Gospel writers and not from God in a test described in 1 Kings 13:14 - 13:24 teaching that the word of God will not change and do not believe anyone who claims the word of God has changed. Muslims follow the Quran which confirms the Torah Taurat is correct and explains the story of Jesus in the Gospel. Jews, Christians, Muslims and others can come together in each generation testifying their submission to God in Quran 3:64 to promote peace making in Quran 4:114 as an example of good behaviour by those who know God to those who do not know God in Quran 45:14. The purpose of Quran 4:159 where everyone who saw and heard Prophet Jesus must have believed in him 2000 years ago otherwise Prophet Jesus will testify against them is for the people who are living in the time of Prophet Muhammad to know that everyone who saw and heard Prophet Muhammad 1400 years ago must have believed in him otherwise Prophet Muhammad will testify against them.Today there are no prophets meaning Prophet Jesus and Prophet Muhammad will only testify about the people in their time because they will have no knowledge about any other people except what God reveals to them).

Quran 39:69 Koran 39:69 And the earth (meaning, the land in the hereafter) shall shine with the light of its Lord (God, when God shall come to judge men and women on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement) and the Book (of their good and bad deeds) shall be shown. (In the judgement of each person) the Prophets (the messenger of God in the time of that person or the messenger of God that the person claimed to follow) and the witnesses (the Holy angels including the Holy Spirit and humans) shall be brought and it (the good and bad deeds of men and women) shall be judged between them (the Prophets and the witnesses and the Book of their good and bad deeds) with (the) truth (as God decreed) and they (those who are judged) shall not be wronged (by any incorrect judgement of what they did during their lifetime on the Earth).

(Note 1. The Quran commands humans to believe the messengers of God.

(Note 2. The prophet who is the messenger of God that each person claimed to follow or who lived during their time will be present at their judgement on the Day of Judgement.

Gospel of John 20:14 When she had said these things, she looked toward the rear, and beholds Jesus having been standing; and she did not realize that it was Jesus.

Comment:

1. How could Jesus be standing if Jesus was dead?

2. Where is proof that God protected Jesus from death on the cross?

Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 And they (some of the Jews of Yathrib in Arabia later Medina Arabia today Madinah Saudi Arabia) said (showing their pride and their disbelief by threatening and mocking the messenger Prophet Muhammad and his followers by boasting), "We killed messiah Jesus Isa, the son of Mary Maryam, the messenger of God," but (in fact) they did not kill him (on the cross) nor crucify him (to death on the cross), but it was made to appear so to them (so they believed he was dead on the cross because his body was not moving but in fact he was still alive and sleeping on the cross as explained in Quran 4:158 and 39:42) and those (Jews of Yathrib Arabia) who differ in this (in what happened to Prophet Jesus Isa on the cross) are full of doubts with no (certain) knowledge so they (the Jews of Yathrib) follow only conjecture (assumptions, speculation, guess). It is certain that they (the Jews) did not kill him (because God protected Prophet Jesus Isa from the death of crucifixion in 607 BH 33 CE 33 AD on Friday 3 April 33 in Jerusalem Al-Quds Yerussalem Yerushalayim in Judea today in Israel and Palestine and this is confirmed in the Gospel Injil where Jesus Isa is seen alive three days after the crucifixion teaching that he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross. 2000 years ago God saved the life of humans with sleep so that their body did not move making everyone think they were dead in the Injil Gospel of Mark 5:39 "... The child is not dead but sleeping", Gospel of Matthew 9:24 "... For the maiden meaning the girl has not died but sleeps ..." and the Gospel of Luke 8:52 "... She is not dead but sleeping". To prepare to test the faith of Prophet Jesus Isa by the threat of death by crucifixion God through the Holy Spirit removed from the mind of Prophet Jesus Isa the earlier events where God had saved people with sleep that looked like death by revealing the story of Lazarus in the Injil Gospel of John 11:11 – 11:14 where the Holy Spirit reveals to Jesus that sleep for Lazarus means Lazarus is dead. This was done so that Prophet Jesus Isa will believe he will die in the same way as Prophet Abraham Ibrahim believed his son would die. Prophet Jesus Isa passed the test of faith in God and God saved Prophet Jesus Isa like God saved the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim so that Prophet Jesus Isa could continue his life on the earth when God returned the soul from heaven to wake up the sleeping body on the earth as God had done before in the Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 “…"Damsel meaning girl, wake up!" And her spirit returned, and she stood up at once, and he ordered that she be given something to eat. This was proof that she was alive and not dead. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa was alive on the earth as proof that no one killed him on the cross or crucified him to death. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa taught the people that he is not God until his natural death 2000 years ago in Quran 5:75, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:117 and in all the four Gospels Injil. It is in the life of Prophet Jesus Isa after the crucifixion that Jesus told the people that he is not God so that no one will be able to claim in the hereafter that Prophet Jesus Isa did not tell them he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36).

Note 0. God saved Jesus Isa from death on the cross in Quran 4:157 and 4:158 so that Jesus Isa could continue his life and then die 2000 years ago like every human before him and after him has died in Quran 5:75 and 3:144. The natural death of Jesus Isa 2000 years ago is proof to the people in his time that Jesus Isa is human like every other human and he is not God or an equal partner with God.   

(Note 1. Just as 2000 years ago some Roman soldiers in Jerusalem Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine mocked Jesus to show their disbelief in Jesus in the same way some of the Jews of Yathrib Arabia today in Saudi Arabia mocked Jesus 1400 years ago to show their disbelief in both Jesus and Muhammad.

See Gospel of John 19:3.

(Note 2. God protected the life of Jesus from the death of crucifixion by giving sleep to the body of Jesus and raising the soul of Jesus to heaven and to God just as every human soul is raised to heaven and to God during sleep.

(Note 3. God saved Jesus by making the body of Jesus fall into sleep on the cross so although it appeared that Jesus had died on the cross from the death of crucifixion as is correctly described in the Gospel by those who saw it infact God saved Jesus from the death of crucifixion by God giving sleep to the body of Jesus as is revealed by the prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus in the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26 – 15:27, 16:7 – 16:15 see in Reference 1 at the end of the Gospel of John.

(Note 4. Prophet Muhammad confirms he is the prophet and messenger after Jesus by confirming that the Gospel correctly describes what the people saw which appeared to be the killing of Jesus and revealing in the Quran how God saved Jesus.

(Note 5. Three days after the crucifixion Jesus said he did not die.

Three days after the crucifixion Jesus told Mary Magdalene to tell all the disciples that Jesus did not die on the cross in Gospel of John 20:17 “I have not yet ascended to the Father” meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with a miracle which made people think Jesus was dead on the cross in the same way God made people believe a sleeping person was dead in Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24 and Gospel of Luke 8:52.

The soul of every human ascends to God during sleep and when they die (Quran 39:42).

When Jesus says “I (Jesus) have not yet ascended to the Father (God)” Jesus is not talking about sleep because every human ascends to God every night during sleep therefore the meaning is Jesus has not yet died meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with sleep (Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24, Gospel of Luke 8:52, Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42) meaning Jesus did not die on the cross with death but was saved on the cross with sleep which looked like Jesus was dead and in this way God saved the life of Jesus meaning no one killed Jesus (Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 and Quran 39:42) meaning no one crucified Jesus to death (Quran 4:157) meaning Jesus was not sacrificed but was saved from death with sleep in Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42 for the same reason God saved the son of Abraham from death in a test of the faith in God of Abraham and Jesus.

When Jesus says "I (Jesus) am ascending to my Father (God) and your Father (God)" it means Jesus will die like every human dies meaning Jesus died a natural death at the end of his life 2000 years ago (Quran 3:144 and Quran 5:75) as proof Jesus is human and as proof Jesus is not God.

Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus says to her (Mary Magdalene), "Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father (God); but go to my brothers (my disciples), and tell them: 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father; to my God and your God.'"

Note. After the crucifixion Jesus says do not hold on to me to see if I am really alive, I have not yet ascended to my Father meaning I am not yet dead meaning I am really alive meaning I am not a ghost.

(Note 6. The prophet that Jesus said would come after Jesus confirmed and explained Gospel of John 20:17 where Jesus said he did not die on the cross.

Quran 39:42 Koran 39:42 God takes the souls at the time of their death and (also takes the souls of) those who have not died (but are alive) during their sleep (when God saved the life of Jesus Isa with sleep so that his body did not move making everyone believe that Jesus Isa was dead on the cross in Quran 4:157 by raising the soul of Jesus Isa to heaven and to God in Quran 4:158). He (God) keeps those (souls) for which He (God) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls to awaken the sleeping body) for a predetermined period of time (such as when God returned the soul of Jesus Isa three days after the crucifixion to wake up the sleeping body of Jesus Isa on the earth in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 when Jesus Isa delivered the message that Jesus Isa is not God by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross, after which they return to sleep again or die as in Quran 5:75 where Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa “use to eat food” meaning they both died 2000 years ago and Quran 3:144 where the “the messengers before Prophet Muhammad have died” meaning Jesus Isa is dead because Jesus Isa is the messenger before Prophet Muhammad. In Quran 5:117 Jesus died when he lived with the children of Israel 2000 years ago when he was raised by the angel of death). In this are signs (of God) for people who think.

Gospel of John 20:15 Jesus says to her, "Woman, why are you weeping? Who are you looking for?" She, thinking he is the gardener, says to him, "Sir, if it is you who took him, tell me where you put him, and I will get him.

Comment:

1. Explain Gospel of John 20:15.

Gospel of John 20:15 Jesus says to her (Mary Magdalene), "Woman, why are you weeping? Who are you looking for?" She, thinking he (Jesus) is the gardener, says to him (Jesus), "Sir, if it is you who took him (the body of Jesus), tell me (Mary Magdalene) where you put him (the body of Jesus), and I (Mary Magdalene) will get him (the body of Jesus).

1-1. How could Mary Magdalene not recognise Jesus?

God made Jesus appear like a man who is a Gardner to Mary just as God made Jesus appear to be dead on the cross to all who saw Jesus 3 days earlier.

Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 “… they did not kill him (Jesus) nor crucify him (to death, they did not crucify Jesus to death), but it was made to appear so (to them, so they believed Jesus was dead on the cross but in fact Jesus was still alive on the cross) …” 

Gospel of Luke 24:16 (Regarding the two followers of Jesus) their eyes, however, were being restrained (by God), so as not to recognize him (Jesus).

(Note 1. God made Jesus appear like a stranger to some of the believers of Jesus just as God made Jesus appear to be dead on the cross to all who saw Jesus 3 days earlier.

(Note 2. God made Jesus appear like a stranger to some of the believers of Jesus so as to reveal their belief that Jesus is a prophet of God in the Gospel of Luke 24:19 (below).

(Note 3. No one in the time of Jesus believed that Jesus was God. 

(Note 4. Jesus and the disciples of Jesus are from the children of Israel.

(Note 5. Jesus and the disciples of Jesus are Jewish.

(Note 6. Every Jew knows that the belief that a human can be God is the religion of human idol worship which God forbids in the Torah.

(Note 7. Jesus never said that Jesus is God because Jesus prayed to God like every human prays to God.

Gospel of Luke 24:19 And he (Jesus) said to them, "What things?" And they (the followers of Jesus) said to him, "The things concerning Jesus the Nazarene, who was a prophet powerful in deed and in word, in the eyes of both God and all the people (who believe in God and in Prophet Jesus);

(Note 1. God and the people who followed Jesus in the time of Jesus all saw that Jesus was a human prophet, messenger and messiah.

(Note 2. No one in the time of Jesus believed that Jesus was God. 

(Note 3. Jesus and the disciples of Jesus are from the children of Israel.

(Note 4. Jesus and the disciples of Jesus are Jewish.

(Note 5. Every Jew knows that the belief that a human can be God is the religion of human idol worship which God forbids in the Torah.

(Note 6. Jesus never said that Jesus is God because Jesus prayed to God like every human prays to God.

Gospel of John 20:16 Jesus says to her, "Mary." She when she turned around, says to him in Hebrew, "Rabbouni!" (which means Teacher).

Comment:

1. Explain Gospel of John 20:16.

Gospel of John 20:16 Jesus says to her, "Mary." She (Mary Magdalene) when she (Mary Magdalene) turned around, says to him (Jesus) in Hebrew, "Rabbouni!" (which means Teacher).

1-1. Jesus is called Rabbouni meaning teacher.

In the time of Jesus no one believed that Jesus is God because everything that Jesus did was the same as every prophet and messenger had done before Jesus which was to deliver the word of God to the people.

Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus says to her, "Do not cleave to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brothers, and tell them: 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father; to my God and your God.'"

Comment:

1. Explain Gospel of John 20:17.

In the Gospel three days after the crucifixion Jesus said he has not yet died.

Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus says to her (Mary Magdalene), "Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father (God); but go to my brothers (my disciples), and tell them: 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father; to my God and your God.'"

Note 1. The soul of every human ascends to God during sleep and when they die (Quran 39:42).

When Jesus says “I (Jesus) have not yet ascended to the Father (God)” Jesus is not talking about sleep because every human ascends to God every night during sleep therefore the meaning is Jesus has not yet died meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with sleep (Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24, Gospel of Luke 8:52, Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42) meaning Jesus did not die on the cross with death but was saved on the cross with sleep which looked like Jesus was dead and in this way God saved the life of Jesus meaning no one killed Jesus (Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 and Quran 39:42) meaning no one crucified Jesus to death (Quran 4:157).

When Jesus says "I (Jesus) am ascending to my Father (God) and your Father (God)" it means Jesus will die like every human dies meaning Jesus died a natural death at the end of his life 2000 years ago (Quran 3:144 and Quran 5:75) as proof Jesus is human and as proof Jesus is not God. 

Note 2. After the crucifixion Jesus says do not hold on to me to see if I am really alive, I have not yet ascended to my Father meaning I am not yet dead meaning I am really alive meaning I am not a ghost.

Note 3. Jesus said tell the brothers that God is My Father and your Father meaning God is my creator and your creator because the father is the creator of every creation.

Malachi 2:10 Have we not all one father (God)? Has not one God created us? …”

Note 4. Jesus said tell the brothers that God is My God and your God meaning God is my lord and your lord.

Note 5. Three days after the crucifixion Jesus tells Mary Magdalene to tell his brothers (his disciples) that “I have not yet ascended to the Father” meaning Jesus was saved by God from the death of crucifixion.

Note 6. Three days after the crucifixion Jesus tells Mary Magdalene to tell his brothers (his disciples) that “I am ascending to my Father” meaning Jesus will die like every human dies as proof Jesus is human meaning do not let a miracle make you think that Jesus is more than a man like you meaning Jesus will die like you will die because all humans die as proof they are humans.

Note 7. Three days after the crucifixion Jesus tells Mary Magdalene to tell his brothers (his disciples) that God is “my Father and your Father” meaning God is my creator and your creator meaning do not let a miracle make you think that Jesus is more than a man like you.

Note 8. Three days after the crucifixion Jesus tells Mary Magdalene to tell his brothers (his disciples) that God is “my God and your God” meaning God is my Lord and your Lord meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning do not let a miracle make you think that Jesus is more than a man like you.

Note 9. No one tells people they are not God unless something amazing has happened which might cause confusion about who Jesus is. This is the reason Jesus is telling Mary Magdalene (who is the first person Jesus meets after the crucifixion) to say these things to his brothers (who are his disciples) so that no one is confused by a miracle from God. Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross making everyone believe Jesus was dead on the cross and in this way God saved the life of Jesus.

1. The story of Jesus in agreement with the Tanakh, Gospel and Quran.

In Gospel of Luke 9:22 Jesus believed that he will die in the same way as Prophet Abraham believed his son would die.

Jesus like Abraham both only said what was revealed to them by God meaning God made both believe death was coming to test their faith in God.

After the crucifixion Jesus confirmed that he did not die by telling Mary Magdalene to tell my brothers (my disciples) that Jesus "has not yet ascended to the Father (God)” in Gospel of John 20:17 meaning Jesus is alive and no one was successful in killing him or crucifying him to death meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross in the same way God saved humans in the time of Jesus with sleep which made people think a living human was dead.

Gospel of Mark 5:39 "... The child is not dead but sleeping", 

Gospel of Matthew 9:24 "... For the maiden meaning the girl has not died but sleeps ..."

Gospel of Luke 8:52 "... She is not dead but sleeping."

Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 “…"Damsel meaning girl, wake up!" And her spirit returned, and she stood up at once, and he ordered that she be given something to eat. (This was proof that she was alive and not dead and that she was a physical body who could eat food and not a resurrected spiritual body that does not need food meaning she was a physical body who woke up after sleep and not a spiritual body which was resurrected after death as described by Paul in 1 Corinthians 15:35 and 1 Corinthians 15:44).

Note 1. In the Gospel after the crucifixion Jesus also asks for something to eat as proof he is alive and human and not a ghost.

Quran 39:42 Koran 39:42 God takes the souls at the time of their death and (also takes the souls of) those who have not died (but are alive) during their sleep (when God saved the life of Jesus Isa with sleep so that his body did not move making everyone believe that Jesus Isa was dead on the cross in Quran 4:157 by raising the soul of Jesus Isa to heaven and to God in Quran 4:158). He (God) keeps those (souls) for which He (God) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls to awaken the sleeping body) for a predetermined period of time (such as when God returned the soul of Jesus Isa three days after the crucifixion to wake up the sleeping body of Jesus Isa on the earth in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 when Jesus Isa delivered the message that Jesus Isa is not God by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross, after which they return to sleep again or die as in Quran 5:75 where Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa “use to eat food” meaning they both died 2000 years ago and Quran 3:144 where the “the messengers before Prophet Muhammad have died” meaning Jesus Isa is dead because Jesus Isa is the messenger before Prophet Muhammad. In Quran 5:117 Jesus died when he lived with the children of Israel 2000 years ago when he was raised by the angel of death). In this are signs (of God) for people who think. 

Note 1. God does not take the human body to heaven (Quran 39:42). 

Note 2. Only the human soul is raised to heaven (Quran 39:42). 

Note 3. The human body is only needed on the Earth (Quran 39:42). 

Note 4. The human body is not needed in heaven (Quran 39:42).

Note 5. The human soul is alive in heaven without a human body (Quran 39:42).

Note 6. What happened to Prophet Jesus Isa on the cross in Quran 4:157 and Quran 4:158 is explained in Quran 39:42.

Note 7. The Quran confirms what is in the Gospel Injil of Isa by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John that is with the Christians today as proof that no one can change the words of God and as proof of the truthfulness of the Quran.

2. Jesus taught the Tanakh Jewish scripture.

The Tanakh Jewish scripture which Jesus taught confirms that God will not accept human sacrifice meaning the story of Abraham and Jesus is the same story of God testing the faith of humans and confirming that God does not accept human sacrifice.

Leviticus 18:21 And you shall not give any of your seed (descendants) to set them apart to Molech (the god who accepts human baby sacrifice), …”

Leviticus 20:3 I also will set My face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people, because he has given of his seed (his baby) to Molech (the god who accepts human baby sacrifice) …”

Deuteronomy 12:31 You shall not do so to the LORD your God; for every abomination to the LORD (God), which He (God) hates, have they (the idol worshippers) done to their gods; for even their sons and their daughters do they (the idol worshippers) burn in the fire to their gods.

Note 1. God hates human sacrifice which God says is done by idol worshippers.

Note 2. God forbids human sacrifice which God says is done by idol worshippers.

Note 3. In a time when humans were being sacrificed to idol gods came the teaching that God will never accept the abomination of human sacrifice in the story of the vision dream of the sacrifice of the son of Abraham Ibrahim.

Deuteronomy 18:10 There shall not be found among you any one that makes his son or his daughter to pass through the fire (as a sacrifice) …”

Deuteronomy 24:16 The fathers shall not be put to death for the (sins of their) children, neither shall the children be put to death for the (sins of their) fathers; every man shall be put to death for his own sin. 

Hosea 6:6 For I (God) desire mercy, and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God rather than burnt-offerings. 

Jeremiah 7:22 I (God) did not speak to your fathers or commanded them concerning burnt-offerings or sacrifices in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt. 

Jeremiah 7:23 but this thing I (God) commanded them, saying: “Listen to My voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be My people; and walk in the way that I command you so that it may be well with you.”

Psalm 40:7 (in Jewish Scripture, Psalm 40:6 in Christian Bibles) Sacrifice and meal-offering You have not desired (to forgive my sins), my ear You have opened (to hear Your word with the story of ewe the female sheep and You forgave my sins because I repented), a burnt offering or a sin offering You did not request (to forgive my sins of murder and adultery because I repented from my heart).

Micah 6:7 Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams (as a sacrifice) and ten thousand rivers of oil? Shall I give my first-born (child as a sacrifice) for my wrongdoing, (my first-born who is) the fruit of my body for the sin (the wrongdoing) of my soul?'  

Micah 6:8 It has been told to you O man, what is good and what the LORD does require of you: only to do justice, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God (in Ezekiel 18:20 – 18:23 and Hosea 14:2 – 14:5 and 1 Kings 8:46 – 8:50 meaning the forgiveness of sin comes not from sacrifice but from asking God for forgiveness and replacing bad behaviour with good behaviour). 

3. The Quran confirms the first words of Jesus 3 days after the crucifixion which Jesus told Mary Magdalene to tell his brothers in Gospel of John 20:17. 

Quran 7:6 Koran 7:6 Surely (in the hereafter) We (God) shall question those (people) to whom (God’s message) was sent and We (God) shall question the messengers (of God). 

Quran 5:117 Koran 5:117 I (Prophet Jesus Isa) told them (the Jews in Judea today Israel and Palestine) only what You (God) commanded me, (saying), “Worship God, (God is) my Lord and your Lord." I was a witness (that I said these words) to them (three days after the crucifixion as proof that Jesus Isa was alive and living on the earth after the crucifixion meaning no one killed him on the cross and no one crucified him to death on the cross in Quran 4:157. God saved his life on the cross with sleep so that his body did not move and everyone though he was dead but he was only sleeping on the cross when his soul was raised to God in Quran 4:158. The soul of Jesus Isa was returned to the earth three days after the crucifixion to wake up his sleeping body in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117, Quran 19:36 and Quran 39:42 so that Jesus could teach the people that Jesus is not God) when I lived among them (the children of Israel in Judea, today in Israel and Palestine) and when You (God) raised me (my soul by the angel of death in Quran 39:42 and by comparing Quran 3:144 with Quran 5:75 and in Quran 5:117 and Quran 39:42 and confirmed in all the four Injil of Isa the Gospels of Jesus by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John that are with the Christians today as proof of the truthfulness of the Quran) You (God) watched over them (the Jews in Judea 2000 years ago today in Israel and Palestine and You God know everything the children of Israel said and did). You (God) are the Witness to all things.

Note 1. Jesus Isa in the hereafter will testify to God that he was raised by the angel of death only one time after he had lived among the children of Israel 2000 years ago in Judea today in Israel and Palestine.

Note 2. Jesus Isa in the hereafter will testify to God that after he was raised by the angel of death God watched over the children of Israel.

Note 3. Jesus Isa and God say nothing about Jesus Isa returning to this earth because Quran 33:40 prohibit any prophet from returning to this earth after the death of Prophet Muhammad.

Note 4. Jesus Isa and God say nothing about Jesus Isa returning to this earth because God through Jesus Isa have already warned humans 2000 years ago not to believe anyone who says Jesus Isa has returned to this earth in the Gospel of Mark 13:5 – 13:6 and 13:21 – 13:23.

Note 5. Jesus Isa and God say nothing about Jesus Isa returning to this earth because Quran 21:95 prohibit humans from returning to this earth after their death.

Quran 3:55 Koran 3:55 (Jesus Isa said on the cross “my God my God why have you forsaken me” as proof that Jesus Isa is human and that Jesus Isa is not God in the Injil of Isa by Mark and Matthew the Gospel of Mark 15:34 and the Gospel of Matthew 27:46. This was proof that Jesus Isa had faith in God because Jesus Isa called out for help from God and it was then that Jesus Isa passed the test of faith like Abraham Ibrahim and his son had passed the test of faith in a time before him. The plan of God was then explained to Jesus Isa to show that God does not forsake humans who call God for help) when God said "O Jesus Isa I (God) will take you (your soul in Quran 39:42 so that your body will sleep on the cross) and raise you (your soul) to Myself (God in Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42 making everyone believe you are dead on the cross in Quran 4:157 because your body will stop moving on the cross) and purify you (meaning separate your soul for three days) from those who disbelieve (you are a messenger of God), and I (God) will make those who follow you (by obeying the Gospel Injil that you taught them 2000 years ago) superior (in the hereafter) to those who disbelieve (you are a messenger of God) on the Day of Resurrection (in the hereafter on a new earth, a new ground, a new land when all humans will see that the message you delivered in the Gospel Injil is the truth). (After 3 days God returned the soul of Jesus Isa to wake up his sleeping body as proof that no one killed him on the cross and no one crucified him to death on the cross in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 when Jesus Isa woke up in the place of the dead where his body was placed after the crucifixion which is the time when Jesus Isa delivered the message that “God is my God and your God” meaning “God is my Father and your Father” meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord so that no one can confuse a miracle of God with a human messenger of God. No one teaches people that they are not God unless something amazing has happened which might result in confusion. Jesus Isa woke up three days after the crucifixion and continued living with his people in Judea and Galilee today in Palestine and Israel. This was something amazing and this is the reason Jesus Isa was teaching the people that Jesus Isa is not God. Jesus Isa taught his people that Jesus Isa is not God until his natural death in Quran 5:75 where Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa “use to eat food” meaning they both died 2000 years ago and Quran 3:144 where the “the messengers before Prophet Muhammad have died” meaning Jesus Isa is dead because Jesus Isa is the messenger before Prophet Muhammad). Then (on that Day of Resurrection and Judgement) to Me (God) is your return (when In Quran 7:6 God shall question the messengers of God and in Quran 5:117 Prophet Jesus Isa will testify to God on the Day of Judgement that Prophet Jesus Isa died only one time when he lived with the children of Israel 2000 years ago in Judea today in Israel and Palestine where he was raised only one time by the angel of death as confirmation of the truthfulness of both the Quran and the Gospel Injil) and I (God) will judge between you (humans and explain to humans) about what (religious matters) you were differing (among each other when some of you claimed Jesus Isa was not sent by God and others of you claimed Jesus Isa was God instead of believing Jesus Isa who said Jesus Isa is a human messenger of God in all the Injil of Isa the Gospel of Jesus by Mark, Matthew, Luke and John which are with humans today and proved it by his righteous deeds and righteous teachings as all the messengers of God had also done before him).

1-1. How could Jesus be talking if Jesus was dead? 

Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 “… they did not kill him (Jesus) nor crucify him (to death, they did not crucify Jesus to death), but it was made to appear so (to them, so they believed Jesus was dead on the cross but in fact Jesus was still alive on the cross) …” 

Three days after the crucifixion Jesus told Mary Magdalene to tell all the disciples that Jesus did not die on the cross in Gospel of John 20:17 “I have not yet ascended to the Father” meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with a miracle which made people think Jesus was dead on the cross in the same way God made people believe a sleeping person was dead in Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24 and Gospel of Luke 8:52.

The soul of every human ascends to God during sleep and when they die (Quran 39:42).

When Jesus says “I (Jesus) have not yet ascended to the Father (God)” Jesus is not talking about sleep because every human ascends to God every night during sleep therefore the meaning is Jesus has not yet died meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with sleep (Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24, Gospel of Luke 8:52, Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42) meaning Jesus did not die on the cross with death but was saved on the cross with sleep which looked like Jesus was dead and in this way God saved the life of Jesus meaning no one killed Jesus (Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 and Quran 39:42) meaning no one crucified Jesus to death (Quran 4:157) meaning Jesus was not sacrificed but was saved from death with sleep in Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42 for the same reason God saved the son of Abraham from death in a test of the faith in God of Abraham and Jesus.

When Jesus says "I (Jesus) am ascending to my Father (God) and your Father (God)" it means Jesus will die like every human dies meaning Jesus died a natural death at the end of his life 2000 years ago (Quran 3:144 and Quran 5:75) as proof Jesus is human and as proof Jesus is not God.

Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus says to her (Mary Magdalene), "Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father (God); but go to my brothers (my disciples), and tell them: 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father; to my God and your God.'"

Note 1. After the crucifixion Jesus says do not hold on to me to see if I am really alive, I have not yet ascended to my Father meaning I am not yet dead meaning I am really alive meaning I am not a ghost.

Quran 39:42 Koran 39:42 God takes the souls at the time of their death and (also takes the souls of) those who have not died (but are alive) during their sleep (when God saved the life of Jesus Isa with sleep so that his body did not move making everyone believe that Jesus Isa was dead on the cross in Quran 4:157 by raising the soul of Jesus Isa to heaven and to God in Quran 4:158). He (God) keeps those (souls) for which He (God) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls to awaken the sleeping body) for a predetermined period of time (such as when God returned the soul of Jesus Isa three days after the crucifixion to wake up the sleeping body of Jesus Isa on the earth in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 when Jesus Isa delivered the message that Jesus Isa is not God by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross, after which they return to sleep again or die as in Quran 5:75 where Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa “use to eat food” meaning they both died 2000 years ago and Quran 3:144 where the “the messengers before Prophet Muhammad have died” meaning Jesus Isa is dead because Jesus Isa is the messenger before Prophet Muhammad. In Quran 5:117 Jesus died when he lived with the children of Israel 2000 years ago when he was raised by the angel of death). In this are signs (of God) for people who think.

(Note 1. The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross.

(Note 2. When a human sleeps their soul is raised to heaven and to God.

(Note 3. When God returns the soul to a sleeping human their body will wake up.

(Note 4. Three days later Jesus was awake.

(Note 5. God saved Jesus from death.

The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross and the soul of Jesus was taken to heaven and to God then the soul of Jesus was returned three days later to Earth to awaken the sleeping body of Jesus.

(Note 6. Just as God twice protected Jesus from being stoned to death in the Gospel of John 8:59 and 10:31 so also God protected Jesus from being killed or crucified to death.

(Note 7. Prophet Muhammad confirms he is the prophet and messenger after Jesus by confirming that the Gospel correctly describes what the people saw which appeared to be the killing of Jesus and revealing in the Quran how God saved Jesus.

(Note 1. What is sleep?

When a human body sleeps the soul is raised to heaven and to God and that soul will return to awaken the sleeping body on the Earth.

The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross and the soul of Jesus was raised to heaven and to God.

God returned the soul to the sleeping body of Jesus 3 days later and the body of Jesus woke up and Jesus was seen alive.

(Note 2. What is death?

When a human body dies the soul is raised to heaven and to God and that soul will not return to the Earth.

After death the soul will be given a new physical body that can feel reward or punishment on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement.

When Jesus died a natural death God raised the soul of Jesus to heaven and to God and this death is confirmed by Jesus who said do not believe anyone who says that Jesus will return to this Earth (in Gospel of Mark 13;5, 13:6, 13:21, 13:22, 13:23) because the second coming of Jesus will be on the Day of Resurrection which is the second coming of every human including Jesus (in Gospel of Mark 13:27 and 14:62) 

See Gospel of Mark 13;5, 13:6, 13:21, 13:22, 13:23, 13:26, 13:27 and 14:62 comment.

See Gospel of Matthew 24:29 and 24:30 comment.

See Gospel of Luke 21:25, 21:25 and 21:7 comment.

See Jesus said another comforter from God will come after him. See part B at the end of Gospel of John chapter 21. 

(Note 3. How do we know that Prophet Muhammad is not one of the false prophets that Jesus warned would falsely claim that Jesus will return to this Earth?

Answer 1: There is nothing in the Torah or Gospel or Quran about Jesus returning to this Earth.

Answer 2: Prophet Muhammad is not one of the false prophets who will falsely claim that Jesus will return to this Earth because there is nothing in the Quran about Jesus returning to this Earth.

2. Where is proof that God protected Jesus from death? 

Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus says to her (Mary Magdalene), "Do not cleave (hold on) to me (Jesus, with surprise but believe that I am alive, I am not a ghost), for I (Jesus, meaning the soul of Jesus) have not yet ascended to the Father (God, meaning I am not yet dead because my body was only sleeping and now I have awoken) …”

(Note 1. Jesus said I am not yet dead.

3. What will happened at the end of the life of Jesus?

Quran 4:158 Koran 4:158 God raised him (the soul of Prophet Jesus Isa) up to Himself (God, to protect the life of Jesus Isa as explained in Quran 39:42 where God raises the soul up to Himself causing the human body on the earth to sleep and make everyone think Jesus Isa was dead because his body was not moving in Quran 4:157. God returned the soul of Jesus Isa causing his human body on the earth to wake up three days later as proof that no one killed Jesus Isa on the cross and no one crucified him to death on the cross. This is confirmed because Jesus Isa is seen alive three days after the crucifixion delivering the message that he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord). God is all powerful (able to do all things) and He (God) is all wise. (2000 years ago God saved the life of humans with sleep so that their body did not move making everyone think they were dead in the Injil Gospel of Mark 5:39 "... The child is not dead but sleeping", Gospel of Matthew 9:24 "... For the maiden meaning the girl has not died but sleeps ..." and the Gospel of Luke 8:52 "... She is not dead but sleeping". To prepare to test the faith of Prophet Jesus Isa by the threat of death by crucifixion God through the Holy Spirit removed from the mind of Prophet Jesus Isa the earlier events where God had saved people with sleep that looked like death by revealing the story of Lazarus in the Injil Gospel of John 11:11 – 11:14 where the Holy Spirit reveals to Jesus that sleep for Lazarus means Lazarus is dead. This was done so that Prophet Jesus Isa will believe he will die in the same way as Prophet Abraham Ibrahim believed his son would die. Prophet Jesus Isa passed the test of faith in God and God saved Prophet Jesus Isa like God saved the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim so that Prophet Jesus Isa could continue his life on the earth when God returned the soul from heaven to wake up the sleeping body on the earth as God had done before in the Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 “…"Damsel meaning girl, wake up!" And her spirit returned, and she stood up at once, and he ordered that she be given something to eat. This was proof that she was alive and not dead. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa was alive on the earth as proof that no one killed him on the cross or crucified him to death. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa taught the people that he is not God until his natural death 2000 years ago in Quran 5:75, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:117 and in all the four Gospels Injil. It is in the life of Prophet Jesus Isa after the crucifixion that Jesus told the people that he is not God so that no one will be able to claim in the hereafter that Prophet Jesus Isa did not tell them he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36).

Note 1. God saved Jesus Isa from death on the cross in Quran 4:157 and 4:158 so that Jesus Isa could continue his life and then die 2000 years ago like every human before him and after him has died in Quran 5:75 and 3:144. The natural death of Jesus Isa 2000 years ago is proof to the people in his time that Jesus Isa is human like every other human and he is not God or an equal partner with God.   

In Quran 5:75 every human messenger of God before Prophet Jesus Isa is dead.

Quran 5:75 Koran 5:75 The Messiah (Jesus Isa), son of Mary (Maryam), was no more than a (human) messenger (of God) and (all the human) messengers (of God) before him (Prophet Jesus Isa) have passed away (meaning died) … they (Jesus Isa and Mary Maryam) both used to eat food (meaning Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa died a natural death 2000 years ago because both “used to eat food” meaning they are dead because they do not eat food today  ..." 

Note 1. In Quran 5:75 "they used to eat food" means Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa are dead. 

In Quran 3:144 every human messenger of God before Prophet Muhammad is dead.

The messenger before Prophet Muhammad is Prophet Jesus Isa meaning Prophet Jesus Isa is dead.

Quran 3:144 Koran 3:144 Prophet Muhammad is no more than a (human) messenger (of God) and (all the human) messengers (of God) before him (Prophet Muhammad) have passed away (meaning died) ….”

Note 1. The messenger before Prophet Muhammad is Prophet Jesus Isa meaning Prophet Jesus Isa is dead..

(Note 1. Jesus is a human.

Jesus is human because the soul of every human is raised to Heaven and to God by the Angel of Death and the soul of every human is under the care of God who is the creator of every soul and the carer of every soul.

(Note 2. The Earth is the resting place for the human body.

The human body is only needed on the Earth because the human body is designed for life on the Earth.

(Note 3. Heaven is the resting place for the human soul.

Heaven is made for the human soul because the human soul is designed for life in Heaven.

(Note 4. The human body dies on the Earth but the human soul lives forever in heaven.

(Note 5. The soul on the Day of Resurrection.

On the Day of Resurrection the human soul will be given a new physical body that can feel reward or punishment.

(Note 6. The natural deaths of Moses and Elijah and Jesus.

After the natural deaths of Moses and Elijah and Jesus their souls were raised to Heaven and to God and their bodies were hidden in the Earth to prevent human idol worship but some Christians later made images of Jesus and began to pray to Jesus instead of praying to God who is the creator of Jesus so God inspired Prophet Muhammad to correct the confusion between God and Jesus.

4. Why is Jesus not God?

God the Father is not in a biological relationship with Jesus the son (where son means servant).

Jesus said that God is not only his Father but God is the Father of every human.

This means that every human is the son of God meaning the servant of God (the slave of God).

Gospel of John 20:17 “… 'I (Jesus, meaning the soul of Jesus) am ascending to my Father (who is the creator of every creation) and your Father (who is the same one creator of every creation); to my God and your God (because at the end of every human life God raises the soul to heaven and to God which is proof that I am a human like you).'"

(Note 1. Jesus said that God is not only his Father but God is the Father of every human.

(Note 2. The God that created Jesus is the same God that created every human.

(Note 3. The God that created Jesus is the same God that created every creation.

(Note 4. Every soul is created by God and ascends to Heaven and to God.

4-1. What does “God the Father” mean?

When Jesus describes God as the Father of every human this is not a real biological father but it is a title to show that every creation must obey God like a son or daughter or child obeys their father.

4-2. What does “Jesus the Son” mean?

When Jesus is called the Son this is not a real biological Son but it is a title to show that Jesus obeys God like a son or daughter or child obeys their father.

4-3 Jesus said Jesus is not God.

Gospel of Matthew 23:9 (Jesus said) and call no one on earth (including Jesus) your father (God), because there is only one father (God) for you, the heavenly one …”

(Note 1. Jesus said that God is not only his Father but God is the Father of every human.

(Note 2. No one on the Earth is God because everything on the Earth is created by God.

God is not in one place however to make clear that Jesus is not God the expression “God in heaven” is used to show that Jesus who is on the Earth is not God).

4-4. Jesus confirmed that Jesus is not God.

Jesus confirmed that Jesus is not God because the soul of Jesus will ascend to God at the end of the natural life of Jesus just as the soul of every human ascends to God at the end of their life on the Earth.

Gospel of John 20:17 “… 'I (Jesus, meaning the soul of Jesus) am ascending to my Father (who is the creator of every creation) and your Father (who is the same one creator of every creation); to my God and your God (because at the end of every human life God raises the soul to heaven and to God which is proof that I am a human like you).'"

(Note 1. Jesus said that God is not only his Father but God is the Father of every human.

(Note 2. The human body is not needed in Heaven.

(Note 3. Heaven is the home of the human soul.

(Note 4. The human body is created for life on the Earth.

(Note 5. The souls of prophets such as Moses and Elijah and Jesus ascended to Heaven and to God but their human bodies were buried and hidden in the Earth to prevent the adoption of human idol worship. 

Gospel of John 20:18 Mary goes, announcing to the disciples, "I have seen the Lord," and also announcing those things he had said to her.

Comment:

1. Explain Gospel of John 20:18.

Gospel of John 20:18 Mary (Mary Magdalene) goes, announcing to the disciples, "I (Mary Magdalene) have seen the Lord (Jesus the master and teacher)," and also announcing those things he (Jesus) had said to her (Mary Magdalene).

1-1. What things did Jesus say to Mary Magdalene?

 See Gospel of John 20:17 comments.

Jesus appears to the ten apostles.

Gospel of John 20:19 Then, when it was evening on that first day of the week, with the doors locked where the disciples were, because of the fear of the Jews, Jesus appeared, and stood in their midst. And he says to them, "Peace be with you."

Comment:

1. Explain Gospel of John 20:19.

Gospel of John 20:19 Then, when it was evening on that first day of the week, with the doors locked where the (Jewish) disciples (of Jesus) were, because of the fear of the (other) Jews (who opposed Jesus), Jesus appeared, and stood in their midst. And he (Jesus) says to them, "Peace be with you."

1-1. How could Jesus appear inside a house with locked doors?

God made Jesus appear inside a house with locked doors just as God made Jesus appear to be dead on the cross.

Gospel of John 20:19 “… with the doors locked where the (Jewish) disciples (of Jesus) were, because of the fear of the (other) Jews (who opposed Jesus), Jesus appeared, and stood in their midst …”

Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 “… they did not kill him (Jesus) nor crucify him (to death, they did not crucify Jesus to death), but it was made to appear so (to them, so they believed Jesus was dead on the cross but in fact Jesus was still alive on the cross) …” 

Three days after the crucifixion Jesus told Mary Magdalene to tell all the disciples that Jesus did not die on the cross in Gospel of John 20:17 “I have not yet ascended to the Father” meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with a miracle which made people think Jesus was dead on the cross in the same way God made people believe a sleeping person was dead in Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24 and Gospel of Luke 8:52.

The soul of every human ascends to God during sleep and when they die (Quran 39:42).

When Jesus says “I (Jesus) have not yet ascended to the Father (God)” Jesus is not talking about sleep because every human ascends to God every night during sleep therefore the meaning is Jesus has not yet died meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with sleep (Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24, Gospel of Luke 8:52, Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42) meaning Jesus did not die on the cross with death but was saved on the cross with sleep which looked like Jesus was dead and in this way God saved the life of Jesus meaning no one killed Jesus (Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 and Quran 39:42) meaning no one crucified Jesus to death (Quran 4:157) meaning Jesus was not sacrificed but was saved from death with sleep in Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42 for the same reason God saved the son of Abraham from death in a test of the faith in God of Abraham and Jesus.

When Jesus says "I (Jesus) am ascending to my Father (God) and your Father (God)" it means Jesus will die like every human dies meaning Jesus died a natural death at the end of his life 2000 years ago (Quran 3:144 and Quran 5:75) as proof Jesus is human and as proof Jesus is not God.

Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus says to her (Mary Magdalene), "Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father (God); but go to my brothers (my disciples), and tell them: 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father; to my God and your God.'"

Note 1. After the crucifixion Jesus says do not hold on to me to see if I am really alive, I have not yet ascended to my Father meaning I am not yet dead meaning I am really alive meaning I am not a ghost.

Quran 39:42 Koran 39:42 God takes the souls at the time of their death and (also takes the souls of) those who have not died (but are alive) during their sleep (when God saved the life of Jesus Isa with sleep so that his body did not move making everyone believe that Jesus Isa was dead on the cross in Quran 4:157 by raising the soul of Jesus Isa to heaven and to God in Quran 4:158). He (God) keeps those (souls) for which He (God) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls to awaken the sleeping body) for a predetermined period of time (such as when God returned the soul of Jesus Isa three days after the crucifixion to wake up the sleeping body of Jesus Isa on the earth in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 when Jesus Isa delivered the message that Jesus Isa is not God by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross, after which they return to sleep again or die as in Quran 5:75 where Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa “use to eat food” meaning they both died 2000 years ago and Quran 3:144 where the “the messengers before Prophet Muhammad have died” meaning Jesus Isa is dead because Jesus Isa is the messenger before Prophet Muhammad. In Quran 5:117 Jesus died when he lived with the children of Israel 2000 years ago when he was raised by the angel of death). In this are signs (of God) for people who think.

Note 1. The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross.

Note 2. When a human sleeps their soul is raised to heaven and to God.

Note 3. When God returns the soul to a sleeping human their body will wake up.

Note 4. Three days later Jesus was awake.

Note 5. God saved Jesus from death.

The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross and the soul of Jesus was taken to heaven and to God then the soul of Jesus was returned three days later to Earth to awaken the sleeping body of Jesus.

Note 6. Just as God twice protected Jesus from being stoned to death in the Gospel of John 8:59 and 10:31 so also God protected Jesus from being killed or crucified to death.

Note 7. Prophet Muhammad confirms he is the prophet and messenger after Jesus by confirming that the Gospel correctly describes what the people saw which appeared to be the killing of Jesus and revealing in the Quran how God saved Jesus.

(Note 1. What is sleep?

When a human body sleeps the soul is raised to heaven and to God and that soul will return to awaken the sleeping body on the Earth.

The body of Jesus fainted into sleep on the cross and the soul of Jesus was raised to heaven and to God.

God returned the soul to the sleeping body of Jesus 3 days later and the body of Jesus woke up and Jesus was seen alive.

(Note 2. What is death?

When a human body dies the soul is raised to heaven and to God and that soul will not return to the Earth.

After death the soul will be given a new physical body that can feel reward or punishment on the Day of Resurrection and Judgement.

When Jesus died a natural death God raised the soul of Jesus to heaven and to God and this death is confirmed by Jesus who said do not believe anyone who says that Jesus will return to this Earth (in Gospel of Mark 13;5, 13:6, 13:21, 13:22, 13:23) because the second coming of Jesus will be on the Day of Resurrection which is the second coming of every human including Jesus (in Gospel of Mark 13:27 and 14:62)

(Note 3. How do we know that Prophet Muhammad is not one of the false prophets that Jesus warned would falsely claim that Jesus will return to this Earth?

Answer 1: There is nothing in the Torah or Gospel or Quran about Jesus returning to this Earth.

Answer 2: Prophet Muhammad is not one of the false prophets who will falsely claim that Jesus will return to this Earth because there is nothing in the Quran about Jesus returning to this Earth.

1-2. How could Jesus hide himself from the people who were standing next to him who were ready to stone him to death at the second Temple of God in Jerusalem Al-Quds?

God made Jesus appear to be hidden from those who were standing next to Jesus and were ready to stone Jesus to death just as God made Jesus appear to be dead on the cross.

Gospel of John 8:59 (However instead of waiting for Jesus to finish talking or waiting for people to ask more questions about what Jesus had said some people saw an opportunity to kill Jesus and) then they picked up stones to throw at him (Jesus). But Jesus hid himself, and went forth from the temple (the second House of God on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine).

Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 “… they did not kill him (Jesus) nor crucify him (to death, they did not crucify Jesus to death), but it was made to appear so (to them, so they believed Jesus was dead on the cross but in fact Jesus was still alive on the cross) …” 

(Note 1. See Quran 6:60 comment and Quran 39:42 comment in 1-1 above.

Gospel of John 20:20 And when he had said this, he showed them both his hands and his side. Therefore the disciples rejoiced, seeing the Lord.

Comment:

1. Explain Gospel of John 20:20.

Gospel of John 20:20 And when he (Jesus) had said this, he (Jesus) showed them both his hands (and they saw the marks were the Roman soldiers had nailed the hands of Jesus to the cross) and his side (and they saw the marks were a Roman soldier had put a spear in the side of Jesus when the body of Jesus was sleeping on the cross). Therefore the disciples rejoiced, seeing the Lord (Master, teacher).

1-1. How did Jesus prove that Jesus was not killed and did not die on the cross? 

Gospel of John 20:19 And when he (Jesus) had said this, he (Jesus) showed them both his hands (and they saw the marks were the Roman soldiers had nailed the hands of Jesus to the cross) and his side (and they saw the marks were a Roman soldier had put a spear in the side of Jesus when the body of Jesus was sleeping on the cross). Therefore the disciples rejoiced, seeing the Lord (Master, teacher).

The soul of every human ascends to God during sleep and when they die (Quran 39:42).

When Jesus says “I (Jesus) have not yet ascended to the Father (God)” Jesus is not talking about sleep because every human ascends to God every night during sleep therefore the meaning is Jesus has not yet died meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with sleep (Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24, Gospel of Luke 8:52, Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42) meaning Jesus did not die on the cross with death but was saved on the cross with sleep which looked like Jesus was dead and in this way God saved the life of Jesus meaning no one killed Jesus (Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 and Quran 39:42) meaning no one crucified Jesus to death (Quran 4:157) meaning Jesus was not sacrificed but was saved from death with sleep in Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42 for the same reason God saved the son of Abraham from death in a test of the faith in God of Abraham and Jesus.

When Jesus says "I (Jesus) am ascending to my Father (God) and your Father (God)" it means Jesus will die like every human dies meaning Jesus died a natural death at the end of his life 2000 years ago (Quran 3:144 and Quran 5:75) as proof Jesus is human and as proof Jesus is not God.

Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus says to her (Mary Magdalene), "Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father (God); but go to my brothers (my disciples), and tell them: 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father; to my God and your God.'"

Note 1. After the crucifixion Jesus says do not hold on to me to see if I am really alive, I have not yet ascended to my Father meaning I am not yet dead meaning I am really alive meaning I am not a ghost.

As the Father (God) has sent me (Jesus as the prophet and messenger of God), so also I (Jesus) send you (the disciples of Jesus to continue the work of Jesus because God has ordered Jesus through the Holy Spirit to give this command to the disciples of Jesus)."

(Note 1. Jesus is not God because just as God sent Jesus as a prophet and messenger of God to the people in the same way Jesus sent his disciples to continue to bring knowledge of God to the people.

(Note 2. No one who is sent can be God because God is the creator and every creation is the servant of God.

(Note 3. The disciples of Jesus call Jesus “Lord” meaning “master” because Jesus is their teacher.

See Gospel of John 20:13 comment.

Gospel of John 20:13 And they (the two angel of God) say to her (Mary Magdalene), "Woman, why are you weeping?" She (Mary Magdalene) says to them, "They (some people) have taken my Lord (Master’s body, teacher’s body) away, and I (Mary Magdalene) don't know where they have put him (the body of Jesus)."

(Note 1. When Jesus was thought to be dead Jesus was called Lord meaning master, teacher.

(Note 2. No one in the time of Jesus thought that Jesus was God.

Gospel of John 20:22 And having said this, he blew, and says to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit.

Comment:

Explain Gospel of John 20:22.

Gospel of John 20:22 And having said this, he (Jesus who is the messenger from God) blew, and says to them, "Receive the (guidance of the) Holy Spirit (angel Gabriel so that your heart may be correctly guided as God has willed).

Gospel of Luke 1:19 “… “I am Gabriel, one who stands in the presence of God and I have been sent to speak to you …”

(Note 1. This shows how God reveals himself through the Holy Spirit.

Quran 2:97 Koran 2:97 Say (Prophet Muhammad, to the people), who is against (Angel) Gabriel? because it is he (Angel Gabriel) who has revealed this (Scripture, the Quran) to your heart (Prophet Muhammad) by God’s permission, confirming what was revealed before it (in the Gospel and in the Torah), and as a guidance and good news for those who believe.

(Note 1. The Holy Spirit is angel Gabriel.

Quran 2:253 Koran 2:253 “… To (messenger, prophet and messiah) Jesus the son of Mary We (God through the Holy Spirit) gave signs (of his truthfulness) and strengthened him (Jesus) with (guidance through) the Holy Spirit (Angel Gabriel, the Holy Ghost) …”

Gospel of John 20:23 Whose ever sins you forgive, they are forgiven them (sins by God); whose ever you retain, they are retained."

Comment:

Explain Gospel of John 20:23.

Gospel of John 20:23 Whose ever sins you forgive (as God will guide you through the Holy Spirit to forgive), they are forgiven them (sins by God); whose ever (sin) you retain (as God will guide you through the Holy Spirit not to forgive), they (those sins) are retained (not forgiven by God)."

(Note 1. Why are the disciples of Jesus not God?

The disciples of Jesus are the servants of God.

When the disciples forgive sin it is not the disciples who are forgiving the sin but it is God because God has told the disciples through the Holy Spirit what they must say.

(Note 2. Why is Jesus not God?

Jesus is the servant of God.

When Jesus forgives sin it is not Jesus who is forgiving the sin but it is God because God has told Jesus through the Holy Spirit what Jesus must say.

Gospel of John 20:26 And after eight days, his disciples again were inside, and Thomas (the Twin) with them. Jesus is appearing, even though the doors were locked. And he (Jesus) stood in the midst (among them), and said, "Peace be with you."

1-1. How could Jesus appear inside a house with locked doors?

God made Jesus appear inside a house with locked doors just as God made Jesus appear to be dead on the cross.

Gospel of John 20:26 And after eight days, his disciples again were inside, and Thomas (the Twin) with them. Jesus is appearing, even though the doors were locked. And he (Jesus) stood in the midst (among them), and said, "Peace be with you."

Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 “… they did not kill him (Jesus) nor crucify him (to death, they did not crucify Jesus to death), but it was made to appear so (to them, so they believed Jesus was dead on the cross but in fact Jesus was still alive on the cross) …” 

Three days after the crucifixion Jesus told Mary Magdalene to tell all the disciples that Jesus did not die on the cross in Gospel of John 20:17 “I have not yet ascended to the Father” meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with a miracle which made people think Jesus was dead on the cross in the same way God made people believe a sleeping person was dead in Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24 and Gospel of Luke 8:52.

The soul of every human ascends to God during sleep and when they die (Quran 39:42).

When Jesus says “I (Jesus) have not yet ascended to the Father (God)” Jesus is not talking about sleep because every human ascends to God every night during sleep therefore the meaning is Jesus has not yet died meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross with sleep (Gospel of Mark 5:39, Gospel of Matthew 9:24, Gospel of Luke 8:52, Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42) meaning Jesus did not die on the cross with death but was saved on the cross with sleep which looked like Jesus was dead and in this way God saved the life of Jesus meaning no one killed Jesus (Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 and Quran 39:42) meaning no one crucified Jesus to death (Quran 4:157) meaning Jesus was not sacrificed but was saved from death with sleep in Quran 4:158 and Quran 39:42 for the same reason God saved the son of Abraham from death in a test of the faith in God of Abraham and Jesus.

When Jesus says "I (Jesus) am ascending to my Father (God) and your Father (God)" it means Jesus will die like every human dies meaning Jesus died a natural death at the end of his life 2000 years ago (Quran 3:144 and Quran 5:75) as proof Jesus is human and as proof Jesus is not God.

Gospel of John 20:17 Jesus says to her (Mary Magdalene), "Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father (God); but go to my brothers (my disciples), and tell them: 'I am ascending to my Father and your Father; to my God and your God.'"

Note 1. After the crucifixion Jesus says do not hold on to me to see if I am really alive, I have not yet ascended to my Father meaning I am not yet dead meaning I am really alive meaning I am not a ghost.

He (God) keeps those (souls) for which He (God) had decreed death and sends the rest (of the souls to awaken the sleeping body) for a predetermined period of time (such as when God returned the soul of Jesus Isa three days after the crucifixion to wake up the sleeping body of Jesus Isa on the earth in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 when Jesus Isa delivered the message that Jesus Isa is not God by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross, after which they return to sleep again or die as in Quran 5:75 where Mary Maryam and Jesus Isa “use to eat food” meaning they both died 2000 years ago and Quran 3:144 where the “the messengers before Prophet Muhammad have died” meaning Jesus Isa is dead because Jesus Isa is the messenger before Prophet Muhammad.

When Jesus died a natural death God raised the soul of Jesus to heaven and to God and this death is confirmed by Jesus who said do not believe anyone who says that Jesus will return to this Earth (in Gospel of Mark 13;5, 13:6, 13:21, 13:22, 13:23) because the second coming of Jesus will be on the Day of Resurrection which is the second coming of every human including Jesus (in Gospel of Mark 13:27 and 14:62) 

See Gospel of Mark 13;5, 13:6, 13:21, 13:22, 13:23, 13:26, 13:27 and 14:62 comment.

See Gospel of Matthew 24:29 and 24:30 comment.

See Gospel of Luke 21:25, 21:25 and 21:7 comment.

See Jesus said another comforter from God will come after him. See part B at the end of Gospel of John chapter 21. 

(Note 3. How do we know that Prophet Muhammad is not one of the false prophets that Jesus warned would falsely claim that Jesus will return to this Earth?

Answer 1: There is nothing in the Torah or Gospel or Quran about Jesus returning to this Earth.

Answer 2: Prophet Muhammad is not one of the false prophets who will falsely claim that Jesus will return to this Earth because there is nothing in the Quran about Jesus returning to this Earth.

1-2. How could Jesus hide himself from the people who were standing next to him who were ready to stone him to death at the second Temple of God in Jerusalem Al-Quds?

God made Jesus appear to be hidden from those who were standing next to Jesus and were ready to stone Jesus to death just as God made Jesus appear to be dead on the cross.

Gospel of John 8:59 (However instead of waiting for Jesus to finish talking or waiting for people to ask more questions about what Jesus had said some people saw an opportunity to kill Jesus and) then they picked up stones to throw at him (Jesus). But Jesus hid himself, and went forth from the temple (the second House of God on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, Al-Quds in Judea today in Israel and Palestine).

Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 “… they did not kill him (Jesus) nor crucify him (to death, they did not crucify Jesus to death), but it was made to appear so (to them, so they believed Jesus was dead on the cross but in fact Jesus was still alive on the cross) …” 

(Note 1. See Quran 6:60 comment and Quran 39:42 comment in 1-1 above.

Gospel of John 20:27 Thereupon he says to Thomas, "Bring your finger here, and see my hands, and bring your hand and put it into my side, and do not be unbelieving, but believing."

Comment:

1. Explain Gospel of John 20:27.

Gospel of John 20:27 Thereupon he (Jesus) says to Thomas, "Bring your finger here, and see my hands (where the nails made their mark), and bring your hand and put it into my side (where the spear made a mark), and do not be unbelieving, but (be) believing (that I Jesus am alive)."

2. Jesus shows he was not killed or crucified to death meaning God saved the life of Jesus on the cross. 

Gospel of John 20:27 Thereupon he (Jesus) says to Thomas, "Bring your finger here, and see my hands (where the nails made their mark), and bring your hand and put it into my side (where the spear made a mark), and do not be unbelieving, but (be) believing (that I Jesus am alive)." 

Note 1. Jesus shows he was not killed or crucified to death because with your eyes and ears and touch you know that Jesus is alive meaning God saved the life of Jesus with sleep when Jesus was on the cross. 

In the time of Jesus God saved the life of humans with sleep so that their body did not move making everyone think they were dead.

Gospel of Mark 5:39 "... The child is not dead but sleeping", 

Gospel of Matthew 9:24 "... For the maiden meaning the girl has not died but sleeps ..." 

Gospel of Luke 8:52 "... She is not dead but sleeping"

Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 “…"Damsel meaning girl, wake up!" And her spirit returned,

Note 2. Jesus did not wake up when the spear pierced the side of his body because the body of Jesus was sleeping on the cross but the soul of Jesus was in Heaven under the care of God so all the people who saw the crucifixion were now certain that Jesus was dead on the cross but in fact the body of Jesus was still alive on the cross because God protected the body and the soul of Jesus with a three day sleep.

Gospel of John 10:18 No one takes it (my life) from me (Jesus); I lay it down (my life) of myself (voluntarily as God has ordered Jesus to do). I (Jesus) have authority (from God) to lay it down (on the cross where humans shall try to kill Jesus through crucifixion) and I (Jesus) have authority (by the order of God) to take it (my life) up again (as proof that no one killed Jesus); this order I have received from my Father (God).

(Note 1. In the Gospel Jesus said no one takes my life from me because Jesus is obeying the orders of God.

(Note 2. The Gospel confirms no one killed Jesus because Jesus was alive three days later.

Quran 4:157 Koran 4:157 And they (some of the Jews of Yathrib in Arabia later Medina Arabia today Madinah Saudi Arabia) said (showing their pride and their disbelief by threatening and mocking the messenger Prophet Muhammad and his followers by boasting), "We killed messiah Jesus Isa, the son of Mary Maryam, the messenger of God," but (in fact) they did not kill him (on the cross) nor crucify him (to death on the cross), but it was made to appear so to them (so they believed he was dead on the cross because his body was not moving but in fact he was still alive and sleeping on the cross as explained in Quran 4:158 and 39:42) and those (Jews of Yathrib Arabia) who differ in this (in what happened to Prophet Jesus Isa on the cross) are full of doubts with no (certain) knowledge so they (the Jews of Yathrib) follow only conjecture (assumptions, speculation, guess). It is certain that they (the Jews) did not kill him (because God protected Prophet Jesus Isa from the death of crucifixion in 607 BH 33 CE 33 AD on Friday 3 April 33 in Jerusalem Al-Quds Yerussalem Yerushalayim in Judea today in Israel and Palestine and this is confirmed in the Gospel Injil where Jesus Isa is seen alive three days after the crucifixion teaching that he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36 by saying God is my God and your God meaning God is my Father and your Father meaning God is my Creator and your Creator meaning God is my Master and your Master meaning God is my Lord and your Lord as proof that no one had killed him on the cross or crucified him to death on the cross. 2000 years ago God saved the life of humans with sleep so that their body did not move making everyone think they were dead in the Injil Gospel of Mark 5:39 "... The child is not dead but sleeping", Gospel of Matthew 9:24 "... For the maiden meaning the girl has not died but sleeps ..." and the Gospel of Luke 8:52 "... She is not dead but sleeping". To prepare to test the faith of Prophet Jesus Isa by the threat of death by crucifixion God through the Holy Spirit removed from the mind of Prophet Jesus Isa the earlier events where God had saved people with sleep that looked like death by revealing the story of Lazarus in the Injil Gospel of John 11:11 – 11:14 where the Holy Spirit reveals to Jesus that sleep for Lazarus means Lazarus is dead. This was done so that Prophet Jesus Isa will believe he will die in the same way as Prophet Abraham Ibrahim believed his son would die. Prophet Jesus Isa passed the test of faith in God and God saved Prophet Jesus Isa like God saved the son of Prophet Abraham Ibrahim so that Prophet Jesus Isa could continue his life on the earth when God returned the soul from heaven to wake up the sleeping body on the earth as God had done before in the Gospel of Luke 8:54 – 8:55 “…"Damsel meaning girl, wake up!" And her spirit returned, and she stood up at once, and he ordered that she be given something to eat. This was proof that she was alive and not dead. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa was alive on the earth as proof that no one killed him on the cross or crucified him to death. After the crucifixion Prophet Jesus Isa taught the people that he is not God until his natural death 2000 years ago in Quran 5:75, Quran 3:144, Quran 5:117 and in all the four Gospels Injil. It is in the life of Prophet Jesus Isa after the crucifixion that Jesus told the people that he is not God so that no one will be able to claim in the hereafter that Prophet Jesus Isa did not tell them he is not God in the Gospel of John 20:17, Quran 5:72, Quran 5:117 and Quran 19:36).
