The seventh century chronicles. 5. Who is Mehmet in the Quran. The origin of the name Mehmet in Hebrew means" the desired one" (ps. 68:16, Pro. 12:12).  In Song of Salomon(16:5), it is referring to the Messiah; all together lovely.  Both Jews and Christian say that the name refers to the Messiah. Since the Messiah is Jewish it can not refer to Mohammad the Arabian prophet.

Al Fadi and Anthony Rogers continue their discussion of Isaiah 53.  In this session they discuss how Jesus and His disciples talked about the fulfillment of Isaiah 53; 1. In Luke 24 after Jesus's resurrection ; he is explaining to the two disciples on the road to Emmaus  how the Christ will suffer, die and come back to life.  2. All four accounts of the gospel mention Isaiah 40 a voice crying out in the wilderness . 3. Jesus told his disciples that he will go to Jerusalem to die.  4. Another example was in Acts 8 where Philip is explaining the suffering Messiah to the Ethiopian who was reading Isaiah 53.

Al Fadi and Anthony Rogers continue in Isaiah 53 about the reason for the death of the righteous servant.  It is atone for the guilt of the people (53:5,11).  This is the gospel message in advance.  The gospel is the good news; in Isaiah 40:9, 52:7.  Is. 53:1 the gospel is proclaimed. The gospel of Mark starts as it is written in Isaiah.  Zachariah 6:12 talks about the branch/ The Nazarene/ the Messiah.

Al Fadi and Anthony Rogers continue discussing Isaiah 52 and 53, They notice that this servant is an individual, a human, a man, not a nation.  The pronoun "He" is being used many times.  In Isaiah 52:13, This servant will be highly exalted.  In Isaiah 2, the Lord alone will be exalted; This shows the divine identity of this figure.  Isaiah 52: says that this upright man will suffer and die, buried , resurrected and exalted (Is. 52:13,14).  He will be stricken, smitten , and afflicted (Is. 53:4) . He will be chastened, scourged , and crushed (Is. 53: 5). This figure will die for the sins of his people, and he will succeed. This person is the Lord Jesus.

Al Fadi and Anthony Rogers begin a new series on the book of Isaiah, and focus on Isaiah 53.  Isaiah's name means Yahweh saves, which reminds us Jesus's name.   In this series they will cover the following: 1. Chapter 52-53 see that the Messiah will bring a new and greater exodus; redemption.  2. The Messiah is both a suffering servant and the incarnate deity.  3. That He will die and will be exalted; He will die as a substitutionary atonement for sinners and secure justification before God.

Muslims deny that God is triunity , yet in the Quran God is referred to with the plural pronoun" we".  In Sura 2:23,106, Sura10: 94, and Sura 66:12 where  it says that God and the Holy Spirt breathed into Mary.  Also in the Quran it says that the Spirit appeared to Mary in the form of a man.  Muslims can not explain the plurality of God and also his oneness. But Christian do throughout the Bible because God revealed himself that way.
