The Dead Sea scrolls confirm the info in surah Al kahf. According to historians the Essenes lived in caves for 300 years and they used a solar calendar unlike other Israelites who used a lunar calendar. This is confirmed in surah Al kahf where Allah almighty is pulling our attention to the mathematical conversion (300 years and 309 years) one is solar calendar years and the other is Lunar calendar years. Allah would not have made the conversion if the essenes used a lunar calendar. This info was only discovered in the Dead Sea scrolls and not known before that.
Assalamwalaikum Mr. Williams, I am an undergraduate student and I am a student of knowledge of your insight and videos, All praises do to Allah SWT, you have made me a much more knowledgeable student when it comes to defending Islam.
You should read the books yourself. Paul has a tendency not to be very accurate in what he reports what others say. He refers to the Birmingham folies as if they are a complete quran, they are not. And more than 75% of surah 33 are missing, so why would he worry about 15% of one book of the Hebrew Bible not being used today. That alone makes Paul a hypocrite and what he says must be taken with a pinch of salt.
@@hassanmirza2392 I agree, Paul did not say that the Birmingham folios where not a full quran and he did not say that some 75% of surah 33 are missing. Wonder why he did not mention this. You think he is ignorant of this fact or that he is just dishonst?
AsSalaamu Aleykum mr Paul, very interesting again! I converted to Islam a few months ago and the amount of information I received from your podcast/channel is tremendous alhamdulillah. My family is Christian, Protestants. I’m hoping one day they will accept me sharing some of your videos like these with them, because it’s just very interesting and informative and it’s never a bad idea to learn something, Goodday, Kim
WA Alaikum Salaam, May Allah cause each and every member of your Family and Friends to Accept Islam at your Hands! May we all meet in Jannat Al Firdaus Aameen Ya Rabbul Aameen!

This video made me think about this vers فَوَيْلٌۭ لِّلَّذِينَ يَكْتُبُونَ ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ بِأَيْدِيهِمْ ثُمَّ يَقُولُونَ هَـٰذَا مِنْ عِندِ ٱللَّهِ لِيَشْتَرُوا۟ بِهِۦ ثَمَنًۭا قَلِيلًۭا ۖ فَوَيْلٌۭ لَّهُم مِّمَّا كَتَبَتْ أَيْدِيهِمْ وَوَيْلٌۭ لَّهُم مِّمَّا يَكْسِبُونَ ٧٩ So woe to those who distort the Scripture with their own hands then say, “This is from Allah”-seeking a fleeting gain! So woe to them for what their hands have written, and woe to them for what they have earned.
8 How can you say, "We are wise, for we have the law of the Lord," when actually the lying pen of the scribes has handled it falsely? 9 The wise will be put to shame; they will be dismayed and trapped. Since they have rejected the word of the Lord, what kind of wisdom do they have? [NIV Jeremiah 8:8-9]
@badroboudjerda4394 Yes, that's the point. Jeremiah is from the Bible itself and identified the issue for them. So God continued to send them Prophets to correct what was falsified until we got the final revelation, the Qur'an.
@jannievorster3371 Did the serpent present evidences to his claims, facts that could be fact checked, sources that could be analysed. Or did the serpent play on the emotions and urged pure blind faith? Think about that

👋👍Excellent presentation! It's well known that the Hebrew Bible was 'corrected' by Jewish scribes around 800 BCE (after the end of the Bronze Age). Seems like Mr B. Ehrman's book confirms that. Definitely worth reading it!
@@georgiacap9294 Yes, but Esther is later and Brat needs to reform his late Daniel hypothesis based on the DSS fragments. The video totally omits many facts on a complex subject, probably because he's pushing a fake interpretation on The Passion.
in the book of Isiah (from dead sea scroll) chapter 42 verse 11 it is written... "Let the desert cry out, its cities and the villages that Kedar inhabits, and let the inhabitants of Sela sing for joy. Let them shout aloud from the tops of the mountains." Kedar was the son of Ismail As and also sela is the mountain in medinah just 500 metres away from masjid nabwi. So the prophecy of Hazrat Muhammad SA is there in the dead sea scrolls
@@hahaloser3914you may be referring to other scroll because there were many pages found but The only scroll which was found from start to end was book of isiah and in that chapter 42 verse 11 Muhammad SAW sign is there Thanks
No printing press , they relied on hand writing of people who could make one mistake and pass it on to everyone. While Muslims relied on memorization of the Quran and were always corrected by each other especially when they lead prayers
@@Sosarchives thats just your assumption. The fact it’s been preserved for 1450 years, Allah himself said He would preserve it in the Quran, says something. Allah also says he made it easy to remember, and we have 6-7 year olds who memorized the entire Quran , that also says something
I’m glad you did search on that, because Christian will say the Dead Sea scrolls confirmed bible preservation, thanks for these enlightenment and Alhamdullilahi for Islam and peace and blessings of be unto the last prophet Muhammad sallahu alaihi wasallam , his family and the sahaba for the Quran compilation and preservation Amin
two silver scroll amulets from the Ketef Hinnom archaeological site are the oldest pieces of the Torah ever found in the world. The scrolls were discovered in 1979 and were estimated to be from around the late seventh or early sixth century BCE. The two small strips of silver contain what is known as the Priestly Benediction, from the Book of Numbers (the fourth book of the Torah), making it the oldest biblical passage ever found on an ancient artifact. The curse tablet of Mount Ebal about 1000 BCE
Subhanallah. The Book of Isaiah is said to contain the prophecy of our beloved Muhammad SAW. Recalling Dr Ali Ataie earlier talk w brother Paul. Lovely piece sir. Salam from KL
Christians would reply to this argument by saying ' I saw jesus in my dream and my life changed after that, Hallelujah, hence christianity must be true'
Nope, the implications for the “late” composition for the Pentateuch is that Abrahamic religion in general isn’t true. You guys can quote all the scholars but they all agree that moses, abraham and adam didn’t even exist. and it’s precisely due to the documentary hypothesis 😊
Also in the scroll is a group who followed someone they called the righteous teacher 150-100 years before Jesus and many things in gospels were clearly taken from this group, for all we know the gospel writers were probably part of this group
Paul, the scriptures of Ethiopia are at the root of all Semitic languages, sad that the English universities doesn't have any research of the ancient languages of that area. I wish there were.
So Hebrew scriptures from the Tanakh in the Dead Sea Scrolls would lack the type of phonetic vowel markings that were standardized much later in time; is that right? Songs of Solomon 5:11 His head is as the finest gold; his locks are curled, [they are as] black as a raven. Rashi comments on the meaning of "his head is as gold", saying: "[it] glistens like the finest gold. כֶּתֶם is a term referring to the treasures of kings which they store in their treasure houses, and similarly, (Lam. 4:1): “[How] changed is the fine gold jewelry (הַכֶּתֶם) ,” and similarly, (Job 31:24): “and to jewelry (לַכֶּתֶם) I said, ‘My confidence,’” and similarly, (Prov. 25:12): “and jewelry of finest gold (כָתֶם).” So this man is being described as a King. He isn't literally wearing a physical crown, but his head is still like the purest gold. This indicates spiritual and social status. Rashi then mentions that "hair as black as a raven" is a quality of beauty. This is what verse 11 literally says in Hebrew: rō-šōw ke-ṯem pāz his head [is] like gold; (the) finest qəw-wṣ-ṣō-w-ṯāw tal-tal-lîm his locks; wavy (like palm-branches) This is quite a strange literary device. This particular form only occurs in this verse. The Brown-Driver-Briggs dictionary says: "envelope or sheath of spadix of date-palm, with which hair is often compared in Arabic poetry", and that's why it's usually translated as "locks of wavy hair", but they aren't exactly sure what it means. They take that meaning from Arabic poetry, as there's no Biblical passage that uses this word, and nowhere else are any similar forms ever translated to mean "bushy locks". These are two nouns, by the way. So it's actually quite a difficult expression to translate. šə-ḥō-rō-wṯ kā-‘ō-w-rêḇ (and) [they are] black like a raven Note that the word for "(like a) raven" there is very similar to "(like an) Arab", if you'd subtly change it. In Ezekiel 27:21, it says עֲרַב֙ In Genesis 8:7, it says עֹרֵ֑ב The first ‘ă·raḇ means Arabia, whereas ‘ō-rêḇ in Genesis is a crow. Job 38:41 עֹרֵ֗ב Psalm 83:11 עֹרֵ֣ב The first ‘ō-rêḇ is a crow, while ‘ō·rêḇ in the Psalm is a proper noun and name: Oreb (a name of a Midianite, and of a cliff near the Jordan river). Job 24:5 עֲרָבָ֥ה That's ‘ă-rā-ḇāh, which now means desert or wilderness. Isaiah 13:20 עֲרָבִ֔י Nehemiah 2:19 הָֽעַרְבִ֔י This says ‘ă·rā·ḇî, which means an Arab, or an Arabian. Nehemiah reads hā-‘ar-ḇî, meaning "the Arab". The point being that "crow" and "Arab" are extremely similar in writing, and pronunciations differ only because of small diacritics. If the text hasn't been properly preserved, and isn't 100% intact, then another reading of šə-ḥō-rō-wṯ kā-‘ō-w-rêḇ might have said: "(and) [his hairs are] black like an Arab" The preposition kā here doesn't necessarily literally mean 'a resemblance', as kāna in Arabic can mean "to be", because ka- can mark the present tense. Kayqūl ma bḡa means "he says (presently) what he wants" and it wouldn't mean that 'it's similar to' "saying what he wants". Consider: "His head (is) as the finest gold, (and) his locks (are) black as an Arab('s typically are)". I've often wondered if my inquiry (and pseudo analysis) here could be valid, and if the scribes could've 'tweaked' the word, in order to change the meaning. After all, why would this text be describing an Arab? To them, that must've sounded strange. Maybe some ancient scribe thought that he was about to copy a previously made error, and that he needed to correct it. Other geographic designations, however, are used in Songs 5 to describe aspects of this individual and/or others (e.g. Lebanon and Jerusalem). Jeremiah 3:2 כַּעֲרָבִ֖י Songs 5:11 כָּעוֹרֵֽב Ka·‘ă·rā·ḇî from Jeremiah literally means "like an Arab", while kā·‘ō·w·rêḇ in Songs 5:11 means "like a raven". עֲרָבִי עֹרֵב Arabian: Ayin, Resh, Bet Raven: Ayin, Resh, Bet If we omit the Kaf in Jeremiah 3:2, it leaves us with the letters Ayin, Resh, Bet, but when we omit the Kaf in Songs, we have Ayin, Waw, Resh, Bet. Why is that? Why does it include the Waw here? Can anyone comment on that? "Raven" in Job 38:41, Genesis 8:7 and "Oreb" in Psalm 83:11 all lack a Waw. I don't understand why Songs' "raven" is spelled as A-W-R-B. It seems to be the only instance "raven" is written like that. Isaiah 34:11 wə-yan-šō-wp̄ wə-‘ō-rêḇ and the owl and the raven Here, וְעֹרֵ֖ב is spelled as A-R-B, as seems to be typical. Also, I can't really detect a rhyme scheme in the text, but I don't know Hebrew, so I'm not entirely sure there is none, and if there is; how it's structured. The previous verse ends with mê-rə-ḇā-ḇāh, and then verse 10 ends with šə-ḥō-rō-wṯ kā-‘ō-w-rêḇ, and in the middle of 12 it says rō-ḥă-ṣō-wṯ be-ḥā-lāḇ. Again, this is highly speculative on my part, and rooted in ignorance, but mê-rə-ḇā-ḇāh - šə-ḥō-rō-wṯ kā-‘ă·rāḇ - rō-ḥă-ṣō-wṯ be-ḥā-lāḇ kinda sounds more like a pattern to me. I looked up this chapter in the Dead Sea Scrolls, but it appears they haven't translated this part yet, or it doesn't exist in the scrolls. I could only find a translation of the first verse: Lover 1 I have come into my garden, my sister, my bride. I have gathered my myrrh with my spice; I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey; I have drunk my wine with my milk. I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey; Friends! Eat, friends! Drink, yes, drink abundantly, beloved. And this is filled with sidenotes. Different words, words with different spellings, English words supplied to make it readable wherever words are missing, etc. I think only six words of the above translation are identical to the traditional text. The rest all seem to be problematic in one way or another. At the top it says about this chapter: "Translation process is ongoing." This translation is from the 4Q107 Canticles (manuscript), labled 6Q6? I assume this describes the cave it's been found in, at Qumran. It's dated to 30 B.C - 68 A.D. The site says there are 4 scrolls containing (parts or fragments of) Songs of Solomon. Yet, verse 1 is all they got for chapter 5? Kinda meager, no? I don't know how up-to-date this particular website is. And I'm curious if 5:11 is included, and (if so), how it 'could' be read.

Thanks Paul sharing for this, quite an interesting one. I’d suggest you to search Dr. Zafer Duygu and his works on this subject, he’s one of the most knowledgeable and highly respected researchers in Turkey on this matter, his main studies are about the evidences of the historical transformation of Christianity and Judaism and the Scriptures. Maybe you can invite him one day to your platform.
Dr Kipp Davis is an expert in the DSS, he's also active on YT. Would be an epic crossover if you feature him, he has many insights I find very helpful!
Salaam brother Paul. Moses AS could not have lived 2-2,5000 BCE as Ramesis the second (pharaoh of exodus) lived about 1200 BCE. Furthermore, Yusuf AS was most likely in Egypt during the Hyksos era which was only about 1500BCE

Whoever is interrogated for his account will be punished.” •Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 2876

It is indeed a fact that the Hebrew script had adopted the Arabic system of ‘inflections.’ Wrt to the Dead Sea Scrolls, I urge people to read the book ‘The Dead Sea Scrolls Deception’ by Michael Baigent and Richard Leigh.

3:20 Paul, Moses didn't live 2000 or 2500BCE, not by any historical account. Definitely within 1450-1250BCE, this being the 18th or 19th dynasty of Egypt.
Tbh, the terms "Complete Bible" is kinda missleading at this point. what I mean is that we dont have the "Complete Bible" today, as we all know some individuals make their own version of "Complete Bible". and on top of that, the exegeses from the church and the layman are kinda full of missguidance and all over the place as well from the "Complete Bible" itself. 15:40 About the "Book of Isaiah" I wonder why it preserve like that. hmm
Alhamdulillah. I learned more about Dead sea scrolls. My Allah rewards you abundantly, brother Paul. Have you make a video of discussion with dead sea scrolls expert, Dr Eisenman?

The Dead Sea scrolls confirm the info in surah Al kahf. According to historians the Essenes lived in caves for 300 years and they used a solar calendar unlike other Israelites who used a lunar calendar. This is confirmed in surah Al kahf where Allah almighty is pulling our attention to / with the mathematical conversion (300 years and 309 years) one is solar calendar years and the other is Lunar calendar years. This info was only discovered after the Dead Sea scrolls were discovered
@@faiqdzihnan That is exactly being questioned: is it truly from God of the Bible? Now if the Quran is not referring to the God of Jesus Christ then it would seem Allah has no history before the 7th century as if someone made him up. You can't have it both ways, you can't claim you worship the God of Abraham then have the Quran contradict all scriptures written before the 7th century.
@@smidlee7747 do you know why there are so many prophets in the first place?. Because human always changed/corrupted the teaching of the prophet. Every prophet taught monotheism, not trinity. Why is there no prophet after Muhammad pbuh?, because quran is preserved.
@@faiqdzihnan No because the law demands there is at least two witnesses for something to be established and so someone doesn't become proud and think he is God's special pet... like Muhammad. Jesus came to fulfill the law and prophets so John the Baptist was the last prophet. Of course Muhammad is not the last one claiming to be a prophet , Joseph Smith , Warren Jeffs who is now in prison claimed to be a prophet. Like Muhammad they were solo prophets.
In book of Jeremiah the scribes were scolded, while a prophet was among them. I do not trust them with the preservation centuries after that, with no one I can trust correcting them.
Why do Islamists, have to keep commenting on Christian comments. Every single time. The Koran, is not relevant to Christian beliefs, it was written long after Jesus's death. It doesn't recognise Jesus as God's son, but a prophet and acknowledging Jesus, as God's only begotten son, is the very point of Christianity. I'm not interested in Islam or it's teaching and these constant, interfering posts, trying to make Islam the centre of everything, is getting very annoying.

People tend to forget a very important aspect of the bible That being it primarily was an oral tradition memorised by talmidim/Talmed (hebrew and aramaic for "narrator") it had many oral iterations in aramaic, some like the Vetus Syria which is a reconstruction of the XIX to XX century, of an earlier manuscript compiled by a Christian monk on the 2nd century A.D. The Vetus Syria even predates the aramaic greek revisions of the 5th century a.D. in which Christian bishops revised aramaic bibles to better align to Greek cognates and grammatical structure Best example of this being the Aramaic Bible of the Christians of Edesa and their Bishop Rabula. One can only wonder why the church felt the need to align aramaic text to greek grammar and loan words ;) But the bigger point would be that Aramaic texts predated the compilation of the greek bible, since precisely te greek revision ocurred in the fifth century a.D. pretty much at the same time the Greek Bible was compiled, since we know the Greek Bible earliest manuscripts date to this century. Implying really aramaic prints of the vetus syria are way more reliable than Hebrew even, because Aramaic is the primary language of oral transmision, and the vetus syria is a reconstruction of a pre-greek revision manuscript. Hebrew reconstructions such as the Leningrad and most hebrew prints that come from it are only partially reliable in comparision to Aramaic manuscripts comming from the Vetus Syria.
Notice the slight of hand (deception). Williams says (3:44) the oldest "complete manuscript", which he means a complete copy of the old testament, that we have is the Leningrad codex which dates from the year "1000 CE". Then (6:43) williams gives muslims "a footnote" by comparing the Leningrad codex with the koran. The example he gives is the Birmingham manuscript. But, this is his deception trick, because he is comparing the COMPLETE Leningrad bible with three suras in Birmingham. So he is not comparing a complete bible with a complete koran. He is comparing a complete bible with SCRAPS of the/A koran in Birmingham, whose scraps text are not completely identical to the same suras you have today.. If paul used equal scales, there are old testament manuscript scraps too, that are older than the Leningrad codex. Much older. The ketef Hinnom scrolls which has material from leviticus and deuteronomy is dated at the "late 7th century or early 6th century BCE. 1000 years older than islam! So instead on comparing fragment for fragment, like the ketef hinnom scroll with the three suras in Birmingham, williams deliberately deceives his audience into thinking that he is comparing a complete koran with the complete Leningrad codex, when he is not doing so at all. Even right before he tries to make a comparison with the Birmingham manuscript three suras, he says "but not even among the Dead Sea scrolls did we find complete manuscripts OF THE ENTIRE HEBREW BIBLE". But the Birmingham manuscripts are NOT "the entire" koran. It is just three suras. Williams even calls the three suras of the Birmingham manuscript (6:49) "copies of the koran". It is not a copy of the koran. Birmingham manuscripts are only three suras. So is williams just stupid or is he corrupt? You decide. There can be no other possible explanations for why williams did what he did. I don't know why muslims accept such charlatans tricking muslims into believing false information. What it does show though is that Williams is very corrupt. If you are going to teach something, teach it. Don't corrupt and distort the facts in hope that no one would notice. I have placed the time stamps in this post so you can go and see for yourselves the trick williams tries to pull off. And then ask yourselves, is this what you want, someone to deceive you and lead you into believing a lie? And then ask yourselves, what time of person does that? Someone who actually believes in God, or an atheist who is free to lie and distort without fear of divine judgement? Or is, that Williams thinks his god allah approves of the deception if it makes islam look better than it really is?
Both , the Torah and the Quran were orally revealed. The Muslims memorized the Quran from beginning and passed it down to the next generations we still can trace back to Muhammad (saw) , the Torah we have today cannot be traced back to Moses (as) as it was written today. The Quran also has these complete manuscripts like the Samarkand codex , only removed by 150 years from Muhammad (saw) , meanwhile the oldest full manuscript of the Old Testament is removed 1300 years from Moses (as) and the oldest complete bible is removed 350 years from Jesus (as) in a foreign language. So to sum up , the oral memorization is better perfectly preserved in Islam and the oldest manuscript of the Quran is more near to Muhammad (saw) than the other scriptures that are removed by 350 to 1300 years to their prophets lifetime
It is in the extant Mosaic Torah, same place it's been since the ash-dat v. ash dat. The letters are derived from the text, the code determines the chosen sequence.
Mr Paul will you please sit down. Your Quran can’t touch the Tenakh. Your Quran came from some unknown angel who beat up Muhammad in the cave. And not only that your Quran doesn’t answer questions at All
thank you for this video, but one thing that bothered me is that in the early parts of your video you mention dates an centuries allot, but in the later parts of the video you talk about books and new and old testament and the canon, but you don't talk about when those are? could you add a pinned comment or description with timestamps when you talk about books from which century or time it was from.

The disciples said," We are supporters for Allah . We have believed in Allah and testify that we are Muslims [submitting to Him]. رَبَّنَا آمَنَّا بِمَا أَنْزَلْتَ وَاتَّبَعْنَا الرَّسُولَ فَاكْتُبْنَا مَعَ الشَّاهِدِينَ 53 Our Lord, we have believed in what You revealed and have followed the messenger Jesus, so register us among the witnesses [to truth]." وَمَكَرُوا وَمَكَرَ اللَّهُ ۖ وَاللَّهُ خَيْرُ الْمَاكِرِينَ 54 And the disbelievers planned, but Allah planned.

Then to Me is your return, and I will judge between you concerning that in which you used to differ. فَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا فَأُعَذِّبُهُمْ عَذَابًا شَدِيدًا فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ وَمَا لَهُمْ مِنْ نَاصِرِينَ 56 And as for those who disbelieved, I will punish them with a severe punishment in this world and the Hereafter, and they will have no helpers." وَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ فَيُوَفِّيهِمْ أُجُورَهُمْ ۗ وَاللَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ الظَّالِمِينَ 57 But as for those who believed and did righteous deeds, He will give them in full their rewards, and Allah does not like the wrongdoers.

The Dead Sea scrolls confirm the info in surah Al kahf. According to historians the Essenes lived in caves for 300 years and they used a solar calendar unlike other Israelites who used a lunar calendar. This is confirmed in surah Al kahf where Allah almighty is pulling our attention to the mathematical conversion (300 years and 309 years) one is solar calendar years and the other is Lunar calendar years. Allah would not have made the conversion if the essenes used a lunar calendar. This info was only discovered in the Dead Sea scrolls and not known before that.
Another Dead Sea scrolls expert is Dr Robert Eisenman who in one of his videos said the message of Jesus was VERY ISLAMIC.
Forgive me.. Correct me if I am wrong.. Moses bin Imran bin Kehat bin Levy bin Jacob PBUH lived about 1.800 BC
Based on the data I have, the time between Moses death and the coming of Jesus was about 1741 years.

You should read the books yourself. Paul has a tendency not to be very accurate in what he reports what others say. He refers to the Birmingham folies as if they are a complete quran, they are not. And more than 75% of surah 33 are missing, so why would he worry about 15% of one book of the Hebrew Bible not being used today. That alone makes Paul a hypocrite and what he says must be taken with a pinch of salt.

So woe to those who distort the Scripture with their own hands then say, “This is from Allah”-seeking a fleeting gain! So woe to them for what their hands have written, and woe to them for what they have earned.

8 How can you say, "We are wise, for we have the law of the Lord,"
when actually the lying pen of the scribes has handled it falsely?
9 The wise will be put to shame; they will be dismayed and trapped.

@badroboudjerda4394 Yes, that's the point. Jeremiah is from the Bible itself and identified the issue for them. So God continued to send them Prophets to correct what was falsified until we got the final revelation, the Qur'an.
One might also ask how the rules concerning the copying of religious texts by scribes came about unless there had been some cause.

No printing press , they relied on hand writing of people who could make one mistake and pass it on to everyone. While Muslims relied on memorization of the Quran and were always corrected by each other especially when they lead prayers

Thanks for making video on Dead Sea Scrolls.
two silver scroll amulets from the Ketef Hinnom archaeological site are the oldest pieces of the Torah ever found in the world. The scrolls were discovered in 1979 and were estimated to be from around the late seventh or early sixth century BCE. The two small strips of silver contain what is known as the Priestly Benediction, from the Book of Numbers (the fourth book of the Torah), making it the oldest biblical passage ever found on an ancient artifact.
The curse tablet of Mount Ebal about 1000 BCE
Perfect! This book requires a few more segments of exposition.

Christians would reply to this argument by saying
' I saw jesus in my dream and my life changed after that, Hallelujah, hence christianity must be true'
Nope, the implications for the “late” composition for the Pentateuch is that Abrahamic religion in general isn’t true. You guys can quote all the scholars but they all agree that moses, abraham and adam didn’t even exist.

Thank you. Nice information
So Hebrew scriptures from the Tanakh in the Dead Sea Scrolls would lack the type of phonetic vowel markings that were standardized much later in time; is that right?
Songs of Solomon
5:11
His head is as the finest gold; his locks are curled, [they are as] black as a raven.
Rashi comments on the meaning of "his head is as gold", saying: "[it] glistens like the finest gold. כֶּתֶם is a term referring to the treasures of kings which they store in their treasure houses, and similarly, (Lam. 4:1): “[How] changed is the fine gold jewelry (הַכֶּתֶם) ,” and similarly, (Job 31:24): “and to jewelry (לַכֶּתֶם) I said, ‘My confidence,’” and similarly, (Prov. 25:12): “and jewelry of finest gold (כָתֶם).”
So this man is being described as a King. He isn't literally wearing a physical crown, but his head is still like the purest gold. This indicates spiritual and social status.
Rashi then mentions that "hair as black as a raven" is a quality of beauty. This is what verse 11 literally says in Hebrew:
rō-šōw ke-ṯem pāz
his head [is] like gold; (the) finest
qəw-wṣ-ṣō-w-ṯāw tal-tal-lîm
his locks; wavy (like palm-branches)
This is quite a strange literary device. This particular form only occurs in this verse. The Brown-Driver-Briggs dictionary says: "envelope or sheath of spadix of date-palm, with which hair is often compared in Arabic poetry", and that's why it's usually translated as "locks of wavy hair", but they aren't exactly sure what it means. They take that meaning from Arabic poetry, as there's no Biblical passage that uses this word, and nowhere else are any similar forms ever translated to mean "bushy locks". These are two nouns, by the way. So it's actually quite a difficult expression to translate.
šə-ḥō-rō-wṯ kā-‘ō-w-rêḇ
(and) [they are] black like a raven
Note that the word for "(like a) raven" there is very similar to "(like an) Arab", if you'd subtly change it.
In Ezekiel 27:21, it says עֲרַב֙
In Genesis 8:7, it says עֹרֵ֑ב
The first ‘ă·raḇ means Arabia, whereas ‘ō-rêḇ in Genesis is a crow.
Job 38:41 עֹרֵ֗ב
Psalm 83:11 עֹרֵ֣ב
The first ‘ō-rêḇ is a crow, while ‘ō·rêḇ in the Psalm is a proper noun and name: Oreb (a name of a Midianite, and of a cliff near the Jordan river).
Job 24:5 עֲרָבָ֥ה
That's ‘ă-rā-ḇāh, which now means desert or wilderness.
Isaiah 13:20 עֲרָבִ֔י
Nehemiah 2:19 הָֽעַרְבִ֔י
This says ‘ă·rā·ḇî, which means an Arab, or an Arabian. Nehemiah reads hā-‘ar-ḇî, meaning "the Arab".
The point being that "crow" and "Arab" are extremely similar in writing, and pronunciations differ only because of small diacritics.
If the text hasn't been properly preserved, and isn't 100% intact, then another reading of šə-ḥō-rō-wṯ kā-‘ō-w-rêḇ might have said: "(and) [his hairs are] black like an Arab"
The preposition kā here doesn't necessarily literally mean 'a resemblance', as kāna in Arabic can mean "to be", because ka- can mark the present tense. Kayqūl ma bḡa means "he says (presently) what he wants" and it wouldn't mean that 'it's similar to' "saying what he wants". Consider: "His head (is) as the finest gold, (and) his locks (are) black as an Arab('s typically are)". I've often wondered if my inquiry (and pseudo analysis) here could be valid, and if the scribes could've 'tweaked' the word, in order to change the meaning. After all, why would this text be describing an Arab? To them, that must've sounded strange. Maybe some ancient scribe thought that he was about to copy a previously made error, and that he needed to correct it. Other geographic designations, however, are used in Songs 5 to describe aspects of this individual and/or others (e.g. Lebanon and Jerusalem).
Jeremiah 3:2 כַּעֲרָבִ֖י
Songs 5:11 כָּעוֹרֵֽב
Ka·‘ă·rā·ḇî from Jeremiah literally means "like an Arab", while kā·‘ō·w·rêḇ in Songs 5:11 means "like a raven".
עֲרָבִי
עֹרֵב
Arabian: Ayin, Resh, Bet
Raven: Ayin, Resh, Bet
If we omit the Kaf in Jeremiah 3:2, it leaves us with the letters Ayin, Resh, Bet, but when we omit the Kaf in Songs, we have Ayin, Waw, Resh, Bet. Why is that? Why does it include the Waw here? Can anyone comment on that? "Raven" in Job 38:41, Genesis 8:7 and "Oreb" in Psalm 83:11 all lack a Waw. I don't understand why Songs' "raven" is spelled as A-W-R-B. It seems to be the only instance "raven" is written like that.
Isaiah 34:11
wə-yan-šō-wp̄ wə-‘ō-rêḇ
and the owl and the raven
Here, וְעֹרֵ֖ב is spelled as A-R-B, as seems to be typical. Also, I can't really detect a rhyme scheme in the text, but I don't know Hebrew, so I'm not entirely sure there is none, and if there is; how it's structured. The previous verse ends with mê-rə-ḇā-ḇāh, and then verse 10 ends with šə-ḥō-rō-wṯ kā-‘ō-w-rêḇ, and in the middle of 12 it says rō-ḥă-ṣō-wṯ be-ḥā-lāḇ. Again, this is highly speculative on my part, and rooted in ignorance, but mê-rə-ḇā-ḇāh - šə-ḥō-rō-wṯ kā-‘ă·rāḇ - rō-ḥă-ṣō-wṯ be-ḥā-lāḇ kinda sounds more like a pattern to me.
I looked up this chapter in the Dead Sea Scrolls, but it appears they haven't translated this part yet, or it doesn't exist in the scrolls. I could only find a translation of the first verse:
Lover
1 I have come into my garden, my sister, my bride.
I have gathered my myrrh with my spice;
I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey;
I have drunk my wine with my milk.
I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey;
Friends! Eat, friends! Drink, yes, drink abundantly, beloved.
And this is filled with sidenotes. Different words, words with different spellings, English words supplied to make it readable wherever words are missing, etc. I think only six words of the above translation are identical to the traditional text. The rest all seem to be problematic in one way or another. At the top it says about this chapter: "Translation process is ongoing." This translation is from the 4Q107 Canticles (manuscript), labled 6Q6? I assume this describes the cave it's been found in, at Qumran. It's dated to 30 B.C - 68 A.D. The site says there are 4 scrolls containing (parts or fragments of) Songs of Solomon. Yet, verse 1 is all they got for chapter 5? Kinda meager, no? I don't know how up-to-date this particular website is. And I'm curious if 5:11 is included, and (if so), how it 'could' be read.

Thanks Paul sharing for this, quite an interesting one. I’d suggest you to search Dr. Zafer Duygu and his works on this subject, he’s one of the most knowledgeable and highly respected researchers in Turkey on this matter, his main studies are about the evidences of the historical transformation of Christianity and Judaism and the Scriptures. Maybe you can invite him one day to your platform.

Salaam brother Paul. Moses AS could not have lived 2-2,5000 BCE as Ramesis the second (pharaoh of exodus) lived about 1200 BCE. Furthermore, Yusuf AS was most likely in Egypt during the Hyksos era which was only about 1500BCE
Yh 1200BCE was about to say
why do you think it was the time of ramesis? we should rely on what the companions told about the pharaoh of Musa a

The Dead Sea scrolls confirm the info in surah Al kahf. According to historians the Essenes lived in caves for 300 years and they used a solar calendar unlike other Israelites who used a lunar calendar. This is confirmed in surah Al kahf where Allah almighty is pulling our attention to / with the mathematical conversion (300 years and 309 years) one is solar calendar years and the other is Lunar calendar years. This info was only discovered after the Dead Sea scrolls were discovered
They were a Tsadokim sect, not Essenes.
The earliest complete copy of the New Testament is the 4th century older than Muhammad and the Quran.
So?, doesn't matter what time Quran was revealed because it's from god to correct the corrupted scripture before it.
@@faiqdzihnan That is exactly being questioned: is it truly from God of the Bible?
Now if the Quran is not referring to the God of Jesus Christ then it would seem Allah has no history before the 7th century as if someone made him up.
You can't have it both ways, you can't claim you worship the God of Abraham then have the Quran contradict all scriptures written before the 7th century.
@@smidlee7747 do you know why there are so many prophets in the first place?. Because human always changed/corrupted the teaching of the prophet. Every prophet taught monotheism, not trinity. Why is there no prophet after Muhammad pbuh?, because quran is preserved.
@@smidlee7747 ask any rabbis which religion is closer/similar to Judaism. They'll answer Islam, not Christianity.
@@faiqdzihnan No because the law demands there is at least two witnesses for something to be established and so someone doesn't become proud and think he is God's special pet... like Muhammad.
Jesus came to fulfill the law and prophets so John the Baptist was the last prophet.
Of course Muhammad is not the last one claiming to be a prophet , Joseph Smith , Warren Jeffs who is now in prison claimed to be a prophet. Like Muhammad they were solo prophets.
In book of Jeremiah the scribes were scolded, while a prophet was among them. I do not trust them with the preservation centuries after that, with no one I can trust correcting them.
Alhumdulillah for Islam
The Bible has too many contradictions to be reliable. No such contradictions in the Quran.
Why do Islamists, have to keep commenting on Christian comments. Every single time.
The Koran, is not relevant to Christian beliefs, it was written long after Jesus's death.
It doesn't recognise Jesus as God's son, but a prophet and acknowledging Jesus, as God's only begotten son, is the very point of Christianity.
I'm not interested in Islam or it's teaching and these constant, interfering posts, trying to make Islam the centre of everything, is getting very annoying.
Just try reading the accounts of Noach and you will find apparent contradictions, why should the earlier scripture not be so?

Love your videos ❤
People tend to forget a very important aspect of the bible
That being it primarily was an oral tradition memorised by talmidim/Talmed (hebrew and aramaic for "narrator") it had many oral iterations in aramaic, some like the Vetus Syria which is a reconstruction of the XIX to XX century, of an earlier manuscript compiled by a Christian monk on the 2nd century A.D.
The Vetus Syria even predates the aramaic greek revisions of the 5th century a.D. in which Christian bishops revised aramaic bibles to better align to Greek cognates and grammatical structure
Best example of this being the Aramaic Bible of the Christians of Edesa and their Bishop Rabula.
One can only wonder why the church felt the need to align aramaic text to greek grammar and loan words ;)
But the bigger point would be that Aramaic texts predated the compilation of the greek bible, since precisely te greek revision ocurred in the fifth century a.D. pretty much at the same time the Greek Bible was compiled, since we know the Greek Bible earliest manuscripts date to this century.
Implying really aramaic prints of the vetus syria are way more reliable than Hebrew even, because Aramaic is the primary language of oral transmision, and the vetus syria is a reconstruction of a pre-greek revision manuscript.
Hebrew reconstructions such as the Leningrad and most hebrew prints that come from it are only partially reliable in comparision to Aramaic manuscripts comming from the Vetus Syria.
Notice the slight of hand (deception). Williams says (3:44) the oldest "complete manuscript", which he means a complete copy of the old testament, that we have is the Leningrad codex which dates from the year "1000 CE". Then (6:43) williams gives muslims "a footnote" by comparing the Leningrad codex with the koran. The example he gives is the Birmingham manuscript. But, this is his deception trick, because he is comparing the COMPLETE Leningrad bible with three suras in Birmingham. So he is not comparing a complete bible with a complete koran. He is comparing a complete bible with SCRAPS of the/A koran in Birmingham, whose scraps text are not completely identical to the same suras you have today.. If paul used equal scales, there are old testament manuscript scraps too, that are older than the Leningrad codex. Much older.
The ketef Hinnom scrolls which has material from leviticus and deuteronomy is dated at the "late 7th century or early 6th century BCE. 1000 years older than islam!
So instead on comparing fragment for fragment, like the ketef hinnom scroll with the three suras in Birmingham, williams deliberately deceives his audience into thinking that he is comparing a complete koran with the complete Leningrad codex, when he is not doing so at all. Even right before he tries to make a comparison with the Birmingham manuscript three suras, he says "but not even among the Dead Sea scrolls did we find complete manuscripts OF THE ENTIRE HEBREW BIBLE". But the Birmingham manuscripts are NOT "the entire" koran. It is just three suras. Williams even calls the three suras of the Birmingham manuscript (6:49) "copies of the koran". It is not a copy of the koran. Birmingham manuscripts are only three suras.
So is williams just stupid or is he corrupt? You decide. There can be no other possible explanations for why williams did what he did.
I don't know why muslims accept such charlatans tricking muslims into believing false information. What it does show though is that Williams is very corrupt. If you are going to teach something, teach it. Don't corrupt and distort the facts in hope that no one would notice. I have placed the time stamps in this post so you can go and see for yourselves the trick williams tries to pull off. And then ask yourselves, is this what you want, someone to deceive you and lead you into believing a lie? And then ask yourselves, what time of person does that? Someone who actually believes in God, or an atheist who is free to lie and distort without fear of divine judgement? Or is, that Williams thinks his god allah approves of the deception if it makes islam look better than it really is?
Both , the Torah and the Quran were orally revealed. The Muslims memorized the Quran from beginning and passed it down to the next generations we still can trace back to Muhammad (saw) , the Torah we have today cannot be traced back to Moses (as) as it was written today. The Quran also has these complete manuscripts like the Samarkand codex , only removed by 150 years from Muhammad (saw) , meanwhile the oldest full manuscript of the Old Testament is removed 1300 years from Moses (as) and the oldest complete bible is removed 350 years from Jesus (as) in a foreign language. So to sum up , the oral memorization is better perfectly preserved in Islam and the oldest manuscript of the Quran is more near to Muhammad (saw) than the other scriptures that are removed by 350 to 1300 years to their prophets lifetime

وَرَسُولًا إِلَىٰ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَنِّي قَدْ جِئْتُكُمْ بِآيَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ ۖ أَنِّي أَخْلُقُ لَكُمْ مِنَ الطِّينِ كَهَيْئَةِ الطَّيْرِ فَأَنْفُخُ فِيهِ فَيَكُونُ طَيْرًا بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ ۖ وَأُبْرِئُ الْأَكْمَهَ وَالْأَبْرَصَ وَأُحْيِي الْمَوْتَىٰ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ ۖ وَأُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِمَا تَأْكُلُونَ وَمَا تَدَّخِرُونَ فِي بُيُوتِكُمْ ۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَآيَةً لَكُمْ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُؤْمِنِينَ 49
And [make him] a messenger to the Children of Israel, [who will say], 'Indeed I have come to you with a sign from your Lord in that I design for you from clay [that which is] like the form of a bird, then I breathe into it and it becomes a bird by permission of Allah . And I cure the blind and the leper, and I give life to the dead - by permission of Allah . And I inform you of what you eat and what you store in your houses. Indeed in that is a sign for you, if you are believers.
وَمُصَدِّقًا لِمَا بَيْنَ يَدَيَّ مِنَ التَّوْرَاةِ وَلِأُحِلَّ لَكُمْ بَعْضَ الَّذِي حُرِّمَ عَلَيْكُمْ ۚ وَجِئْتُكُمْ بِآيَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَأَطِيعُونِ 50
And [I have come] confirming what was before me of the Torah and to make lawful for you some of what was forbidden to you. And I have come to you with a sign from your Lord, so fear Allah and obey me.
إِنَّ اللَّهَ رَبِّي وَرَبُّكُمْ فَاعْبُدُوهُ ۗ هَٰذَا صِرَاطٌ مُسْتَقِيمٌ 51
Indeed, Allah is my Lord and your Lord, so worship Him. That is the straight path."
فَلَمَّا أَحَسَّ عِيسَىٰ مِنْهُمُ الْكُفْرَ قَالَ مَنْ أَنْصَارِي إِلَى اللَّهِ ۖ قَالَ الْحَوَارِيُّونَ نَحْنُ أَنْصَارُ اللَّهِ آمَنَّا بِاللَّهِ وَاشْهَدْ بِأَنَّا مُسْلِمُونَ 52
But when Jesus felt [persistence in] disbelief from them, he said, "Who are my supporters for [the cause of] Allah ?" The disciples said," We are supporters for Allah . We have believed in Allah and testify that we are Muslims [submitting to Him].
رَبَّنَا آمَنَّا بِمَا أَنْزَلْتَ وَاتَّبَعْنَا الرَّسُولَ فَاكْتُبْنَا مَعَ الشَّاهِدِينَ 53
Our Lord, we have believed in what You revealed and have followed the messenger Jesus, so register us among the witnesses [to truth]."
وَمَكَرُوا وَمَكَرَ اللَّهُ ۖ وَاللَّهُ خَيْرُ الْمَاكِرِينَ 54
And the disbelievers planned, but Allah planned. And Allah is the best of planners.
إِذْ قَالَ اللَّهُ يَا عِيسَىٰ إِنِّي مُتَوَفِّيكَ وَرَافِعُكَ إِلَيَّ وَمُطَهِّرُكَ مِنَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا وَجَاعِلُ الَّذِينَ اتَّبَعُوكَ فَوْقَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ ۖ ثُمَّ إِلَيَّ مَرْجِعُكُمْ فَأَحْكُمُ بَيْنَكُمْ فِيمَا كُنْتُمْ فِيهِ تَخْتَلِفُونَ 55
[Mention] when Allah said, "O Jesus, indeed I will take you and raise you to Myself and purify you from those who disbelieve and make those who follow you [in submission to Allah alone] superior to those who disbelieve until the Day of Resurrection. Then to Me is your return, and I will judge between you concerning that in which you used to differ.
فَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا فَأُعَذِّبُهُمْ عَذَابًا شَدِيدًا فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ وَمَا لَهُمْ مِنْ نَاصِرِينَ 56
And as for those who disbelieved, I will punish them with a severe punishment in this world and the Hereafter, and they will have no helpers."
وَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ فَيُوَفِّيهِمْ أُجُورَهُمْ ۗ وَاللَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ الظَّالِمِينَ 57
But as for those who believed and did righteous deeds, He will give them in full their rewards, and Allah does not like the wrongdoers.
