Part II ¦ Rebuting the Errors of Islam

 

One of the episodes involves Jesus making clay birds, which he then proceeds to bring to life, an act also attributed to Jesus in Quran 5:110, and in a medieval Jewish work known as Toledot Yeshu, although Jesus's age at the time of the event is not specified in either account. 

 The text describes the life of the child Yeshua / Jesus from the ages of five to twelve, with fanciful, and sometimes malevolent, supernatural events. He is presented as a precocious child who starts his education early. The stories cover how the young Incarnation of God matures and learns to use his powers for good and how those around him first respond in fear and later with admiration.

 One of the episodes involves Yeshua making clay birds, which he then proceeds to bring to life, an act also attributed to Jesus in Quran 5:110,[20] and in a medieval Jewish work known as Toledot Yeshu, although Yeshua's age at the time of the event is not specified in either account. In another episode, a child disperses water that Yeshua has collected. Yeshua kills this first child, when at age one he curses a boy, which causes the child's body to wither into a corpse. Later, Yeshua kills another child via curse when the child apparently accidentally bumps into Yeshua , throws a stone at Yeshua or Jesus , or punches Yeshua (depending on the translation). 

When Joseph and Mary's neighbors complain, Yeshua miraculously strikes them blind. Jesus then starts receiving lessons, but tries to teach the teacher, instead, upsetting the teacher who suspects supernatural origins. Jesus is amused by this suspicion, which he confirms, and revokes all his earlier apparent cruelty. Subsequently, he resurrects a friend who is killed when he falls from a roof, and heals another who cuts his foot with an axe. After various other demonstrations of supernatural ability, new teachers try to teach Yeshua, but he proceeds to explain the law to them instead. 

Another set of miracles is mentioned, in which Yeshua heals his brother, who is bitten by a snake, and two others, who have died from different causes. Finally, the text recounts the episode in Luke in which Jesus, aged 12, teaches in the temple. Although the miracles seem quite randomly inserted into the text, three miracles are before and three are after each of the sets of lessons. The structure of the story is essentially: Bringing life to a dried fish (this is present only in later texts) (First group) Three Miracles - Breathes life into birds fashioned from clay; curses a boy, who then becomes a corpse (not present in Greek B); curses a boy who falls dead and his parents become blind Muslims do not worship Yeshua, who is known as Isa in Arabic, nor do they consider him divine, but they do believe that he was a prophet or messenger of God and he is called the Messiah in the Quran. 

Correcting the Issues raised by Muslims is very fundamental. We can not overlook the false believes about Yeshua by Muslims. We have to defend our faith. Yeshua is our hope. Our True Messiah. He is divine. Attempt to teach Jesus, which fails, with Jesus doing the teaching Three Miracles - Reverses his earlier acts (this would include resurrecting the two boys and healing the blind parents), resurrects a friend who fell from a roof, heals a man who chopped his foot with an axe[21] (Second group) Three Miracles - carries water on cloth, produces a feast from a single grain, and stretches a beam of wood to help his father finish constructing a bed Attempts to teach Jesus, which fail, with Jesus doing the teaching Three Miracles - heals James from snake poison, resurrects a child who died of illness, and resurrects a man who died in a construction accident.
