The Promised Prophet of the Bible

Page 7

It is clear that this honorable title “messiah” was not an exclusive title for Jesus (PBUH). It was a title given to the “expected prophet” for whom, the Jews, the children of Israel have been waiting, because God will grant him a kingdom, success and blessings far much greater than those that given to the anointed kings of the Jews. The messiah is a title for the “expected prophet” for whom the Jews were waiting and expecting, that is why they wondered when they saw John the Baptist whether if he was the next messiah or not, “he admitted and did not deny it, but admitted, “I am not the Messiah.” So they asked him, “What are you then? Are you Elijah?” (John1/21-22) When the crowd of Jews saw the miracles of Jesus (PBUH), they used the title “messiah”: “When the Messiah comes, will he perform more signs than this man has done?” (John 7/30-31) The “expected prophet” was also called messia which gives the same meaning of messiah, that can be found in the Book of John “We have found the Messiah” 29 (which is translated Anointed).” (John 1/41) the Serianic word “ma sheeh” is pronounced “messia” in languages that do not have the letter ‫ ””ح‬which has no equal in English but it is close to the letter “H”. Some people and they have the right of doing so, might demand that we have to present the verse or verses which clearly and indisputably indicate the name and description of Muhammad (PBUH). However, there are two issues related to the Holy Bible and its translations, which block the clarity of these prophecies. These two issues are well known to those who are acquainted with the Holy Bible, those who know the reason why these prophecies are lost or intentionally suppressed.
