Prophecy in the Quran and Suras

[reepicheep]

Wel_mel_2:


I'm doing my best to understand the point you are trying to make about Luke 3:23. Is the following an accurate summary of what you are claiming?


1) English language versions of the Koran contain made up phrases which are surrounded by brackets. This proves that every word in the Koran is true.


2) English language versions of the Bible contain made up phrases which are surrounded by brackets. This proves that the bible is full of lies and falsehoods.


3) English language punctuation marks such as commas, periods, brackets, and quotation marks do not appear in the Arabic Koran. This proves that every word in the Koran is true.


4) English language punctuation marks such as commas, periods, brackets, and quotation marks do not appear in the Greek New Testament. This proves that the bible is full of lies and falsehoods.


If that is what you are claiming, then your conclusions are not logical.


*****************************************


In regards to Luke 3:23, the phrase "as was thought" or "as was supposed" is definitely present in the original Greek. In the image you link to, the phrase corresponds to the two words which are fourth and fifth from the end (i.e., the two words which are preceeded and followed by commas).


This discussion we are having is based upon your claim that the phrase "as was supposed" is not present in the original Greek. Since the phrase is present, it follows that your argument is build upon a falsehood, and therefore your conclusions are invalid.


Unless you can provide us with at least one example, from the bible, of "made up" phrases surrounded by brackets, I think we can conclude that all your claims (in regards to brackets) are false.
