                                    Muhammad in the Bible David Benjamin KeldaniEdited & Annotated by: Prof. Dawud M. R. Alhanbali & Prof, Dr. Kaseb A. Albadran ( 82 )described in the other Jewish Apocalypses, was not predestined to be hanged upon Golgotha, but to transform the thrones of the pagan kings into their own crosses; to change their palaces into calvaries, and to make sepulchres of their capital cities. Not Jesus(pbuh), but Muhammad (pbuh), had the honour of thistitle, “the Son of Man”! The facts aremore eloquent than even the Apocalypses and the visions. The material and moral conquests achieved by Muhammad (pbuh) the Holy Apostle of Allah over the enemy are unrivalled.The Son of Man According to the Jewish ApocalypsesFrom what has been already discussed in these pages it will have been that the appellation “Barnasha,” or “the Son of Man,” is not a title like “Messiah,” that could be applied to every prophet, high priest, and legally anointed king; but that it is a proper noun, belonging exclusively to the last prophetThe Apocalyptists describe the Son of Man, who is to come in due time as appointed by the Almighty to deliver Israel and Jerusalem from the heathenish oppression and to establish the permanent kingdom for “the People of the Saints of the Most High.” The Seers, the Sophees, foretell the advent of the Powerful Deliverer; they see him—only in a vision, revelation, and faith— with all his might and glory. No Prophet or Sophee ever said that he himself was “the Son of Man,” and that he would “come again on the Last Day to judge both the quick and the dead,” as the Nicene Creed puts it on the pretended authority of the Sayings of Jesus Christ (pbuh). I shall now proceed to show that the Apocalyptic Son of Man was no other than Muhammad al-Mustapha (pbuh).
