Moses himself received the revelation...
Moses himself received the revelation, but he conveyed the heavenly message by his own words. What we read in the five books of Moses is considered to be the words of Moses, not the very words of God. All the books of which the Old Testament is composed were written and worded by human writers, and so are the four gospels. Jesus spoke the truth which he received, but he spoke in his own words. The Bible, at best, is considered a dialogue between God and man.
Only the Qur'an contains the words which Muhammad recited as the very direct words of God. Muhammad never claimed any word in the Qur'an. He recited the Qur'anic words as the words of God who put them in the mouth of Muhammad. Thus, the descriptions seem to fit only Muhammad, and no one else. Another statement, indicating the anticipation of Muhammad, is found in the same Deuteronomy book: “This is the blessing with which Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death.
He said: The Lord came from Sinai, and dawned from Seir upon us; He shone forth from Mount Paran, He came from the ten thousands of holy ones with flaming fire at His right hand.” Deuteronomy 33 The Lord's coming means the coming of His revelation. Moses spoke of God's manifestation to three prophets at three places: The manifestation in Sinai which represents the prophethood of Moses himself. The other manifestation is the revelation which was received at Seir.
This represents the revelation which was received by Jesus because Seir is located in the land of Jordan. The third manifestation is the light of God which shone from the Mount of Paran. This represents the prophethood of Muhammad. The Mount of Paran is located in the country of Hijaz, the country in which Muhammad was born and lived. The following words give more indications to this fact: “He came from the ten thousands of holy ones, with flaming fire at His right hand.
” Deuteronomy 33,2 Muhammad is the Prophet who entered Mecca, the capital of Hijaz, heading an army of ten thousand Muslims by which he subdued the idol-worshippers of Mecca. The New Testament, also, contains some clear anticipation of the advent of Muhammad: “Jesus said unto them (the Israelites), did ye never read in the scriptures, the stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: This is the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes.
