In Bible versus Quran: The Lord God is the Ruler over the Pride of the Sea
The Sons of the Lord God in Bible versus Quran (6)
This is the sixth article of the series:" The Sons of the Lord God in Bible versus Quran". The Bible says that the Lord God, the Almighty Creator, has SONS but who among the sons of God is like the LORD? The Lord God is very terrible; He is fearful over all surrounding Him, He is the ruler over the pride of the sea. He crushed Rahab like one of the slain and scattered His enemies with His mighty arm.
- But what is the pride of the sea? Also, Ahab is not mentioned therein. In addition, Allah does not need to use a mighty arm to scattered His enemies; when He wants anything he just say: Be and it is as He wants.

The Sons of the Lord God in the Bible (6)
In Psalm 89:6-10 the Bible says:
For who in the skies is comparable to the LORD? Who among the Sons of God (sons of the mighty) is like the LORD, the Lord God is very terrible, In the secret counsel of His holy ones, And fearful over all surrounding Him. O LORD God of hosts, who is like You, O mighty LORD? Your faithfulness also surrounds you.
O LORD God of hosts, You are the ruler over the pride of the sea; when its waves rise, you still them in the lifting up of its billows Thou dost restrain them. O LORD God of hosts, You Yourself crushed Rahab like one who is slain; you scattered your enemies with Your mighty arm.
Sons of God versus sons of the mighty:
The original Hebrew version says: Who among the Sons of God is like the LORD?
Herein again, the original word "Sons of God" is translated to five different translations, the nearest one of them is the "sons of the mighty".
The five different translations of the "Sons of God" in 18 Biblical versions:
In 18 different versions of the Bible, the word "Sons of God" is translated to five different translations; they are sons of the mighty (in seven versions), the heavenly beings (in seven versions), the angels (in two versions) and the holy angels and the mightiest angels in one version each..
If you smart reader is interested, have a look at these 18 different versions of the Bible at the site of BibleGateway.com.
On the other hand, the Bible does not tell the names of the Sons of the Lord God, the Bible also does not give the physical attributes of the Sons of the Lord God. In addition, the Bible does not tell what the number of the Sons of the Lord God was and how many they were?
In short, the Bible does not let us know who, how, when, where, how many etc. in respect to the Sons of the Lord God.
Furthermore, the Bible gives some informative details about the sons of Judah, for example, but does not give any details about the Sons of the Lord God, the Almighty Creator, who of course are very much more important than the sons of Judah.

The Sons of the Lord God in the Quran (6)
On the other hand, the Quran makes it very clear and says that Allah, the Almighty Creator, has neither a son nor a partner.
The Quran decisively forbids saying that Allah has a son.
It is not befitting for the Majesty of Allah to take to Himself a son.
Allah has not taken any son either from the Children of Adam or from the angels.
Allah is exalted, magnified, He is above what they associate with Him of son or partners. Allah is far transcendent above all that they ascribe unto Him!
In Islam, this point is very important faith wise.
- Again, it is unforgivable sin to say or to believe that the One Almighty Creator [who is Allah or God or the Lord or Jehovah or whatever name(s) you are giving Him] has a son or Sons.
From the Islamic point of view, the conclusion of this essential topic that may establish or destroy the faith is that:
Any one who believe that the Almighty Creator has a son or Sons; he messes his faith up and is considered as a disbeliever and in the afterlife he will end up as an eternal inhabitant of the hell.

The meanings of verses 18:4-5:
The meanings of verse 18:4
And so that Muhammad warns by means of the Quran those, from among the disbelievers, who say: Allah has taken a son (or Allah has begotten a son).
The meanings of verse 18:5
In respect to this statement, they do not have any knowledge, nor did their fathers, before them, who also used to say this have any knowledge.
They have no proof or argument for what they claim
Dreadful, grave, is the word that comes out of their mouths that Allah has taken a son.
They speak nothing, thereby, but, an utterance of, lies.
They speak naught but a lie about Allah.
--------------------------------------------
Verses 18:4-5 of the Noble Quran in four different translations:
Verses 18:4
QARIB: and it (the koran) warns those who say: 'Allah has taken a son. '
SHAKIR: and warn those who say: Allah has taken a son
PICKTHAL: and to warn those who say: Allah hath chosen a son,
YUSUFALI: further, that he may warn those (also) who say, "Allah hath begotten a son":
Verses 18:5
QARIB: Surely, of this they have no knowledge, neither they nor their fathers; it is a monstrous word that comes from their mouths, they say nothing but a lie.
SHAKIR: they have no knowledge of it, nor had their fathers; a grievous word it is that comes out of their mouths; they speak nothing but a lie
PICKTHAL: (a thing) whereof they have no knowledge, nor (had) their fathers, dreadful is the word that cometh out of their mouths. They speak naught but a lie.
YUSUFALI: no knowledge have they of such a thing, nor had their fathers. it is a grievous thing that issues from their mouths as a saying what they say is nothing but falsehood!

The Bible says that the Lord God is very terrible, in the secret counsel of His holy ones. In the Quran, the secret counsel of the holy ones is not found therein.
The Bible says: O Jehovah, the Lord God of Hosts to thy faithfulness round about thee? In the Quran, Allah is the God of His entire creatures not just the hosts.
The Bible says: O Lord God, you scattered your enemies with your mighty arm. In the Quran, Allah does not need to use a mighty arm to scattered His enemies; when He wants anything he just say: Be and it is as He wants.
The Bible says that who among the sons of God is like the LORD? The Lord God is very terrible; He is fearful over all surrounding Him, He is the ruler over the pride of the sea. He crushed Rahab like one of the slain and scattered His enemies with His mighty arm. In the Quran, Allah has no sons. Also, the pride of the sea and Rahab are not mentioned therein.
The Bible says that the Lord God is fearful over all surrounding Him; he is more awesome than all who surround him. In the Quran, there is nothing similar or like Allah; hence, what are all surrounding Him?
The Bible says: O Jehovah, God of Hosts, Who is like Thee -- a strong Jah? In the Quran, Allah is the God of everything not just the hosts.
The Bible says that the Lord God has Sons. The Noble Quran warns those who say that Allah has taken a son (or Allah has begotten a son).

In spite of his office of Prophethood, Muhammad was a very gentle and lovely person. With all the severity and seriousness of his function, his company was neither boring nor dull and uninteresting, like that of most ordinary religious leaders, but was full of pleasant and charming humour. He often smiled and joked with his companions and laughed with them.

Adultery is violation of the marriage bed; it is the voluntary sexual intercourse between a married person and someone other than his or her lawful spouse. However, four Biblical Versions translate "foreign woman" to "adulteress", "woman who commits adultery" and "adulterous woman". The term "foreign woman" is not mentioned therein in the entire Quran.
Eighteen different Biblical versions give many varied and wrong translations when translating " foreign woman" and " the stranger who flatters with her words" In the entire Quran, the term "foreign woman" is not mentioned therein; all women are equal in respect to their rights and responsibilities regardless of race, color, location etc.
Pagan is an irreligious, uncultured, uncivilized or hedonistic person. Also, pagan is an unconverted individual of a people that do not acknowledge the God of the Bible. However, some Biblical versions translate "foreign woman" to "Pagan woman". In the entire Quran, the term "foreign woman" is not mentioned therein; all women are equal in respect to their rights and responsibilities regardless of race, color, location etc.
A Study of 18 different Biblical versions reveals that they could not translate this phrase correctly:" we had betrayed our God and we have taken strange women of the peoples of the land". On the other hand, the term "strange woman" is not mentioned therein in the whole Quran; all women are equal in respect to their rights and responsibilities.
How do the many Biblical versions translate "the peoples of the land" mentioned in the verse of Ezra 10:2; seven out of 18 Biblical versions translate it correctly, however, the strangest translation was in two Biblical versions that translate it to "pagan women of the land". According to the original Hebrew verse, "pagan women" is not the Word of God.
Only four out of 18 Biblical versions translate we have taken correctly; while 13 versions translate we have taken to we have married or by marrying (in six and seven versions respectively). One version translates it to "we settle". Literally, "we have taken" is quite different from "we have married".
In Hebrew, the word pronounced as "No-kh-re-yoat" is the plural of the English word "stranger". Also, the word pronounced as "Za-roat" is the plural of the English word "Foreign". Both "No-kh-re-yoat" and "Za-roat" are used in the Hebrew version when talking about the stranger women and the foreign women respectively.
Eighteen Biblical versions could not translate 12 simple Hebrew words correctly; also, in two Biblical versions "strange women" is translated to "pagan women". In the entire Quran, the term "strange woman" is not mentioned therein; all women are equal in respect to their rights and responsibilities regardless of race, color, location etc.
