....how does that differ from the jewish torah or the christian ...
Neither is considered a deity by Christians or Jews.
John 1:1
Mostly true. In both cases (the Torah or Bible), you need the text to lay out the landscape. In the case of the Bible, no one made a rule that you couldn’t change the wording, edit it, or even add onto it. A fair amount of the Old Testament comes from Torah material. One might imagine some hostility existing when a second crowd came up and added the New Testament onto the back of this document. In the existing culture, there isn’t any rule to hinder even the existent or addition of a 3rd testament onto the back of the first two.
In the case of the Koran, nothing can be edited, or added. If some angel did appear to one million Muslims today, giving out 40 additional pages of guidance....well, because of the rules in place, the forty pages could not be added because there weren’t going to be any other visitations or additions.
“Neither is considered a deity by Christians or Jews.”
True. And Muslims don’t consider the Qur’an to be a deity either. So...?
That’s the reason I always think hypocrisy when I see Muslims call Christians “the people if the book.” They’re actually the ones who worship their book. They don’t let anyone touch it with unclean hands, let the unbeliever touch it, always keep it wrapped up in cloths.
