Ehrman moving from one podcast hosted by a British woman with enormous glasses to ANOTHER podcast hosted by a British woman with enormous glasses! The man simply will not change! Thinking aloud, I think there's a challenge involved for Javad with this course. He's going to be presenting the Quran and Islamic history to an audience that's (I assume) primarily composed of the usual Ehrman-crowd. That is to say; western, Religious History-interested, non-muslims. People without a background in the Islamic cultural milieu. I've meet plenty of Westerners who say they're interested in studying Quranic/Islamic history but give up because, well, it's essentially so "alien" to them. So unfamiliar and perplexing. There's a big cultural barrier to overcome. Even stuff like the Quran's genre of Divine Speech is a major conceptual hurdle. I'm thinking about people who spout classics like: "I read the two first chapter and then gave up" or "Wait, ibn isn't his middle name?" or "What is a Tafsir and can you eat it?" So it'll be interesting from a pedagogical perspective how he'll balance this boat. But I'm sure they're will also be people from the Academic Quran Reddit community asking him about obscure theories that Nöldeke once scribbled on a napkin in 1900-century Bavaria.

Thank you for setting this up!

Man Terron I can't tell you how interesting this stuff is! What a team you pulled together there. I think being honest and open helps us humans really connect. Perhaps God is watching us get it together he or she is out there.

[@markrichter2053]

Yes that was great. Thanks 😊

The Quran is not interacting creatively with hypothetical biblical texts. Rather the Quran is theologically translating syriac biblical and apokhrypha texts so that arab tribes that have converted to Christianity can have a book of liturgy in their own language to be read aloud during church service. The title ”the Quest for the historical Muhammad” is not a scientific title. Rather there are two quests that historians should engage in: 1) the Quest for the historical Muhammad 2) the Quest for the historical prophet.

[@elnaserm.abdelwahab7591]

no where in the quran there is anything even remotely related to the claim that israelits took over egypt after pharao died in the sea ... I dont know where this guy got this (and article in a magazine i guess) .. this is truly hilarious when you remember that it comes from someone who pretends being able to "train" people on understanding quran ... LoooooooL

[@DrJavadTHashmi]

I think you reveal your non-seriousness when you fail to even engage the academic article that I referenced, which is written by Nicolai Sinai, a towering figure in the field and an Oxford professor of Quranic Studies. Accept the argument or reject it but take it with some seriousness. No amount of “lols” you add to your comment will replace actual argumentation and engagement with critical scholarship.

I teach One Humanitarian Truth Under God, and I'm a prophet of God's New World's Testament that teaches 1 true belief about God and Jesus. Though Jews, Christians and Muslims argue, they are actually arguing over wrong man made beliefs. God's word is a progression because man messes up God's teachings with wrong and divisive interpretations and doctrines. So in reality just like the Gospel no"s" that Jesus taught, which is simply worshipping God through sinless Humanitarian behavior, God sent Gabriel to recite the Quran through Mohammed largely because of the fighting over if Jesus God or not. Muslims have largely misinterpreted Surah 4:157-159 because Gabriel described it from a spirit world perspective not a physical world perspective so Jesus actually didn't die because none of actually die, only our physical bodies die, so we just seem to die Matthew 10:28 because remember the true teachings of God is about holy behavior first. Different divisive man made interpretations and doctrines cause confusion and destroy holy behavior when people fight over different man made interpretations.
