يسوع الناصري، يسوع المسيح، يوحنا المعمدان، يوحنا، لوقا، متى، مرقس Explanation: In the Arabic version of the Bible, Jesus is called YASOO’ يسوع The expression “Jesus of Nazareth” does not appear anywhere in the Bible. The closest expression is found in Matthew 2:23: He went and dwelt in a town called Nazareth, so that what had been spoken through the prophets might be fulfilled, “He shall be called a Nazorean.” Notice the spelling of the last word. The fragment that Matthew quotes from the ‘prophets,” however, is not found anywhere in the Old Testament prophetic books, adding one more puzzling element. In any case, Jesus of Nazareth is known among Arabic-speaking Christians as YASOO’ AL-NASIRIYY يسوع الناصري “Jesus the Christ” and “Christ Jesus” are definitely Biblical expressions, abundantly found in the Pauline corpus, as in Romans 1:7. The Arabic version reads YASOO’ AL-MASEEH يسوع المسيح John the Baptizer (or the Baptist) is found in Luke 7:20. The Arabic version is YOHANNA AL-MA’MADAN يوحنا المعمدان The names of the authors of the four canonical gospels are: Matthew: MATTA متى Mark: MARQUS مرقس Luke: LOOQA لوقا John: YOHANNA يوحنا Fuad The International Version |
