    And the Old Testament is not recontextualized. It’s just the Torah

    Technically they removed every “Yahweh” in most English versions of the Bible when they turned the Torah into the Old Testament. They just replaced it with “LORD” or “GOD”.

    It’s the one major change, because Christians weren’t supposed to use God’s name. Spelled Yahweh in the Torah and Allah in the Quran.

    And as a result a shit ton of people who consider themselves experts in their own religion, don’t understand it’s all the same God all the Abrahmic religions pray to.

    Similar with Jesus, who is called Isa in the Quran.
