I watched the video, but I have a few questions of some it's claims.....
Video is here
The miracles of the pyramid texts
There are a few problems...
The Pyramid Texts are from the old kingdom, around a millennia before Ramses/Firaun
- The other examples with "heaven and earth weeping" are for Gods, not human kings.
- And 3, Heaven and Earth weeping could just be a common phrase across all cultures, not specific for Egypt.
Pharaoh vs King
This one is much better. The claim is that the Bible makes a historical error by calling the ruler of Egypt pharaoh. And the Quran corrects that. Problem is, what is the chronology for this???? They base this off the story of Yusuf (AS), but secular historians say Joseph didn't exist (Yeah.......). Our chronology for when Joseph and Musa (AS) were came from the Bible and their historians, which I am confused about, because isn't the Bible corrupted????
One more question, the Quran treats Firaun as a name, not a title (Pharaoh). Why isn't it Al-Firaun (The Pharaoh???).
Size of the Exodus
Actually a good point, moving on.
Capital Punishment
This is less of a miracle and more of a good response to a claim by anti-muslim apologists that the Quran does not mention crucifixion, The reason why this may not be a miracle because the Bible also says they people got crucified
Pharaoh of Musa
One problem with this timeframe is the Merneptah Steele, which they use. The Steele (5 Years after Ramses 2nd, who is claimed to be Firaun in the video), says that the Israelites were in Canaan, but it took 40 years for Musa to get to Canaan.
Could Ramses be Firaun????
The evidence is rather weak. Extravagence is common for every evildoer in the Quran/Bible. Pharoah's divinity seems to be mentioned somewhat in the Bible
Pharoah's body Preserved
Most detractors use the Merchant man argument and say he knew mummification from Egyptian merchants. The guys behind many prophets one message make a good point that the body of Firaun could be grave robbed or destroyed. And the best in the Bible Is that Firaun/Pharoah and his was found dead on the shore. This one seems to be pretty good.
Yusuf (AS) and Silver Coins
Translation is varied, some simply say pieces of silver (Which is their claim), and some say Dirhams (Which is historically innacurate), see here for more. So you can't get anything out of this than, Yusuf was sold for a low price, not a miracle or an error. As for the error thing, there is a good response here
Haman????
Has been debunked by Egyptologists (It's in German but use Google Translate), and even the guys behind Islamic Awareness (The source which the guys behind Many Prophets One Message use), admitted this is wrong (To see it, crtl f, Jurgen and you will find it).
This is my thoughts on the video
