Rebekah's story is a clear and indisputable proof that the Bible's accounts are full of hoaxes!
The sections of this article are:
1- Rebekah's story, along with her two sons and
her husband Isaac.
2- The corruption is quite clear!
3- So was it, after all, Isaac or Ishmael who was to be sacrificed in
Genesis 22?
4- Conclusion.
1- Rebekah's story, along with her two sons and her husband Isaac:
We first learn about Rebekah having a personal encounter with Allah Almighty:
Genesis 25
21 Isaac prayed to the LORD on behalf of his wife,
because she was barren. The LORD answered his prayer, and
his wife Rebekah became pregnant.
22 The babies jostled each other within her, and she said, "Why is this
happening to me?" So she went to inquire of the LORD.
23 The LORD said to her,
"Two nations are in your womb,
and two peoples from within you
will be separated;
one people will be stronger
than the other,
and the older will serve the
younger."
24 When the time came for her
to give birth, there were twin boys in her womb.
25 The first to come out was red, and his whole body was like a hairy garment;
so they named him Esau.
26 After this, his brother came out, with his hand grasping Esau's heel; so he
was named Jacob [f]
(deceiver; see footnote below).
Isaac was sixty years old when Rebekah gave birth to them.
27 The boys grew up, and Esau became a skillful hunter, a man of the open
country, while Jacob was a quiet man, staying among the tents.
28 Isaac, who had a taste for wild game, loved Esau,
but Rebekah loved Jacob.
Footnote:
f. Genesis 25:26 Jacob
means he grasps the heel (figuratively, he deceives ).
Here we see that Rebekah had received a Quran (Divine Revelation) from Allah Almighty regarding her coming offsprings: what they will be like, and how many of them are there. And if you read throughout the book of Genesis, starting from chapter 20 and up, you'll see that GOD Almighty was appearing quite frequently to Abraham and others as an Angel and up close and personal. So certainly, such encounter should be quite awesome to the person! I mean, how many of us today, out of all of the 7.0 billion humans that exist on earth today, have had such an experience with GOD Almighty where GOD Almighty just appeared as an Angel and spoke in person, one to one, to him or her? Definitely none of us 7.0 billions! Yet, Rebekah was among those who spoke directly with Allah Almighty up close and personal. Keep that in mind as we read the next set of verses from Genesis 27 and 28:
Genesis 27
Jacob Gets Isaac's Blessing
1 When Isaac was old and his eyes were so weak that he could no longer see,
he called for Esau his older son
and said to him, "My son." "Here I am," he answered.
2 Isaac said, "I am now an old man and don't know the day of my death.
3 Now then, get your weapons—your quiver and bow—and go out to the open country
to hunt some wild game for me.
4 Prepare me the kind of tasty food I like and bring it to me to eat, so that I
may give you my blessing before I die."
5 Now Rebekah was listening
as Isaac spoke to his son Esau. When Esau left for the open country to hunt game
and bring it back,
6 Rebekah said to her son Jacob, "Look, I overheard your father
say to your brother Esau,
7 'Bring me some game and prepare me some tasty food to eat, so that I may give
you my blessing in the presence of the LORD before I die.'
8 Now, my son, listen carefully and do what I tell you:
9 Go out to the flock and bring me two choice young goats, so I can prepare some
tasty food for your father, just the way he likes it.
10 Then take it to your father to eat, so that he may give you his blessing
before he dies."
11 Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, "But my brother Esau is a hairy man, and
I'm a man with smooth skin.
12 What if my father touches me? I would appear to be tricking him and would
bring down a curse on myself rather than a blessing."
13 His mother said to him,
"My son, let the curse fall on me.
Just do what I say; go and get them for me."
14 So he went and got them and brought them to his mother, and she prepared some
tasty food, just the way his father liked it.
15 Then Rebekah took the best clothes of Esau her older son, which she had in
the house, and put them on her younger son Jacob.
16 She also covered his hands and the smooth part of his neck with the
goatskins.
17 Then she handed to her son Jacob the tasty food and the bread she had made.
18 He went to his father and said, "My father." "Yes, my son," he answered. "Who
is it?"
19 Jacob said to his father, "I am Esau your firstborn. I have done as you told
me. Please sit up and eat some of my game so that you may give me your
blessing."
20 Isaac asked his son, "How did you find it so quickly, my son?" "The LORD your
God gave me success," he replied.
21 Then Isaac said to Jacob, "Come near so I can touch you, my son, to know
whether you really are my son Esau or not."
22 Jacob went close to his father Isaac, who touched him and said, "The voice is
the voice of Jacob, but the hands are the hands of Esau."
23 He did not recognize him,
for his hands were hairy like those of his brother Esau; so he blessed him.
24 "Are you really my son Esau?" he asked. "I am," he replied.
25 Then he said, "My son, bring me some of your game to eat, so that I may give
you my blessing." Jacob brought it to him and he ate; and he brought some wine
and he drank.
26 Then his father Isaac said to him, "Come here, my son, and kiss me."
27 So he went to him and kissed him. When Isaac caught the smell of his clothes,
he blessed him and said,
"Ah, the smell of my son is
like the smell of a field that the LORD has blessed.
28 May God give you of heaven's dew and of earth's richness— an abundance of
grain and new wine.
29 May nations serve you and peoples bow down to you. Be lord over your
brothers, and may the sons of your mother bow down to you. May those who curse
you be cursed and those who bless you be blessed."
30 After Isaac finished
blessing him and Jacob had scarcely left his father's presence, his brother Esau
came in from hunting.
31 He too prepared some tasty food and brought it to his father. Then he said to
him, "My father, sit up and eat some of my game, so that you may give me your
blessing."
32 His father Isaac asked him, "Who are you?" "I am your son," he answered,
"your firstborn, Esau."
33 Isaac trembled violently and
said, "Who was it, then, that hunted game and brought it to me? I
ate it just before you came and I blessed him—and indeed he will be blessed!"
34 When Esau heard his father's words, he burst out with a loud and bitter cry
and said to his father, "Bless me—me too, my father!"
35 But he said, "Your brother came
deceitfully and took your blessing."
36 Esau said, "Isn't he rightly named Jacob? He has deceived me these two times:
He took my birthright, and now he's taken my blessing!" Then he asked, "Haven't
you reserved any blessing for me?"
37 Isaac answered Esau, "I
have made him lord over you and have made all his relatives his servants,
and I have sustained him with grain and new wine. So what can I possibly do for
you, my son?"
38 Esau said to his father, "Do you have only one blessing, my father? Bless me
too, my father!" Then Esau wept aloud.
39 His father Isaac answered him,
"Your dwelling will be away
from the earth's richness, away from the dew of heaven above.
40 You will live by the sword and you will serve your brother. But when you grow
restless, you will throw his yoke from off your neck."
Jacob Flees to Laban
41 Esau held a grudge against Jacob because of the blessing his father had given
him. He said to himself, "The days of mourning for my father are near; then I
will kill my brother Jacob."
42 When Rebekah was told what her older son Esau had said, she sent for her
younger son Jacob and said to him, "Your brother Esau is consoling himself with
the thought of killing you.
43 Now then, my son, do what I say: Flee at once to my brother Laban in Haran.
44 Stay with him for a while until your brother's fury subsides.
45 When your brother is no longer angry with you and forgets what you did to
him, I'll send word for you to come back from there. Why should I lose both of
you in one day?"
46 Then Rebekah said to Isaac, "I'm disgusted with living because of these
Hittite women. If Jacob takes a wife from among the women of this land, from
Hittite women like these, my life will not be worth living."
Genesis 28
1
So Isaac called for Jacob
and blessed him and commanded him:
"Do not marry a Canaanite woman.
2 Go at once to Paddan Aram, to the house of your mother's father Bethuel. Take
a wife for yourself there, from among the daughters of Laban, your mother's
brother.
3 May God Almighty bless you
and make you fruitful and increase your numbers until you become a community of
peoples.
4 May he give you and your descendants the blessing given to Abraham, so that
you may take possession of the land where you now live as an alien, the land God
gave to Abraham."
5 Then Isaac sent Jacob on
his way, and he went to Paddan Aram, to Laban son of Bethuel the Aramean, the
brother of Rebekah, who was the mother of Jacob and Esau.
6 Now Esau learned that Isaac had blessed
Jacob and had sent him to Paddan Aram to
take a wife from there, and that when he blessed him he commanded him, "Do not
marry a Canaanite woman,"
7 and that Jacob had obeyed his father and mother and had gone to Paddan Aram.
8 Esau then realized how displeasing the Canaanite women were to his father
Isaac;
9 so he went to Ishmael and married Mahalath, the
sister of Nebaioth and daughter of
Ishmael son of Abraham, in addition to the wives he already had.
There are several important notes to mention here:
1- Notice how Rebekah didn't seem to care at all about GOD Almighty, despite the fact that she supposedly had a direct conversation with Him in the past. Her statement "let the curse be upon me" clearly proves that she never even had any encounter with GOD Almighty to begin with, and that the Bible's account regarding her speaking with GOD Almighty is clearly false.
2- Rebekah's statement also shows that she herself also strongly believed that Isaac never had any Divine Revelation sent to him, nor did he ever speak with GOD Almighty nor received any Word from Him. That is why she took his coming "blessing" so carelessly.
3- Also, what kind of a blessing was Isaac's to Jacob that was based on a lie and deceit?
Why would GOD Almighty approve of such corrupt blessing from Isaac and fulfill its contents?
Does GOD Almighty now support and carry out lies?
Or is the Bible itself full of lies on GOD Almighty?
4- Isaac twice blessed Jacob and made him above his brother and all of their relatives. Yet, the blessing was based on a lie, and was only meant for Esau.
5- Why didn't GOD Almighty appear to Isaac warning him about Jacob's and Rebekah's plot, since He, the Almighty, supposedly have done it many times before with Abraham and others? Why now? Why allow for such a serious blessing that impacted the fate of many generations to come be based on a conspiracy and a lie? This is clearly a text that would be generated from satan, not GOD Almighty. Satan is responsible for much of history's evil plots and unfortunate consequences and results that many generations of humanity have suffered from.
6- The corruption of the Bible is quite clear!
2- The corruption is quite clear!
There is no question that the pornographic bible's (the book that literally sings praises about women's vaginas and breasts taste like "wine") historical accounts are all corrupt, full of hoaxes and are extremely doubtful. That is why Allah Almighty in the Glorious Quran Said:
"O Apostle! let not those grieve thee, who race each other into unbelief: (whether it be) among those who say "We believe" with their lips but whose hearts have no faith; or it be among the Jews,- men who will listen to any lie,- will listen even to others who have never so much as come to thee. They change the words from their (right) times and places: they say, 'If ye are given this, take it, but if not, beware!' If any one's trial is intended by God, thou hast no authority in the least for him against God. For such - it is not God's will to purify their hearts. For them there is disgrace in this world, and in the Hereafter a heavy punishment. (The Noble Quran, 5:41)"
"But because of their breach of their covenant, We cursed them, and made their hearts grow hard; they change the words from their (right) places and forget a good part of the message that was sent them, nor wilt thou cease to find them- barring a few - ever bent on (new) deceits: but forgive them, and overlook (their misdeeds): for God loveth those who are kind. (The Noble Quran, 5:13)"
"Know they not Allah Knoweth what they conceal and what they reveal? And there are among them illiterates, who know not the Book, but (see therein their own) desires, and they do nothing but conjecture. Then woe to those who write the Book with their own hands, and then say: 'This is from Allah,' To traffic with it for a miserable price! Woe to them for what their hands do write, and for the gain they make thereby. (The Noble Quran, 2:77-79)"
The above points present solid and indisputable proofs that the Bible's accounts are indeed corrupt and doubtful. They were written to only serve the followers of satan, who are many of the Jews (see John 8 below), and to change and corrupt the Holy Words of Allah Almighty. That is why Allah Almighty Sent down the Glorious Quran to the Arabs. They were fresh, had no previous Divine Revelations, and they were ready for a new Prophet. The Jews were simply too corrupt and their texts are worthless.

John 8
The Children of the Devil
42 Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came
from God and now am here. I have not come on my own; but he sent me.
43 Why is my language not clear to you? Because you are unable to hear what I
say.
44 You belong to your father, the
devil, and you want to carry out your father's desire. He was a
murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in
him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the
father of lies.
Allah Almighty also Said in the Glorious Quran:
"But because of their breach of their covenant, We cursed them, and made their hearts grow hard; they change the words from their (right) places and forget a good part of the message that was sent them, nor wilt thou cease to find them- barring a few - ever bent on (new) deceits: but forgive them, and overlook (their misdeeds): for God loveth those who are kind. (The Noble Quran, 5:13)"

3- So was it, after all, Isaac or Ishmael who was to be sacrificed in Genesis 22?
First of all, and before we start, according to Islam, we believe that Ishmael was the son to be sacrificed, not Isaac, since Ishmael was much older than Isaac. But when we read in Genesis 22, we see that GOD Almighty wanted to test Abraham by having him offer his son, Isaac, to be sacrificed for GOD Almighty. GOD Almighty even supposedly said that Isaac was, metaphorically, Abraham's only son:
Genesis 22
2 Then God said, "Take
your son, your only son,
Isaac, whom you love, and go to the
region of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on one of the
mountains I will tell you about."
There is clear bias against the son of the Egyptian woman, Hagar, in this corrupt text. It is clear that the text was written to falsely put a group of people above the other. This is not the GOD Almighty of the Universe, especially in light of the fact that the whole Bible's books and gospels' accounts are all corrupt and had been altered very badly by men.
GOD Almighty then supposedly calls off the sacrifice and puts a lamb for Abraham to sacrifice instead of Isaac. After GOD Almighty was pleased with Abraham's True Faith, GOD Almighty supposedly then swore in His Holy Name and Said:
Genesis 22
15 The angel of the LORD called to Abraham from heaven a second time
16 and said, "I swear by myself, declares the LORD, that because you have done
this and have not withheld your son, your only son,
17 I will surely bless you and make your descendants
as numerous as the stars in
the sky and as the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will take possession
of the cities of their enemies,
18 and through your offspring all nations on
earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed me."
On a side note, it is interesting to know that the Jews, throughout all of history, had always been an extreme minority among all nations of the earth. In fact, they are so few in numbers, that they've always had this paranoia and fear that they might just go extinct one day. So most certainly, the offsprings of Isaac, who are what are known as the People of Israel, are not as numerous as the stars in the sky and the sand in the seashore. Christians might try to counter this by saying that Christianity and Judaism, combined, are the offspring of Jacob. My response to this is as follows:
1- This is not true, because Christianity today is overwhelmingly and mostly made up of people who are not only not from Isaac's bloodline, but are also outside the Middle East altogether. The Isaacs and add on top of them the Ishmaelite Christians and Jews are close to nil in numbers when compared to the total Christian population world-wide.
2- Ishmaelite Christians (Arabs Christians) exist today.
3- Again, Christians from Isaac's bloodline are near nil in numbers when compared to the total Christian population world-wide.
4- The biblical verses clearly speak about descendents of Isaac. Christianity is not just limited to Isaac.
5- Only Judaism today and throughout history declares to be from Isaac and his bloodline.
The descendants will take possession of the cities of their armies:
Furthermore, let us shed some light upon the following quote from above:
"...Your descendants will take possession of the cities of their enemies..." (Genesis 22:17)
The following points are important to know:
1- All of the Jews' wars were limited to Palestine and in Palestine.
2- They certainly, again, were not as numerous in numbers "as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore".
3- The Muslims, however, did spread throughout the whole world, and stretched from the borders of France all the way to the borders of China, and they were deep in Asia, Europe and Africa. They are descendents of Abraham, but not from Isaac. They are Ishmaelite.
4- Could it be that because the Bible is corrupt, those who altered the original accounts forgot to alter this piece?
5- Again, the Jews were too limited in numbers, conquering and conquests.
But anyway, be as it may regarding the number of the Jews, Christians and the Muslims throughout history and throughout the world, my question here is this:
In light of the fables and historical errors above, can we really trust the account about Abraham and Isaac to be true?
The answer is clearly no. Again, keep in mind that Allah Almighty Said in the Glorious Quran:
"O Apostle! let not those grieve thee, who race each other into unbelief: (whether it be) among those who say "We believe" with their lips but whose hearts have no faith; or it be among the Jews,- men who will listen to any lie,- will listen even to others who have never so much as come to thee. They change the words from their (right) times and places: they say, 'If ye are given this, take it, but if not, beware!' If any one's trial is intended by God, thou hast no authority in the least for him against God. For such - it is not God's will to purify their hearts. For them there is disgrace in this world, and in the Hereafter a heavy punishment. (The Noble Quran, 5:41)"
"But because of their breach of their covenant, We cursed them, and made their hearts grow hard; they change the words from their (right) places and forget a good part of the message that was sent them, nor wilt thou cease to find them- barring a few - ever bent on (new) deceits: but forgive them, and overlook (their misdeeds): for God loveth those who are kind. (The Noble Quran, 5:13)"

4- Conclusion:
There is no doubt that the Bible is a corrupt book. It is not the True and Pure Holy Word of Allah Almighty, nor is it even a reliable historical account. It is a book that is filled with corrupt and bias history for the Jews, who are notorious in changing and corrupting the words from their "times and places" as Allah Almighty Declared in the Glorious Quran (5:41).
While this article focused primarily on the accounts of Abraham and his sons and some of their sons and some of their wives, but in reality, the proofs in this article apply against the entire Bible as a solid proof, from among countless other solid proofs, that the Bible is indeed a book full of falsehood.
Trinity is also one of history's biggest lies. Jesus was never called Yahweh in the entire Bible, and the Bible's corrupt books and gospels, according to its own theologians commentaries, were:
Such falsehood can not be from GOD Almighty, nor the Divine Truth and Word of GOD Almighty. Islam is the Divine Truth of GOD Almighty. I strongly recommend visiting the following links:
I also want to end this rebuttal with the following verses from the Holy Quran, and the Bible's Old and New Testaments:
"Say: He is God, the One and Only; God, the Eternal, Absolute; He begetteth not, nor is He begotten; And there is none like unto Him. (The Noble Quran, 112:1-4)"
"Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one. (From the NIV Bible, Deuteronomy 6:4)"
"The most important one," answered Jesus, "is this: 'Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. (From the NIV Bible, Mark 12:29)"
""Why do you call me good?" Jesus answered. "No one is good–except God alone." (From the NIV Bible, Mark 10:18)"
"God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill? (From the NIV Bible, Numbers 23:19)"
Indeed, Jesus Christ, the man, is only a Messenger from Allah Almighty, and he was never crucified.
May Allah Almighty enable you to see the Light and the Truth of Islam. And may Allah Almighty send His Peace, Mercy and Blessings upon our beloved and blessed Prophet, Teacher and Role Model, Muhammad. Ameen.
