→‎Mountain raised above the Children of Israel: Added a new Moses and Aaron Parallel found in Angelika Neuwirth's latest book.

CPO675

→‎The Drowning of Pharaoh: Have added some more late antique parallels from Angelika Neuwirth's latest book. And put the Moses and Pharoah based one's under their own heading (with sub-headings) to tidy up the page.

CPO675

CPO675

Had to remove the Rich man Poor man section as even in Durmaz' book, there's no suggestion that any of the content of the Quranic passage is from late antique homilies, he suggests a direct influence from the Bible (Luke) which is out of scope for this page. Durmaz vaguely shows there was late antique interest in the Luke story, but that's not enough for a section in an already very long article.

CPO675

→‎Late antique Christian Martyrdom: Added more Late Antique Christian Martydom influence noted by Angelika Neuwirth and Nora Schmid.

Lightyears

Making sure readers get the key point of the article

→‎Apocryphal Account

Lightyears

→‎Noah's flood waters overflowed from an oven

Lightyears

Olivier Mongellaz recently explained the oven story. Syriac source (attributed in Syriac Targum to Hippolytus, though undateable) has Ham's wife warned by water gushing up through bread oven. Makes sense. Tafsirs similar. The word translated boiled can just mean welled up in the context of water according to Lane. Gabriel Said-Reynolds was persuaded and seems likely correct.

CPO675

→‎Noah's ark left behind as a sign: Minor change of simply 'Ibid' to the same page citation for neatness.

CPO675

→‎Noah's disbelieving wife: Added another non-biblical late antique parrallel.

Asmith

Rejected the last text change (by CPO675) and restored revision 138528 by Plantfromabove: The linked source cites catholic theology; there does not appear to be any place in the bible or even contemporary apocrypha where Satan/Lucifer is described as a fallen angel, this is later mythology

CPO675

→‎The seven skies/heavens: Added another late antique Judeo-Christian idea not found in the bible here - 'Sinless Angels'

Plantfromabove

Added a better source to "Excerpts from the Protevangelium of James".

CPO675

→‎Late antique Christian Martyrdom: Added the seven heavens parallel not found in the bible but in late antique Judeo-Christian literature, citing Reynolds and a biblical scholar Stephen Wunrow. Also removed duplicate text in Christian Martyrdom section.

CPO675

→‎Moses not suckled by Egyptians: Added a late antique parallel from later commentaries on Moses's poor speech being a speech impediment as found in the Qur'an.

CPO675

→‎The Rich Man and the Poor Man: Added intertextual parallels (and some ideological/theology one's) for Late antique Martyrdom with post biblical Christian writers by Nicolai Sinai.

CPO675

→‎Possible Channels and Circulation of Stories: Added a final parallel, and linked the 'pre-Islamic Arab Religion in Islam' as a main article into a relevant section.

CPO675

→‎Allah keeps the heavens and the birds from falling: Added a small section linking to these parallels that are also found in the hadith.

Couple of extra examples

Lightyears

Lightyears moved page Parallelism Between the Qur'an and Judeo-Christian Scriptures to Parallels Between the Qur'an and Late Antique Judeo-Christian Literature: Renamed as discussed (the page is about the late secondary sources in the Quran rather than Biblical parallels)
