Answering Questions Through The Holy Qur'an: Why is Jesus called the son of Mary so many times, and the only person given the title “son of mother’s name”, in the Qur’an? (“Jesus the Messiah” vs. “Jesus Barabbas”)

Why is Jesus called the son of Mary so many times, and the only person given the title “son of mother’s name”, in the Qur’an? (“Jesus the Messiah” vs. “Jesus Barabbas”)

4:171 O People of the Book, do not commit excess in your religion and do not say about Allah except the truth. The Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, was but a messenger of Allah and His word which He directed to Mary and a spirit from Him. So believe in Allah and His messengers. And do not say, "Three"; desist - it is better for you. Indeed, Allah is but one God. Glory be to Him, that He (should) have a son for Him. To Him whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. And sufficient is Allah as Disposer of affairs.

(There is a distinction in the Bible between “Jesus, the son of Mary / the Messiah” and “Jesus, son of the father (referring to God)”. The Aramaic name “Barabbas” literally means “son of the father” (referring to God). Ancient manuscripts of Matthew 27:16-17 have the name “Jesus Barabbas”, not just “Barabbas”; (see the translations that are more faithful to the oldest sources: “New International Version” or “contemporary English Version”, or “Good News Translation”, or “Net Bible”); according to the Bible, Pilate, the governor of Judea, asked the crowd which prisoner was to be released “Jesus son of the father” (aka “Jesus Barabbas”), or “Jesus who is called the Messiah” (Matthew 27:17). So, the Gospel explicitly says that there are two characters bearing the same name (Jesus). And it seems that Christians mixed stories of two different characters; Jesus Barabbas blasphemed by bearing such a name “the son of father (referring to God)”, while Jesus the Messiah never said that he was the son of God, because the words “Barabbas / son of the father” and “Messiah / (son of Mary)” are used in Matthew 27:17 to distinguish one Jesus from the other)(Allah knows best)

4:172 Never would the Messiah disdain to be a slave of Allah nor the Angels near. And whoever disdains His worship and is arrogant, then He will gather them towards Him all together.

(Another point is that someone who claims to be the “king of the Jews”, he is going to have to lead the rebellion against Rome. Jesus Barabbas is the one who rebelled against Rome. The punishment for rebellion is crucifixion; so Jesus Barabbas was crucified, not Jesus the Messiah. A proof that Jesus Barabbas was the “king of the Jews”, while “Jesus the Messiah” had not such a title, is that Matthew 2:1-2 say that Jesus, “the king of the Jews”, was born in Bethlehem in Judea, while the earliest Gospel says that Jesus came from Nazareth, so the two accounts are contradictory, but, in fact, they are two different persons bearing the same name (Jesus); so, one Jesus was born in Bethlehem, and another Jesus was born in Nazareth. The Qur’an confirms that Jesus the Messiah is from Nazareth, because the word “Christian” is literally translated as “Nazarene” (e.g. follower/s of the Nazarene). Matthew 2:2 says, “and asked, where is the one who has been born king of the Jews?”. So, Matthew 2:1-2 explicitly say that the one who was born in Bethlehem is the king of the Jews, rather than the one who was born in Nazareth)(According to Matthew 27:11, the governor asked the one who was to be crucified: “are you the king of the Jews? You have said so, Jesus replied”. So, according to the context (Matthew 27:11-13), despite Jews wanted to crucify the Messiah, they took “the King of the Jews” instead, (the one from Bethlehem); Matthew 27:37 confirms that: “above his head they placed the written charge against him: this is Jesus, the king of the Jews”. On the other hand, “Acts 3:6, 4:10, 10:38” confirm that “Jesus of Nazareth” is the Messiah (aka anointed one), rather than the one from Bethlehem)(The “Jesus” who uses the term “my father” and so, in Matthew, is Jesus Barabbas (aka “Jesus son of the father))(Allah knows best)

112:1 Say, "He is Allah, the One. 112:2 Allah, the Eternal, the Absolute. 112:3 He neither begets nor is begotten. 112:4 And nor is there to Him any equivalent."

(The Qur’an only speaks about Jesus the Messiah (aka the son of Mary), so it may be mentioned many times to make clear that it is not speaking about or referring to “Jesus barabbas” in the Bible. And the title “son of Mary” may also be used because Jesus the Messiah had no father, on the other hand, Jesus Barabbas wrongly mentioned the word “father”, as if God were his father)(The miraculous birth of Jesus the Messiah does not make him a deity. Adam was created likewise)(Allah knows best)

5:48 And We have revealed to you the Book in truth, confirming the Book that came before it and as a guardian over it. So judge between them by what Allah has revealed and do not follow their vain desires when the truth has come to you. For each of you We have made a law and a clear way. And if Allah had willed, He would have made you one community [and] but to test you in what He has given you; so race to good. To Allah you will all return, then He will inform you concerning that over which you used to differ.
