Shlama Bar Khela,
Your response made me laugh.
Job's words have nothing to do with embryology. He referred to his sufferings at God's hand in a figure of speech as being curdled as cheese.
Galen of the 2nd century did not understand how human life is formed. If Mohammed repeated Galen, he repeated errors.
I have never accepted the Apocrypha as scripture. Wisdom of Solomon is from the Apocrypha.
As to 2 Kings and Isaiah, we don't know that Isaiah didn't write 2 Kings. He would have been stealing from himself if he had.
I'm not aware that plagiarism even existed in 700 BC as we define it today. The writer of 2 Kings does not name himself, so how could we accuse anyone of plagiarism ? Isaiah has much of the info. contained in 2 Kings 19-25 in his prophecy , chapters 37-39. He may very well have written both books.
What next ? You have conveniently ignored the charge of ignorance on Mohammed's part. He wrote errors about human conception and embryos. The Koran cannot be the word of God.
