and bring you as a witness against them? (Surat an-

Nisa':41)
However, Allah reveals in the Qur'an that "There is not
one of the People of the Book who will not believe in him before his
death" only in the case of the Prophet Jesus (pbuh).
Moreover, Allah does not use such an expression in the
Qur'an for any prophet who came before the Prophet Jesus
(pbuh) and in whom the People of the Book believed. No
similar account is offered with regard to the Prophets
Abraham, Solomon, David, Moses, Joseph, or Jacob (peace
be upon them all).
If every member of the People of the Book were to be-

lieve in the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) before his or her own
death, then a similar case would have been revealed with
regard to the other prophets who were sent to them.
However, this expression is employed only in relation to
the Prophet Jesus (pbuh). Therefore, it is another important
proof that the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) differs from other
prophets.
As we have seen, the his in the expression before his
death is evidently the Prophet Jesus (pbuh). It is impossible
to interpret the verse, as some people have, in a way that in-
dicates that "Each member of the People of the Book will be-

lieve in Jesus (pbuh) before they die." Some of the Jews, a
People of the Book, tried to kill the Prophet Jesus (pbuh) be-
cause they did not believe in him. They later continued in
their unbelief and believed that they had killed him.
