Name of Jesus in Codex 151 is "Yassoua" which is the Arabic name for Jesus used by Arab Christians all over the world.
To those who are asking about Bismallah - there is no evident that Arab Christians borrowed it from Muslims. There is sufficient evidence that Muslims borrowed it from Arabs who belonged to various Christian sects during the dawn of Islam.
The evidence of using Yassoua in Codex 151 is found in the pictures of the Codex 151 that we have and the accurate publishing of it by Dr. Harvey Staal. You can buy his book from Amazon
Can you confirm for me what a colleague told me that the Codex 151 actually has the bismillah written on it? Is that true or false? I'm curious. Thanks!
Edward - Codex 151 has the word Yassoua not Isa which confirms that Arab Christians prior to the dawn of Islam used the same name as the Bible. Yashua
Dave Ray - yes it is true that the Codex 151 has a the Bismalla on the start of each book of the NT. We were amazed that traditional Arab Christians were using it even before the dawn of Islam. Many believe that it refers to "Trinity" - Islam simply borrowed it from them
Could you provide proof using the oldest Arabic manuscripts?
