Deuteronomy 32:15 -
וַיִּשְׁמַ֤ן יְשֻׁרוּן֙ וַיִּבְעָ֔ט שָׁמַ֖נְתָּ עָבִ֣יתָ כָּשִׂ֑יתָ וַיִּטֹּשׁ֙ אֱלֹ֣והַ עָשָׂ֔הוּ וַיְנַבֵּ֖ל צ֥וּר יְשֻׁעָתֹֽו׃
אֱל֣וֹהַ (Elah)
“ELAH” is the name for God, used about 70 times in the Old Testament. It is very similar to Arabic “Allah” or ‘Eelah’. إِلٰهَ Elahh [hla]‘ (Aramaic; el-aw’): corresponding to God. In Hebrew [hwla] ‘elowahh el-o’-ah; probably prolonged (emphat.) from [la]‘el ale; a deity or the Deity:–God, god. Again, when combined with other words, we see different attributes of God. Some examples: Elah Yerush’lem – God of Jerusalem: (Ezra;7:19), Elah Yisrael – God of Israel: (Ezra;5:1), Elah Sh’maya – God of Heaven
Ezra 7:23). Elah Sh’maya V’Arah – God of Heaven and Earth: (Ezra;5:11). Is the Bible not a good enough verifiable reference?
Well yeah i see what you say but the problem is interpretation, it's not as easy as some would like it but this is what happens when every one claims this is the way and that is the way, Christianity is confusing and shouldn't be but maybe everyone wants to be right, right?.
Indeed, everyone wants to think they are right in their way - but this is not what I have been trying to discuss here
I have tried to shed some light on the 'Allah' in Arabic being derived from 'Elah' in Aramaic that it is indeed predates Islamic and was used by the Jews. I have given you your own Bible as a reference, now it is up to you whether you want to accept that or not.
I am not talking about accepting or changing your religion because of this, I am just showing the origins of this.
Thanks for respecting my faith. I really appreciate it. I highly detest persecution of Christians and those who commit it, but you let them be your teachers, for you are no better, for you disrespect me when I have done nothing to you.
TOTALLY! (the true gospel yahshua hamashiach crusades (not the satanic rcc crusades that came later) ...
[h=1] Gevurot 17:16-34Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)
[/h] [SUP]16 [/SUP]And awaiting them in Athens, the ruach of Rav Sha’ul was being distressed within him as he observed the city being full of elilim.
[SUP]17 [/SUP]Therefore, Rav Sha’ul was dialoguing and arguing in the shul with the Yehudim and with the yirei Elohim and also in the marketplace yom yom [street preaching] to the ones who happened to be there.
[SUP]18 [/SUP]Also some of the Apikoros (Epicurean) and Stoic philosophers started conversing with Rav Sha’ul, and some were saying, "What might this babbler wish to say?" And others said, "He seems to be a proclaimer of foreign deities." They said this because of what Rav Sha’ul was proclaiming: Yehoshua and the Techiyas HaMesim.
[SUP]19 [/SUP]And having taken hold of Rav Sha’ul, they brought him to the Areopagus, saying, "Are we able to have da’as of what this new teaching is, which is being spoken by you?
[SUP]20 [/SUP]"For some surprising things you bring to our hearing. Therefore, we desire to have da’as of what these things mean."
[SUP]21 [/SUP]Now all the Athenians and the visiting foreigners and tourists in Athens used to spend time doing nothing but shmoozing about the latest novelty in the news.

If they "borrowed" stuff, maybe they should consider giving it back?
I mean, it HAS been like 1400 or so.
