Sura 54 Al-Qamar (القمر) The Moon

“The Hour has drawn near, and the moon has split. Yet whenever they see a sign, they turn away and say: ‘Enduring magic.’ They denied and followed their desires, though every matter is set to its appointed end. And there has already come to them of narratives that contain restraint—profound wisdom—yet warnings do not avail. So turn away from them. The Day the Caller will summon to something dreadful, their eyes humbled, they will emerge from the graves like scattered locusts, hastening toward the Caller. The disbelievers will say: ‘This is a difficult Day.’” (54:1–8)

Titus 2, 13 — Distinction Between GOD and the Savior

Among the New Testament passages that have generated the widest range of theological interpretations, Titus 2, 13 holds a particularly significant place. Its phrasing has played a crucial role in later Christological developments, especially within post-Nicene theology. Yet, when examined through a careful philological lens and situated within its original historical context, the verse reveals a structure far more restrained and consistent with early apostolic language.

In this study, Abrahamic Study Hall presents a full interlinear analysis of Titus 2:13, guiding the reader back to the foundational level of the text: its grammar, syntax, and the Semitic mindset underlying New Testament Greek. The phrase “the glory of the great GOD and of our Savior, Jesus Christ” is examined word by word, demonstrating that the conjunction and shared article do not necessarily imply a single referent. Rather, they reflect a common biblical pattern used to associate distinct figures within a shared salvific framework.

Alam (عَالَم)

The Qur’anic term al-ʿālamīn, often rendered as “worlds,” conceals a deeper and unexpectedly human dimension. Its key occurrences reveal a usage that transcends the cosmic realm and instead points to the plurality of peoples, communities, and conscious creatures. Through a rigorous philological approach and engagement with the classical exegetical tradition, this section examines how the Qur’an employs al-ʿālamīn to portray humanity as a whole, offering a universal perspective that reshapes our understanding of GOD’s relationship with all communities on earth. A reflection that reaches beyond conventional translations and guides the reader toward the term’s original and most vivid meaning.
