MARY, A SISTER OF AARON?
The verse in question is;
يَٰٓأُخْتَ هَٰرُونَ مَا كَانَ أَبُوكِ ٱمْرَأَ سَوْءٍۢ وَمَا كَانَتْ أُمُّكِ بَغِيًّۭا

Jesus Begotten?
To create is divine, to reproduce is human. —Man Ray, Originals Graphic Multiples
Christian laity have accepted the doctrines of Jesus being of divine sonship and
”begotten, not made” for so long that these doctrines have largely fallen from scrutiny.
Until three centuries ago, dissenting views were suppressed by means sufficiently horrific

And in the case of Jesus, a baby was God’s determination that revelation should
go on.
A few “progressive” churches have made a ruckus by questioning the virgin birth.
They shouldn’t. It happened. At least, that’s the mainstream Christian and Islamic
opinion.
The Christian viewpoint is well known, although the lack of convincing biblical
detail is frustrating to many. The Islamic teaching is that just as God created Adam from
nothing more than clay, He created Jesus without biological father as a sign to the
