read chapter 10.
"And when there came unto them (the Jews) a Scripture from Allah,
confirming that in their possession though before that they were invoking
Allah (for the coming of Muhammad, the last Messiah) in order to gain
victory over those who disbelieved, then when there came unto them that
which they had recognized, they disbelieved in it. So let the curse of Allah
be on the disbelievers"
The noble Qur'an, Al-Baqarah(2):89
The Dead Sea Scrolls make mention of many more quite amazing and
illuminating prophesies and parallels with the teachings of the Qur'an and
Islam. There are also many parallels with the historical series of events
presented in this book, such as the reference to the "seekers of smooth
things" (simplifying the law of the religion) which sound amazingly
similar to the description of Paul and his followers who "simplified" the
religion of Jesus after his departure and removed all obligation from it all
the while claiming that his authority came directly from "visions" of Jesus
(pbuh).
He is even quoted, while preaching this removal of obligation and
the law, as saying
"But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled eve through his
subtlety, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in
Christ"
2 Corinthians 11:3 (also see 2 Corinthians 1:12, Romans 3:28, etc.)

for we need to know who you are, for the quieting of our nation.' Jesus
answered 'I am Jesus son of Mary, of the seed of David, a man who is
mortal and fears God, and I seek that God be given honor and glory.' The
priest answered, 'In the book of moses it is written that our God must send
us the Messiah, who shall come to announce to us that which God willed,
and shall bring to the world His mercy. Therefore, I pray, tell us the truth,
are you the Messiah of God whom we expect?' Jesus answered 'It is true
that God has so promised, but indeed I am not he, for he was made before
me, and shall come after me.' The priest answered, 'By your words and
signs at any rate we believe you to be a prophet and a holy one of God. I
pray in the name of all Judea and Israel that you, for love of God, should
tell us how the Messiah will come.' Jesus answered, 'As God lives, in
whose presence my soul stands, I am not the Messiah whom all of the
tribes of the earth expect, even as God promised to our father Abraham
saying: "In your seed will I bless all of the tribes of the earth" But when
God shall take me away from the world, Satan will raise again this
accursed sedition, by making the impious believe that I am God the Son of
God. At such time, my words and my doctrine shall be contaminated so
much that scarcely shall there remain thirty faithful ones. At that time, God
will have mercy upon the world and will send his messenger for whom He
