The Story of Four Collections of Books

I would like to tell the story of four collections of books.

The first collection is of five books called the Law, written by Moses. The Samaritans, the Jew and the Christians regard this collection as holy books. The first prophecy of God was found in the Law. God promised the serpent that the Seed of the woman will bruise his head (Genesis 3:15).

The next collection of books is called the Prophets. It is a compilation of books written by various prophets. The Jews and Christians recognized this as part of their holy books. The prophecy of the Seed of the woman is now clearer. A virgin shall give birth (Isaiah 7:14). Now we know why it is the Seed of the woman and not of the man.

The third collect of books is the New Testament. Written by the Apostles and followers of Jesus Christ, it is recognized as part of their holy books by the Christians. The prophecy of the Seed of the woman is now fulfilled (Luke 1:26-38).

The final collection contains only one book, the Koran, which is supposed to be God's message to one prophet, Muhammed. It is only recognized by the Muslims.
