Isaiah 42 seems to have been acquired as a proof chapter for mention of Muhammad in the Bible....
Before I had visited this Forum, I had never come across that reading into Isaiah 42 and perhaps didn't I treat the view as one seriously held by anyone.
I love Isaiah 42 (and the way that 43 develops the themes).Maybe I like it so much because I have had for some time another very clear idea about the time and place the latter part of the chapter is dealing with...
So to @AspiringSoul, @Etagloc , @DesertRose and any of my other Islamic friends, I would be keen for you to set out your understanding of this chapter and (equally importantly, as context is essential) how that understanding flows into the next chapter.
I have my own ideas, but I'm happy to give the floor to those who feel there is a case to see Muhammad prophecied right in the middle of Isaiah...
