A comparative study of this incident as given in the Bible and the Talmud will show that the Quran does not copy the stories from these books, but gives its own version in order to portray the Messengers in their true glory and dignity. According to the Bible, when God said to Moses (peace be upon him) that He would send him to Pharaoh, Moses (peace be upon him) replied: Who am I, that I should go unto Pharaoh, and that I should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt? (Exodus 3: 11). God persuaded and encouraged Moses (peace be upon him) by giving him signs but he was still reluctant and said: O my Lord, send, I pray thee, by the hand of him whom thou wilt send. (Exodus 4: 13). And the Talmud goes even further than this and says that there was an argument between God and Moses (peace be upon him) for seven days that he should become a Prophet but Moses (peace be upon him) did not accept the offer. At this God was angry with him and so made his brother Aaron (peace be upon him) a partner in his Prophethood. Moreover, He deprived the descendants of Moses (peace be upon him) of the office of priesthood and bestowed it on the descendants of Aaron (peace be upon him). These two versions depict Allah to be suffering from human weaknesses and Prophet Moses (peace be upon him) from inferiority complex.

* Tanrı'nın Musa'ya dikte ettirdiği sözler Musa'ya tekrarlattırılmadan Firavunun o sözlere verdiği cevaba geçiliyor. Kuran'ın anlatım dili, okuyucu tarafından doldurulabilecek boşluklarla veya ilişkilerle doludur. Böylece hem istenmeyen tekrarlardan kaçınılmış oluyor ve hem de okuyucunun beyni harekete geçiriliyor. Kuran, pasif ve beyince tembel okuyucuyu sevmez. * Tembel okuyucu da Kuran'dan gereken lezzeti alamaz. Bu anlatım biçiminin bir başka örneği için 12:83 ayetine bakınız.
