Muslims and Christians agree and disagree about concerning the personage of Jesus. Among the few areas of agreement between the two, both the Quran and the Bible claim that Jesus came into the world through Mary, a virgin. While he came from Mary’s womb, it was not through intercorse but by the work of God. In the Quran, when Mary encounters one of Allah’s angels, Mary responds to his message, “‘My Lord, how can I have a son when no man has touched me?’ {The angel] said, ‘This is how God creates what
Ancient Roman sculpture Laocoon and his two sons and the renaissance sculpture of the Pieta have similar and different features when compared with each other. In Michelangelo Pieta we see so much small details which make this sculpture magnificent. In the pieta we see a lot of drapery and folds in the dress that Mary’s wearing, this gives it a more realistic element.

The gospel of Luke and John are gospels about Jesus and John the Baptist. They have several differences and similarities. The Gospel of Luke describes the conception and birth of John the Baptist and Jesus while the gospel of Luke describes their life after birth. Summaries, variances, and connections of these two gospels are discussed below. The Gospel of Luke focuses on the conception and the birth of John the Baptist and Jesus. It also provides the histories of Elizabeth and Zachariah. It also

The structure of the Gospel of Luke begins with the prologue, depicting the purpose of the intended account. It follows with the infancy narratives; the Saviour’s birth and youth; His baptism and temptation; His message and mission; the journey to Jerusalem; and His death and resurrection.

the Gospels according to Matthew and that according to Luke, Jesus’ birth and childhood is narrated. While both of these accounts mention Jesus as not only being the son of Joseph and his virgin wife Mary but also the Son of God, they also have numerous differences between the two.

It is not the flesh, nor the blood that makes Jesus legally heir and gives Him the right to the throne of David, but being a son through Joseph 's marriage does. That is why we find in Luke 2:41,48 where Joseph is called one of Christ 's parents and also the father. Mary was a virgin to whom was born Christ.
