Al Fadi and Anthony Rogers continue their discussion about Christ in the book of Psalms. They show how Psalm 1 and 2 are the the preface / introduction to the book. In Psalm 1 the blessed man(Christ) is singular vs. the wicked (sinners) is plural . The law of the Lord is the Torah of the Lord, and His delight is in the Torah. The phrase like a tree is also repeated in Psalm 52; like a green olive tree; an imagery of Eden. In Psalm 92 : 12 talks about the righteous one. Psalm 2 plays off of Psalm one that the wicked will perish because they did not reverence the son; the righteous one.

Al and Anthony Rogers start a new series talking about how David used the Psalms to reveal Christ. The book of Psalms is not a haphazard book , but an organized book that talks about Christ the Messiah. The book is divided into five books to resemble the five book of Moses. There is a hundred names in the book of Psalms about Jesus ; the blessed man, the afflicted, and the tree of life just to name a few. This should give us a new perspective when we read the Psalms; they are all about Jesus not just some.

Mel and Al continue to discuss the origin of the name Mehmet and today they discuss what the Sufis think and believe. They say that Mehmet was the source of light and Adam was created by him. This name was used to refer to God/ Jesus, and later evolved to refer to an Arabian prophet. Mehmet was originally a title and it was used for centuries before it was changed to Mohammad. In other words Mehmet was a reference to God; the highly praised one, and was applied to Jesus on coins.

Mel says that in the ancient Ugaritic language about three thousand years ago the name Muhammad/ Mehmet meant desirable or precious. Also in Sematic it meant Barak; blessed and was meant for the Messiah. Mel also talks about having the Name on coins with crosses on them; for example a 6th century coin in Yemen in 523 A.D. with the name Mehmet in Sabaic script. The term was used for Jesus and then was taken by the Muslims to mean an Arabian prophet.
