This adds to the reader‟s curiosity concerning his status and keeps one interested in his story, and his revered status in Islam. At the crux of the Isa story is how he is caught between two groups. On the one hand, there are the Jews, who in their hatred claim that he is not a messenger and want nothing less than his crucifixion. On the other hand, there are the Christians, who raised him to a level of extreme glorification, claiming he is the son of God and God‟s incarnate. There were among the children of Israel many pious people, and from them was the family of Imran alayhum asalam, as stated in the Quran.
