Key Notes
Jiang reads Muhammad's message as a Moses-like call to recover a promised land given to Abraham's descendants.
In the post-Ezra and Zoroastrianized frame, Moses displaces David as the central figure because Moses is the priestly lawgiver.
The Joseph-to-Moses sequence is used to explain why Israel goes to Egypt, becomes enslaved, and receives a liberating prophet who leads the people back toward the promised land.
Jiang argues Moses helps explain the presence and authority of Egyptian priests in Israel, especially because Moses and Aaron are treated as Egyptian names.
