3. Two important Prophets - Ibrahim(AS) and Musa(AS).

4. Islam is called(by Allah) the religion of Ibrahim(AS).

9. Muhammad(SAW) -  Ibrahim(AS) - Ismail(AS) - After many generations - Muhammad(SAW).

11. This actually started with Yusuf(AS){Prosperity, nation, moving to Egypt, etc}.

12. This Surah is very intimate, emotional{Touches the heart} ['Ibra - Moves to tears].

13. Christian Scholars try to re-interpret the story of Yusuf(AS) as they want to make Jesus['Isa(AS)] for all humanity.

16. Revelation should always be first, based on that conclusions should be made.

17. Connections between Yusuf(AS) and Musa(AS) are remarkable.
