Bible Translated into Persian

JOSEPH WOLFF, in his notes written in 1831, gives the following interesting account of how the Bible was given to some of the Persians: “Mullah Meshiakh is in possession of a defense of the Koran, written by Hajee Omeen, a Jewish renegade. He has translated the whole Bible into Persian, with Persian-Jewish characters and notes, in order to convince the Jews that Moses and the prophets have predicted that both Jesus and Mohammed should be sent by God with prophetic power.”
