Which is clearly what happened. Most of the stories in the OT are based on myths and fables, and consider what happens to any oral story as it passes generation to generation: it changes with each retelling. Even a rumor will change from one side of town by the time it reaches the other side, often dramatically. Everyone repeating it puts their own biased 'spin' on it, not always deliberately.

Thanks for this story ant its clarification of two religions that call Abram/Abraham its father. I know that Islam considers Jesus to be a Prophet, not savior. And the Jesus of the NT is the Jesus of Paul, the founder of the Church, not the Jesus who lived and taught as a Jew, the Rabbi Jesus.
