Then God will say , " Jesus , son of Mary , remember My favour to you and to your mother : how I strengthened you with the holy spirit , so that you could speak to people in childhood and in maturity ; and how I taught you the Book , and wisdom , the Torah and the Gospel ; how by My leave you fashioned from clay the shape of a bird and blew upon it , so that , by My leave , it became a bird , and healed the blind and the leper by My permission , and when you brought forth the dead by My permission ; and how I prevented the Children of Israel from harming you when you came to them with clear signs , when those of them who denied the truth said , " This is sheer magic .
