A further refutation is provided in verse 4:158 by God's statement that He caused to ‘rafa'a Prophet Jesus (pbuh) which clearly implies that He raised him to a high station possibly rebuking any inherent arrogant claims that they (the Jews) convicted Jesus (pbuh) as a criminal and as a false Prophet. There is no mention of ‘rafa'a of Prophet Jesus (pbuh) alive in this verse as this would contradict 3:55 above where it is clearly mentioned that he was caused to ‘Tawaffu’ i.e. he was given death.
