It is well known that the last Prophet Muhammad is mentioned in full details in the Torah; that is why many Jewish rabbis like Abdullah ben Salam embraced Islam.
Allah commanded His Prophet Muhammad, to ask the Jews about his matter and how he is mentioned in their Scriptures. Muhammad did that many times.
However, their resentful envy toward Muhammad drove them to disbelieve in Allah and His Messenger.
The Jews said ‘Allah has never sent down any Scripture from heaven.’
Allah revealed: Say unto the Jews who speak thus: Who revealed the Book which Moses brought, a light and guidance for mankind?
It is also narrated that an obese rabbi (Malik ibn al-Sayf) went to argue with the Prophet about his prophethood.
Muhammad said to him: ‘I plead with you by Him who has revealed the Torah to Moses, do you not find in the Torah that Allah loathes the obese rabbi?’
[In the genuine Torah that was revealed unto the Prophet Moses, an obese rabbi is a symbol indicates that such rabbi eats much and gives the needy a little]
Hearing that, the obese rabbi was horrified and he has got angry then he said: ‘O Muhammad has Allah revealed a Scripture to you?
The Prophet answered: ‘Yes, He did!’
The obese rabbi said: ‘By Allah, Allah has never sent down any Scripture from heaven. Allah has never sent anything to any human being’
The obese rabbi was shocked, when Muhammad’s companions exclaimed: ‘Woe unto you, not even to Moses!’
And so Allah, revealed Ayah 6:91; it says:
They do not estimate Allah its true estimation when they say: Allah has naught revealed unto a human being.
See the interpretation of the verse 6:91 in the next article.
Also, the interested reader may find a lot of articles about ‘Muhammad in the Bible” and the story of Jewish rabbis, Abdullah ben Salam who embraced Islam

The verses 6:91 in two translations
QARIB:
They have not valued Allah with his true value, when they said ‘Allah has never sent down anything to a mortal. ‘Say: ‘who, then sent down the book which Moses brought, a light and guidance for people? You put it on to parchments, revealing them and hiding much, you have now been taught what neither you nor your fathers knew before! ‘Say: ‘Allah. ‘Then leave them, playing in their plunging.
SHAKIR:
And they do not assign to Allah the attributes due to him when they say: Allah has not revealed anything to a mortal. Say: who revealed the book which musa brought, a light and guidance to men, which you make into scattered writings which you show while you conceal much? and you were taught what you did not know, (neither) you nor your fathers. Say: Allah then leave them sporting in their vain discourses
