quran:43:59 –

Jesus was not but a servant upon whom We bestowed favor, and We made him an example for the Children of Israel.  

He, Jesus, is only a servant ˹of Ours˺ on whom We bestowed favour, through prophethood, and We made him, by his ˹coming into˺ being without a father, an exemplar for the Children of Israel, that is to say, like an example because of the wondrousness of his case, one from which one is able to infer God’s power, exalted be He, to do whatever He will.
القرآن:٤٣:٥٩ –

إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا عَبْدٌ أَنْعَمْنَا عَلَيْهِ وَجَعَلْنَاهُ مَثَلًا لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ  

{إن} ما {هو} عيسى {إلا عبد أنعمنا عليه} بالنبوة {وجعلناه} بوجوده من غير أب {مثلا لبني إسرائيل} أي كالمثل لغرابته يستدل به على قدرة الله تعالى على ما يشاء.
