Perfectly fits what Bani Israel went through. They knew the truth, rabbis even today believe prophet Muhammad (SAW) is the final messenger or Allah. But they beat around the bush by saying he wasn't sent for them
The term used in the Quran is "kafir" كَافِرٌ (plural "kouffar" كُفَّار), and this term means "the one who covers" (root k-f-r: ك-ف-ر) implying the one who hides the truth while he knows it, and it is a constant reproach of Islam towards the "people of the book" (i.e. Jews and Christians) who know the truth but deny it in particular by falsifying the texts (Torah, Bible and Gospels), and therefore in addition to being unbelievers they are hypocrites and "deniers"
It's important to dissect the origin of these words to give us a deeper understanding. With this, we combine it with the contextual meaning and draw forth insights that otherwise would have been concealed. I've seen tafsirs that highlight this example in particular.
Hey! Maybe you should take a look at this: “…and to warn those who say “Allah has taken a son. They have no knowledge of it, nor had their fathers. Grave is the word that comes out of their mouths; they speak not except a lie.” Quran Surah al Kahf (Chapter 18, verses 4-5, Saheeh International And on Judgment Day, Allah will say, “O Jesus, son of Mary! Did you ever ask the people to worship you and your mother as gods besides Allah?” He will answer, “Glory be to You! How could I ever say what I had no right to say? If I had said such a thing, you would have certainly known it. You know what is hidden within me, but I do not know what is within You. Indeed, You alone are the Knower of all unseen. Quran Surah Maida (Chapter5) Verse 116 Saheeh International “Indeed, the example of Jesus to Allah is like that of Adam. He created Him from dust; then He said to him, “Be,” and he was.” Quran Surah al Imran (Chapter3, verse 59, Saheeh International

How come this video has very less views
In the Quran, its not the meaning of the word its how the word is used in the context...
Mr. Well-Akchully, no! You can define Qur'anic definition per Arabic and the Qur'an. Otherwise there would never have been a book of fiqh or aqeedah
