» Brother_Jones - Too many manuscripts

At best all these claims about the sheer number of manuscripts and their faithful reproduction can do is to show that the New Testament as we have it today is what the original authors wrote. It does not follow from this that what they had written is true.

This is a great starting place for most readers who are confused about the number of translations. I agree with your writer that the number of manuscripts which do agree does seem to indicate a valid argument for capturing the original authors' writings. The writings will always be under fire, but I'm not sure how anyone can argue that the Jews believed not their stories and wrote tales of known legends.

i am just an oldtimer for the Lord.
