why would you point to an entry on wikipedia detailing the deadsea scrolls as defending the 'accuracy' of the old testament ?
Why? Someone brought up the notion that what we currently have is a copy of a copy of a copy, implying that we can't possibly trust that what we currently have is accurate to the original source.
The dead sea scrolls point to the accuracy of our current scriptures. Something written down more than two thousand years ago lines up almost perfectly with current texts.
And by almost perfectly, I mean that, a word off here or there. No inserted content, no changing of meaning.
