Listen "Textual Criticism 301: An Examination of Passage"
Episode Synopsis
No matter how much we may desire the opposite, the manuscripts with their variants do exist ��� "in black and white," as it were. It is a childish faith of the highest order to pretend they do not exist. So, what do we do with them? Enemies of the faith make much of them. Those who would love to see the Bible destroyed latch onto one or two variant readings and make sweeping statements about our "corrupt" Bible. A veritable cottage industry has emerged in television networks and publishing houses to discredit the Scriptures. Church leaders must do a better job of training their people. Wallace bemoans that "we've been dumbing down the church for so long [that it] is just a crime and now people are panicking when they hear about this sort of thing." You need not panic ��� you know the facts and how to dig even deeper. In this chapter, we will examine a few of the more famous (infamous?) passages and discover what the evidence has to say.
