Witnefs againfi our neighbours, let them be as bad as they may in other things. I have never, as yet, feen nor read any thing, that has convinced me that they have wilfully corrupted any one paffage in the facred text, no not that celebrated one in Pf xxii. I 6' Their copiers indeed may have made miflakes in tranfcribing, which are common to all writings; and the jewr meeting with a various reading, they may have preferred one to another, which made moi't for their own fenti ments; nor is this to be wondered at, nor are they to be blamed for it. It lies upon us to rectify the miftake, and confirm the true reading.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of the Hebrew Bible, taking a critical look at its history, preservation, and the evolution of its text. The author meticulously examines arguments that the Hebrew text has been corrupted by the Jews, presenting counterarguments based on historical evidence and the writings of influential figures like Philo and Josephus. The book also explores the intriguing role of the Masoretes, a group of scholars who meticulously studied the Hebrew text, adding vowels and accents to the script. The author challenges the common assumption that the Masoretes were responsible for corrupting the text, arguing instead that their primary purpose was to preserve the integrity of the Bible and to document variations found in different manuscripts. Through detailed analysis of historical events, ancient texts, and the writings of early church fathers, the author presents a compelling case for the authenticity of the Hebrew Bible. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the Bible, the evolution of religious texts, and the fascinating world of scholarship surrounding the Hebrew language.
