1 | John Mills 30k inconsistancies in the NT | Not Specified | KevoStudy | 219613 | ||
I have been exchanging posts with some atheists in an online forum about the reliability of the Bible. I have written that there are tens of thousands of extant manuscripts and that they all agree with each other, with only about 1 percent discrepancy. I wrote this because I have read numerous articles that say this. One of the atheists posted that John Mill documented 30,000 variations in the manuscripts he studied and that many of these inconsistencies involve accounts of Jesus virgin birth and resurrection. I found the reference to 30,000 inconsistencies in a Wikipedia article, but it doesnt give any detail about his findings and the pros and cons of his conclusions. Can anyone please explain this to me? Is Mills work a valid criticism of the manuscript consistency? Are the articles I have read about the NTs incredible level of manuscript accuracy correct? Thank you for your help,Kevin |
