Now if these things be true then we should be able to see these additions and subtractions in scripture.
1Jn.5:7 and Mk.16:9-20 are interpolations neither of which are found in the oldest and best manuscripts.
the Septuagint version of Jeremiah is shorter than the Hebrew/Masoretic by about one eighth
Among the Qumran texts was a scroll of Jeremiah. This is very significant because the LXX version of Jeremiah is seven chapters shorter than the Masoretic, and what remains is in a different order!
The Dead Sea Scrolls backs up the LXX version, not our Masoretic Bibles.
The Dead Sea Scrolls Version of Isaiah (and Jeremiah)
Psalm 145 is an acrostic poem. That means that each line of the Psalm starts with a successive letter of the Hebrew alphabet. Yet in the Karaites/Masoretic Text this does not happen, one verse (or line) is completely missing.
That verse which has been deleted reads
"God is faithful in all of his words, and pious in all of his deeds; blessed is the Lord and blessed is his name, forever, and ever."
Now because the Karaites/Masoretic Text has deleted this scripture all translations made on the Karaites/Masoretic Text do not have this scripture either, which includes the KJV of the bible.
So how can those bible translated from the Karaites/Masoretic Text be the undefiled Word of God if one whole verse is missing from it?
But how do we know that this verse
"God is faithful in all of his words, and pious in all of his deeds; blessed is the Lord and blessed is his name, forever, and ever."
Has really been deleted from the scriptures of the Karaites/Masoretic Text?
We know because of the discovery of the dead sea scrolls which has this verse
"God is faithful in all of his words, and pious in all of his deeds; blessed is the Lord and blessed is his name, forever, and ever."
In it. Thus making complete the acrostic poem.
Now if the Karaites/Masoretic Text bibles have deleted a whole line of scripture how many other scriptures have been deleted or added or changed?
Thus my point has been made that the lying pen of the scribes have added to and deleted from the scriptures.
Psalms 22:16
The Karaites/Masoretic Text of the Hebrew Bible originally read, "like a lion, my hands and my feet." and it was not until the dead sea scrolls were discovered that this verse was changed to "They pierced my hands and my feet." which the Septuagint had correctly translated it.
Scholars put this down as a scribal error, however Justin Martyr in his day said the scribes were deleting scripture that clearly showed Jesus was the Messiah.
Now after seeing what the Karaites/Masoretic Text did to Psalms 145 is it really so hard to believe Justin Martyr?
I have read 16 different translations of Deuteronomy 8:6 which reads
"And you shall keep the commandments of the Lord your God, by walking in his ways and by fearing him."
And every one of them (the 16 translations) is in ERROR.
According to the dead sea scrolls Deuteronomy 8:6 should read
"And you shall keep the commandments of the Lord your God, by walking in his ways and by loving him"
To quote another
These variants refer to two powerful but different emotions—fear and love. The variants also set forth a difference in how one understands Old Testament doctrines; in particular, the variants introduce the question of whether one should keep the commandments through fear or through love. The reading of love also provides us with an important view of the God of the Old Testament, who is sometimes portrayed as a strict Deity when compared with Jesus Christ and his teachings of love in the New Testament.
Is the picture becoming clear that no bible is the undefiled word of God because they have either had additions or subtractions from them.
Heck even one so great as Moses added/changed what God had said.
The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?
And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,
And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?
Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away?
He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives:
but from the beginning it was not so.
