Course Title: 📖 304 - Bible Translation: Has It Been Changed?

Headline: 🎯 Was the Bible Just a Game of Telephone or Has It been Accurately Preserved?

Course Description:

Welcome to the fourth installment of the Bible Myth or Fact Series! In this course, we embark on an intriguing journey through time to explore one of the most profound questions in biblical scholarship: Has the Bible been accurately preserved throughout its translation and transmission history?

Is the Bible a Perfect Copy or a Deteriorating Message? 🕒

Humans naturally assume that any text, especially one as influential as the Bible, would accumulate errors over thousands of years. But is that the case with Scripture? If the Bible does contain errors, does that compromise its authority? Conversely, if it has been preserved without alteration, what does that suggest about its origin and purpose?

In this class, we will dive into the physical evidence that supports the idea of the Bible's remarkable preservation:

• The Accuracy of Copying Techniques: We will examine the meticulous methods ancient scribes used to copy manuscripts, which have been verified by modern research to maintain a high degree of accuracy.

• The Number of Manuscripts Available: Discover the vast number of biblical manuscripts that exist today and how they provide a robust foundation for understanding the original texts.

• The Oldest Manuscripts Available: Explore the oldest biblical manuscripts, which challenge the notion of gradual corruption over time.

• How Modern Translations Compare to the Oldest Manuscripts: Analyze the comparison between contemporary translations and the earliest manuscripts to assess the consistency and accuracy of the message across millennia.

By the end of this class, our aim is for you to have a clearer understanding of whether the Bible has been altered over time or if it has remained steadfast in its original message.
