Great points, Godzilla. This article is a biased twisting of Tov’s work.
I have several of Tov’s books and what is stated here is not what is apparent in his other works, Tov has great respect for the the transmission process and for scribal accuracy.
Indeed, and considering that this is from 1994/5ish, there has been a LOT more studies available. If 1QIsa was a torked up as lindsey et al insinuate, there would be absolutely no basis for the claim that the transmission over the 1000+ years to the MT was so remarkable. Seems mormon apologists like lindsey just don't understand that Christians do understand these things and the fact that the transmission of the OT and NT have come to us so well given so many hostile factors.
