I agree with that. Even the King James version is a pretty good description of things, if you don't quibble about details. People should keep in mind that this was written by and for people several thousand years ago, with only the most basic science knowledge. If God had told Moses to write down a description of the Big Bang Theory, quantum mechanics and modern astrophysics, the people would have had a good laugh and gone back to worshiping golden statues of cows.
One example that I've used is "imagine if God sat a plasma TV in front of Moses and tuned into the Discovery channel for a video on His Creation". God then told Moses to write down what he saw, and what came out was "In the beginning, God created the heaven and earth".... Sure, it was perfectly inspired by God. But the words from Moses' pen communicate nothing like perfect reality.
Humans never do anything perfectly. There are recent movements among the fundimentalist denominations to believe the Bible "literaly". But the fact is that humans transcribed it onto paper, and retranslated it by hand for centuries. I believe the Bible to be the perfectly inspired word of God. But I don't believe that the human caretakers over the centuries were perfect, or perfectly inspired themselves.
Comparing the first sections of the Bible to the Dead Sea Scrolls that date to just about Jesus' time, demonstrates that there were lots of changes in the verses. Yes, they're pretty close. But they are not exact.
The Old Testament that we read, even in Hebrew, is not the same Old Testament that Jesus studied.
Flame away, lurkers.
