[[slanting of the story to a particular audience...transcription errors that affect meaning]]
you know, it’s easy for you to make these claims without providing any evidence that this is actually what happened- IF you were to actually study how careful the scribes were in copying texts, you would know that the bible is NOT full of errors like you claim them to be- These scribes were so careful that whenever they discovered a copying error they began the whole passage over and didn’t just use white out to cover htem istake- After they wrote the word God, they would throw the quill away and start with a new one
There was such a strict disciplined process for copying that not many people had the patience and dedication and skill to be a scribe
You and others like you make it seem like the copies were just so riddled with copying errors that it can’t ever be gtrusted- and nothing could be further from the truth
Here’s a link going over just some of how seriously scribes took their work- and it is apparent that the claim that the bible is full of copying errors is just an ignorant accusation

I would encourage you to do some actual unbiased objective research into just how seriously the scribes took their work- You owe it to them to find out the actual truth since you’ve insulted their intelligence and questioned their integrity and or copying skills- Had you been so careful and taken the efforts that these scribes did to make sure there were no mistakes, I don’t think you’d appreciate that years later people called into question your skills when the evidence actually supports that you did a good job
sorry that hsoudl have read that when the word ‘God’ was transcribed/copied, the pen must be newly dipped in ink- not thrown out-
By comparing texts, you see the differences. (And yes, a number of them are simple transcription errors, as if you wrote a small h for a small n.) Not everyone has the best handwriting.
And there are insertions and deletions found by comparing the actual texts too.
