since you are historically illiterate:
1. Moses writes the first 5 books of the Bible, also known as the Torah or Pentateuch.
He had access to the libraries of Egypt but above else God's direct revelations.
2. The Hebrew scribes write the rest of the Old Testament over the years, documenting stories, literature, prophets, wars, etc.
3. Fastforward to the Roman empire, and the OT is translated from Hebrew/Aramaic to Greek. This is known as the Septuagint. A solid, perfect translation done dilligently.
4. Christ's birth, ministry, death, resurrection and ascension happens.
Apostles spread the Gospel, Paul writes epistles and many manuscripts spread.
5. The Greek majority text (known as Textus Receptus) containing both the OT and NT are the majority of text. Rome makes the Vulgate, a Latin translation.
6. Fastforward to 15th century, and various Germans, Bohemians and English are burned on the stake for daring to translate scripture into the vernacular tongue and thereby defying the Roman Catholic institution.
7. Luther translates the Greek texts into German.
Reformers start to translate the Bible into their own language so people can read it for themselves. Rome gets butthurt.
8. In 1611, England is at its peak of literature (Shakespeare). Puritans and Reformers write the Authorized Version (based on Erasmus' godly work). It took 7 years of dilligent work, by many scholars and God-fearing Christians who wanted to produce a fine English translation of the Bible. This would eventually become known as the King James Version we all know and love.
Have there been corrupt manuscripts? Yes (Gnostic/Alexandrian/Sinaiticus/Catholic perversions).
Are all the Bibles corrupt? No. The majority of Bibles, even the modern ones, tell you exactly what the Greek and Hebrew say.
There are word-for-word translations, and there are "easy" modern translations for retards (avoid those). The KJV is a masterpiece and the ultimate Bible version. People have paid with sweat, tears and blood to give you God's Word.
Show some fucking respect you moron.
And today, with the internet, you can easily look up the Hebrew/Greek word for something you read in the Bible, and compare.
is a shitty meme spouted by mudslimes and atheists, because they don't understand what the Bible is or how it was compiled and canonized.
