Assalam Alaikum,
Just want to share something from a professor from University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Department of Religious Studies. He makes me feel soOoo much blessed to have a Quran! =)
"Misquoting Jesus"
"Misquoting Jesus"
Review:
To assess how ignorant or theologically manipulative scribes may have changed the biblical text, modern scholars have developed procedures for comparing diverging texts. And in language accessible to nonspecialists, Ehrman explains these procedures and their results. He further explains why textual criticism has frequently sparked intense controversy, especially among scripture-alone Protestants. In discounting not only the authenticity of existing manuscripts but also the inspiration of the original writers, Ehrman will deeply divide his readers.
