The Critical Text: What Version of the Bible Is True? | John

Описание: In this episode of the Right Response Ministries podcast, Wesley Todd is joined by Pastor Joel Webbon and Antonio Griffith to discuss one of the most famous textual variants in the Bible, specifically focusing on the Gospel of John chapter seven, verses 53 through chapter eight, verse 12. They delve into the history and significance of different manuscript families, such as the Alexandrian and Byzantine texts, and how these have influenced modern Bible translations like the King James Version (KJV), the English Standard Version (ESV), and the New International Version (NIV). The episode emphasizes the claim of Christian faith that God preserved the scriptures infallibly, addressing concerns about textual variances that do not affect core doctrines. The podcast also touches on the meticulous work of translation over the centuries, and the evidence that strengthens the reliability of the Bible.
