We must first of all know that the entire Bible is corrupted and unreliable and is mostly filled with man-made laws and corruption! "`How can you say, "We [the Jews] are wise, for we have the law of the LORD," when actually the lying pen of the scribes has handled it falsely?' (From the NIV Bible, Jeremiah 8:8)"
The Revised Standard Version makes it even clearer: "How can you say, 'We are wise, and the law of the LORD is with us'? But, behold, the false pen of the scribes has made it into a lie. (From the RSV Bible, Jeremiah 8:8)"
In either translation, we clearly see that the Jews had so much corrupted the Bible with their man-made cultural laws, that they had turned the Bible into a lie!
See Also Deuteronomy 31:25-29 where Moses peace be upon him predicted the corruption/tampering of the Law (Bible) after his death.
The Book of Moses predicted that the Law (Bible) will get corrupted. The Book of Jeremiah which came approximately 826 years after did indeed confirm this corruption.

Um, I'm not sure if you're trying to say that Jews are evil corruptors with this. I definately wouldn't agree with that.
What I do agree with is that the Bible is a manmade, cultural product, not a divine book. The old Testament is the history and creation story of the Jewish people. Of course it would include their man-made cultural laws. The New Testament is the history of the early Christian church.
So where does this leave us? Well, I think the Bible has many important messages to teach us, but we can't blindly parade it as absolute truth. Thankfully. I wouldn't really want to stone anyone.

the Bible is concept to be a record stimulated through God and is to be taken at face cost as being the record He needs circulated. the Bible has been "corrupted" considering its inception at the same time as Romans determined what books will be coated and which may be excluded. the Bible has been "corrupted"considering its inception considering no books were written in any respect till almost 400 years after the demise of Christ and it is almost the time Mohammed grow to be round. the Bible grow to be recreated with the Reformation and the beginnings of the Protestants faiths in the 1500 and 1600's, and thoroughly replaced its face with the booklet of the King James version in the previous due 1600 early 1700's. the Bible is a human record and is hence inherently "corrupt".

Well for one thing all the different religions around Jerusalem say that their Idea of God made the land for them only. The Jewish religion is the last one to declare this After the expulsion of the family of ADAM from the Garden of Eden. and the establishment of the tribe of Abraham.
The larger corruption occurred after the Ascension of Jesus and the start of Christianity.
Each dropped some writings from their Religious Texes for various reasons.

Islamic tripe.
Mohammed said that both the New and Old Testaments of the Bible were the word of God...before he later changed his mind and claimed the Jews and Christians had rewritten him out of the Bible.
Yet both the Old and New Testament texts predate the birth of Mohammed. Now that is some conspiracy!

What was your question? Aside from literalists, most do not deny that flaws have become included in the Bible. This still leaves open the question of divine inspiration, but we'll leave that for elsewhere. It still isn't clear what you're asking, as opposed to stating.

Ya know what's even more corrupted??? The Koran! LOL! Now shoo. No converts today. Believe it or not, the 9-11 thing isn't easy for Americans to get over.

You're right . The Bible has been corrupted. If you are really searching for the truth , I'd suggest you read the Quran. Which is the only book of God that has not been corrupted.

That is why people should not take the Bible literally...
Plus real followers of the faith see through the bs
