Tbh biblical inerrancy can range from anything from “The Bible is the most historically and scientifically accurate book in the whole world” to “The Bible is only inerrant in fulfilling it’s intended purpose of revealing God.”
What hurdles have you run into when talking about this with people?
Not a Christian but couldn’t God just ensure the translators do a perfect job? But then there are multiple concurrent Bible versions even in a single language so idk
couldn’t God just ensure the translators do a perfect job?
Perhaps by sending the angel Gabriel to dictate it all word-for-word…
:inshallah:
No, as @Dinkdink already mentioned, it was written down once, by a person we have very good historical records of, it was copied down very quickly, and within less than a generation there were religious authorities preserving its content.
Catholics and Protestants have slightly different Old Testaments, but Sunni and Shi’a have the same canon. There might be lively debate and scholarship about hadith and religious authorities/laws, but not the Koran.
The Koran is pure and never changed. That’s why it’s so popular.
