DEAD SEA SCROLLS. OTHER MANUSCRIPTS
Are the Dead Sea scrolls of any real benefit?

Tischendorf and the shepherd boy who found the "Dead Sea Scrolls" in a cave must have been distant cousins employed by the same "mob boss" (aka Pope) 😂
I'm not convinced that the Dead Sea Scrolls advantage us in any way. For the most part, they confirm much of what we already know. And, the Masoretic Texts (OT) are a product of the most meticulous copying humanly possible. Like you intimate, both Tishendorf's "find" and the Dead Sea Scrolls "find" advantage Rome more than the authenticity of scripture.
Thanks Reg ! That was comforting to hear this message ❣️Thanks so much . You put things to rest right there, you know what I mean 👍God Bless you 🙏
As you rightly state, whether or not the scrolls are "authentic" is irrelevant. Gnostics were prevalent in those times so corrupted texts and understandings were as well.
A needed understanding. Thank You Reg. Over the years, the translation of these scrolls . . and subsequent "discoveries" in them has been rife with Jesuits . . including the very slippery "former" Jesuit Malachai Martin who was involved throughout his life with numerous intrigues and Vatican disinformation efforts.
They are a convenient distraction, which most certainly serves the Jesuits.
