I know what I was taught in school and then I know what I have read and learned since then. This sure seems to be a topic that is verbotem. Since we have been lied to about EVERYTHING, I highly doubt we were taught the truth. Why? Power, control, hiding knowledge????? Anyway the Bible is pretty clear about so many things and God usually is pretty good about revealing truth and I believe what the Bible states is literally true.
You don’t understand ancient textual transmission. The NT we hold in our hands today is 99.9% accurate to the original autographs. Hands down THE most authenticated book of ancient antiquity. Over 5.686 Greek manuscripts alone with some dating within 15 yrs of the events recorded. There is no other 1st century history that comes close. Plato. Aristotle. Homers Iliad. Tacitus. Caesar’s wars. None hold a candle to the NT documents when it comes to establishing authenticity. The NT is THE most preserved writing from all of ancient antiquity.

The Bible is full of mistranslations.. you need to get a old Hebrew Bible and some dictionaries...the Bible is not what it seems...
