If they reflected upon the original authentic Bible (Injil) and Torah, they'll know the difference between it and between the edited text they hold to be holy
Your reply is ambiguous. Are you saying that God is something of a twat, or are you saying that God was telling the Jews to read and abide the content of nonexistent books?
But in other spots in the Quran, it is mentioned that the Bible was revealed to Jesus; not 40 revelation receivers:
Quote:https://quran.com/5/46?translations=20
Sura 5, The Quran:
( 46 ) And We sent, following in their footsteps, Jesus, the son of Mary, confirming that which came before him in the Torah; and We gave him the Gospel, in which was guidance and light and confirming that which preceded it of the Torah as guidance and instruction for the righteous.
( 47 ) And let the People of the Gospel judge by what Allah has revealed therein. And whoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed - then it is those who are the defiantly disobedient.
( 48 ) And We have revealed to you, [O Muhammad], the Book in truth, confirming that which preceded it of the Scripture and as a criterion over it. So judge between them by what Allah has revealed and do not follow their inclinations away from what has come to you of the truth. To each of you We prescribed a law and a method. Had Allah willed, He would have made you one nation [united in religion], but [He intended] to test you in what He has given you; so race to [all that is] good. To Allah is your return all together, and He will [then] inform you concerning that over which you used to differ.
( 49 ) And judge, [O Muhammad], between them by what Allah has revealed and do not follow their inclinations and beware of them, lest they tempt you away from some of what Allah has revealed to you. And if they turn away - then know that Allah only intends to afflict them with some of their [own] sins. And indeed, many among the people are defiantly disobedient.
( 50 ) Then is it the judgement of [the time of] ignorance they desire? But who is better than Allah in judgement for a people who are certain [in faith].
And also referred to the inclinations Christians and Jews commit which made their judgement unreliable and unauthentic. The original bible is something totally different than the collection of the 40 authors.
