New Version of the Bible
March 22, 2015 at 12:17 am
I understand an ancient copy of the Pentateuch has been discovered in some caves in the Midbar Yehuda (Judean Desert). The most significant thing about this copy is that it has study notes as part of the original text! This is significant, because if verified, they too are the Word of God. Imagine how much easier it will be to do scripture study! No more long nights sifting through sources that are not original, looking for THE answer!
I have put in a pre-order for 300,000 copies to the Sunni man who found them. Let me know if you are interesting in purchasing one at cost.
Allahu Akbar! (Or so it says at the end of this newly discovered copy).

A signed copy would be nice, but I'm not really interested unless it's a signed first.

Not interested.
But if I can find a pirated version on a torrent site I might take a look at it for the laughs.

Well, I f-ing hope it's in plain, common English. Otherwise nit-wits with agendas will twist it however they'll please in translation, just like they did and still do with all the other scriptures. And the dumb masses won't understand any of it anyway. Come to think of it - it'd better have lots of pictures...

I agree, signed and certificate. Even then I would be so skeptical. It's still written and would have to see something like gods hand giving it or placing it there.

Anybody that needs half a page of study notes to explain the first half has issues communicating and should not be writing books.

I'm going to have to wait for authentication before I place an order. I already have several works of fiction on my bookcase now. Hmmm... maybe I should reserve a copy just in case.
