Just curious; didn't the DSS (Dead Sea Scrolls) lend some credibility to the OT text? Also, shouldn't we apply the same standard to the Bible that we do to other ancient texts? For example: Has anyone ever questioned the authenticity of Plato, Homer, Aristotle, etc.? I'm not asserting anything; just curious if someone else has done more investigation. I read somewhere about original manuscripts and the vast number of NT copies in comparison to other ancient texts.
