A fat lot of good that does us. We do not HAVE the original,
not even in Greek and Hebrew.

>So the older the manuscript, the closer to the original.

That is CERTAINLY FALSE. Codex W, for example, is older than
Koridethi, but the scholarly consensus is that Koridethi is
FAR more accurate.

WHY, oh WHY, are you so sure of this? Do you really think
that all of history has produced exactly ONE infallible
king?

>>For God uses kings to accomplish his will, for we can read

And if YOU knew it well, you would know how few of their
kings actually _exhibited_ this knowledge you speak of! Many
of them actually introduced idolatry.

>> For the other versions, or more like perversions of the
