JEWS AND FALSIFICATION IN THE BIBLE


JEWS AND FALSIFICATION
in the BIBEL




·       Speech of Nehemiah

“You are the Lord, the God who chose Abram … you made with him a covenant … and you have fulfilled your promise, for you are righteous... And you saw you divided the sea before them, so that they passed through the sea on dry land, but you threw their pursuers into the depths, like a stone into mighty waters. … you made known your holy Sabbath to them and gave them commandments and statutes and a law through your servant Moses… For their hunger you gave them bread from heaven, and for their thirst you brought water for them out of the rock. But they and our ancestors acted presumptuously and stiffened their necks and did not obey your commandments; they refused to obey, and were not mindful of the wonders that you performed among them … Even when they had cast an image of a calf for themselves and said, “This is your God who brought you up out of Egypt”, and had committed great blasphemies, you in your great mercies did not forsake them in the wilderness; the pillar of cloud that led them in the way did not leave them by day You gave your good spirit to instruct them, and did not withhold your manna from their mouths, and gave them water for their thirst. For forty years you sustained them in the wilderness so that they lacked nothing; their clothes did not wear out and their feet did not swell. And you gave them kingdoms and peoples … 25And they captured fortress cities and a rich land, and took possession of houses filled with all sorts of goods, hewn cisterns, vineyards, olive orchards, and fruit trees in abundance; so they ate, and were filled and became fat, and delighted in your great goodness…[1] … Now therefore, our God—the great and mighty and awesome God, keeping covenant and steadfast love—do not treat lightly all the hardship that has come upon us, upon our kings, our officials, our priests, our prophets, our ancestors, and all your people … Even in their own kingdom, and in the great goodness you bestowed on them, and in the large and rich land that you set before them, they did not serve you and did not turn from their wicked works.”[2] 

·       Falsification/ Attempts of Jews to falsify Torah [3]

…“We are wise, and the law of the Lord is with us’, when, in fact, the false pen of the scribes has made it into a lie?”[4] “… They exchanged the truth about God for a lie…”[5]


Yusuf Ulucan

[3] Qur’an, Al-i Imran (3): 78, “And indeed, there is among them a party who alter the Scripture with their tongues so you may think it is from the Scripture, but it is not from the Scripture. And they say, "This is from Allah ," but it is not from Allah . And they speak untruth about Allah while they know.” Also look: Maidah (5): 13.
