Has the Bible been lost, altered or corrupted over time? A whole book could be written on each type of evidence, but it is enough to note, for example, that practically every verse of the New Testament in Greek can be recovered from quotations of the New Testament by the Greek fathers (or scholars) in their writings. Again, versions or translations of the New Testament into Syriac, Old Latin, the Egyptian dialects, etc. were made beginning from three or four decades after the completion of the canon of the New Testament. Scholars with knowledge in these languages can verify the Greek text and the way these translations read. Most important is the overwhelming evidence from the Green manuscripts, the English and American Revised Versions of 1880 and 1901 were based primarily on the great Greek manuscripts of the fourth and fifth centuries. And so abundant have been the discoveries in the past sixty-five years that we can now go nearly two hundred years farther back with the evidence.

A Note on an Inscription from Kuntillet Ajrud, Debra Chase ... The epistolary formulae, attested in epigraphic material as well as in biblical greeting formulae, support the reading proposed for line 3 of the cAjral pithos. Not only is the same sequence of address, greeting, and blessing found, but even the same formulation of the greeting occurs in the Saqqara Papyrus and 2 Sam 9:20. Only the question concerning the identity of the addressee remains. Should there be a more specific title or personal name here, as in the inscription on cAjral Pithos 1? I think not. The title 'MOW/ may be used for any superior. In this context such a designation is specific enough to identify the recipient of the pithos.

However, when they find late bronze pottery that dates to the actual conquest period of 1406 BC (and they did find lot of it all over the site) they dismiss the possibility that it was Israeli or from the occupation of the site for the tribe of Dan that began at tel Dan in 1340 BC. The point of this section is to show that pottery was found all over Tel Dan that dates to the period of the conquest of 1406 BC and therefore could be Israeli from the tribe of Dan. "Jeroboam, however, may have chosen the site because it was traditionally hallowed as a cult site.
