Correct you said 30 mss are considered authentic and 3-4 are used. But that is incorrect on both counts.

He said we have 30 extant Greek texts. When pressed he said 30 that are considered authentic.

Well, I guess since you stated that only 30 authentic, extant texts of Greek exist, we have a problem if they used anywhere close to 100 for the TR or the AV.

Shouldn’t it be less than 30, seeing that you claimed that only 30 Greek manuscripts are considered authentic and used EVEN TODAY?

So what evidence do you have that I’m faking it?

So I was honest and said I misread you (post 812). So will you answer the question? Are you saying that only 30 Greek texts were used in my Greek New Testament sitting next to me? Is that what they told you when you studied textual criticism at seminary?

He said 27 books of the Protestant NT are epistles. And he also said that there are only 30 extant Greek texts then changed his argument to only 30 Greek texts are authentic and used.

So you said that only 30 extant Greek texts are considered authentic and used. So they only use(d) 30 Greek texts when they produce(d) Greek NT editions? The Greek New Testament I have sitting beside me is based on only 30 Greek texts?!!!

Sorry. I went back and saw I misread. So how many texts were used to produce the TR? And I don’t know where the number 100 came from. You said “ I don’t think it was 100”. Who said it was? Also, How many texts were used to produce Nestle?

You said 100. So are you saying 100 Greek texts were used to produce the TR? Because I asked you how many texts were used for TR and you said 100 And how many Greek texts were used in producing the Nestle, btw?

Then why did you give the answer you gave when I asked you how many texts were used to produce the TR? The question stands. How many texts were used in the production of the TR?

Again, is it your claim that the men who worked on the AV also worked in the production of the TR Are you conflating the AV with the TR?

So if I said I used the Greek text to exegete, doesn’t that presuppose I read it? How do you exegete a text without reading it?

Are you saying that the men who worked on the AV also worked in the production of the Textus Receptus?

So you hold that the apostles were teaching a false gospel until Paul arrrived?

How many greek manuscripts were used to produce the Textus Receptus? Look it up and let me know.

So you’re saying Peter and John didn’t teach blood atonement for salvation? And the books of Matthew, Mark, and John can in no way be called epistles.

You said 30 extant Greek manuscripts, not how many are used. Which edition used only 30 Greek texts?

So?!!! Paul wrote 13 other epistles and it is debatable that he wrote Hebrews. And Hebrews is not even close to the same genre as Matthew, Mark, and John. Matthew, Mark, and John are historical didactic biographies. Hebrews is a didactic letter.

Correct. But apparently you do not know what an epistle is.
