Jeremiah 8:8

The prophet Jeremiah warned that the scriptures had been corrupted — not lost, not misunderstood, but deliberately altered by the scribes who were entrusted to preserve them.

“How can you say, ‘We are wise, and the law of AO is with us’? But behold, the lying pen of the scribes has made it into a lie.”Jeremiah 8:8

This section presents chapters and passages where the corruption is identifiable and the original meaning can be restored from context, parallel accounts, and internal evidence within the scriptures themselves.

How to read these restorations

Corrected words appear highlighted in gold so you can see exactly what has been restored. The surrounding text is faithful to the Hebrew, rendered with the true name of the Most High in place. Hover over any highlighted word to see that it is a restoration.
