“Daniel Wallace has counted 1,838 differences between the tr and the Majority Text of Hodges and Farstad.” (Volume 5, Page 3)
“The tr viewpoint, on the other hand, suggests that the various printed editions of the Greek New Testament, beginning with Erasmus in 1516, more perfectly preserve the autographs.” (Volume 5, Page 3)
“On one side are those who believe that the Scriptures have been preserved in the totality of the biblical manuscripts (Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek), and, on the other side, are those who believe that the Scriptures have only been accurately preserved in the kjv/tr/mt tradition—that any other textual tradition is corrupt.” (Volume 5, Page 6)
“two major arguments against preservation. First, preservation is not a necessary corollary of inspiration” (Volume 5, Page 8)
“Cloud ignores the fact that all Christians are ‘at the mercy of textual scholars.’ Every English translation, including the kjv, has been based on a printed Greek text. That printed Greek text was the product of textual criticism. So, whether they acknowledge it or not, readers of the kjv are ‘at the mercy’ of Erasmus, who did textual criticism on the manuscripts available to him in order to produce his printed Greek text; and they are at the mercy of the translators of the kjv, who, as we have shown, did not always follow the tr.” (Volume 5, Page 38)
