Consider an example of another ancient document, Caesar's Gallic Wars. He wrote the original in about 60 B.C., but the earliest copy we have dates at about A.D. 900 -- a gap of nearly 1,000 years. In addition to this, we only have 10 copies of his work -- yet nobody questions the validity of these copies. By contrast, we have more than 5,000 copies of the Greek manuscript of the New Testament, some of them dating as early as A.D. 130 -- a gap of only 40 to 60 years compared to nearly 1,000 years in the case of Caesar's writing. |
