Is the Torah Corrupted ?

“How do you say: “We are wise, and the Torah of the Lord is with us? when, in fact, the false pen of the scribes has made it into a lie?” (Jeremiah 8:8)

Read the context of Jeremiah 8. Start from verse 4 as the verses before talks about a completely different subject, Jeremiah verse 4 tells us

4 “Say to them, ‘This is what the Lord says:
The verses from 4 onwards tell us how Jerusalem turned away and how the wicked people don't repent etc. However, when u get to verse 8 the Lord says something very interesting, lets read;

8 “How do you say: “We are wise, and the Torah of the Lord is with us? when, in fact, the false pen of the scribes has made it into a lie?”

So, the Lord is confirming the law has been corrupted by the so-called wise men. After disobeying God’s command, the best way to avoid any religious practice would be to alter the text of God. Isn't that enough evidence to prove our point. Even biblical commentary confirms the Torah was corrupted by false priests. below is what Christian commentators have to say regarding this controversial statement made by Jeremiah.




Clarke's Commentary on the Bible

The pen of the scribes is in vain - The deceitful pen of the scribes. They have written falsely, though they had the truth before them. It is too bold an assertion to say that "the Jews have never falsified the sacred oracles;" they have done it again and again. They have written falsities when they knew they were such.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The law of the Lord - The "Torah," or written law, the possession of which made the priests and prophets so boastfully exclaim, "We are wise."

Lo, certainly ... - Rather, Verily, lo! the lying pen "of the scribes" hath made it - the Law - into a lie. The mention of "scribes" in this place is a crucial point in the argument whether or not the Pentateuch or Torah is the old law-book of the Jews, or a fabrication which gradually grew up, but was not received as authoritative until after the return from the captivity. It is not until the time of Josiah 2 Chronicles 34:13 that "scribes" are mentioned except as political officers; here, however, they are students of the Torah. The Torah must have existed in writing before there could have been an order of men whose special business it was to study it; and therefore to explain this verse by saying that perhaps the scribes were writers of false prophecies written in imitation of the true, is to lose the whole gist of the passage. What the scribes turned into a lie was that Law of which they had just boasted that they were the possessors. Moreover, the scribes undeniably became possessed of preponderating influence during the exile: and on the return from Babylon were powerful enough to prevent the restoration of the kingly office. That there should be along with the priests and Levites men who devoted themselves to the study of the written Law, and who in the time of Josiah had acquired such influence as to be recognized as a distinct class - is just what we should expect from the rapid progress of learning, which began with Elisha's active management of the schools of the prophets, and culminated in the days of Hezekiah. Jeremiah's whole argument depends upon the fact that there were in his days men who claimed to be "wise" or "learned" men because of their study of the Pentateuch, and is entirely inconsistent with the assumptions that Jeremiah wrote the book of Deuteronomy, and that Ezra wrote parts of Exodus and the whole of Leviticus.



Now this is not what Jeremiah is saying from his own mouth, its what God has instructed him to say!!
God is aware the scribes have corrupted the law.


Just a few more passages to expose the bible 

☛ [Jer. 6:10] Behold, the word of the Lord is unto them a reproach, they have no delight in it.. From the least of them even unto the greatest of them, every one is given to covetousness, and FROM THE PROPHET EVENT UNTO THE PRIEST, EVERY ONE DEALS FALSELY. 

☛ [Jer 14:14] The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not neither have I commanded them, neither spoke unto them. 

☛ [Jer. 23:36] And the burden of the Lord shall you mention no more.. For you have perverted the words of the living God. 

☛ [Jer. 23:31] They use their tongues and say, "HE SAYS".


WAKE UP!!!!!!!

“How do you say: “We are wise, and the Torah of the Lord is with us? when, in fact, the false pen of the scribes has made it into a lie?” (Jeremiah 8:8 )

----------

So, let me get this straight. The Quran is telling us Prophet Muhammed Pbuh is described in the Torah and Gospel, and when we ask a Christian is Prophet Muhammed Pbuh mentioned in your Torah you say big NO.

Yet we find your own Prophet Jeremiah speaking what God told him and that is, "HOW CAN YOU SAY YOU HAVE THE TORAH WHEN THE SCRIBES HAVE FALSIFIED IT" Thus, we can say you don't have the original Torah
