Do you have a question for debate, p.a?

Response. Same one. How can scripture be "God breathed" and yet have so many contradictions?

The obvious answer seems to be it can't

What has that got to do with the word CODEX?

RESPONSE:

It doesn't. "Codex" is a term which you used but evidently don't understand.

A codex (Latin for block of wood, book; plural codices) is a book in the format used for modern books, with separate pages normally bound together and given a cover. Although the modern book is technically a codex, the term is used only for manuscripts. The codex was a Roman invention that replaced the scroll, which was the first book form in all Eurasian cultures.

I'm still struggling to understand what the argument for biblical inerracy and the definition of codex have to do with each other.

A codex is simply a manuscript in book for (as opposed to a rolled scroll).

Well it's in the bible canon and the bible canon is authorative in this forum. Do you have a more substantial to offer or are you simply asking "How do we know the bible (canon) is true?"

RESPONSE:

It doesn't. It was a ploy you attempted on another thread evidently to avoid discussing the errors in scripture. Did you forget you raised it?
