Brooke Foss Westcott and his pupil Fenton John Anthony Hort were trapped in a century of doubt. They were convinced that the KJV, and its underlying Greek, were falsified. While still in their twenties, they wrote in ink their desires to change the Bible in English. And by the end of their lives, they accomplished their lifelong dream, completing the English Revised Version in 1881, along with their own Greek New Testament. This ushered in the surge of modern versions.
Today, virtually all modern versions stem back to Westcott and Hort’s scholarship and influence. Did God send these two men to “fix the errors” in our English Bible? Or has Satan duped the body of Christ into abandoning God’s preserved word?
David W. Daniels, author of “Westcott & Hort: From Faith to Doubt” joins us as we discuss the life of B.F. Westcott, the world he lived in, and how his journey from faith to doubt has translated into the entire body of Christ.
