| | Like the Jews with the Torah, Muslims consider the original Arabic text of the Qur'an as uncorrupted and holy to the last letter, and any translations are considered to be interpretations of the meaning of the Qur'an, as only the original Arabic text is considered to be the divine scripture. | | | That is, the doctrine that God is a single holy God (YHWH); but that, there is a real threeness in God's single being, that has always been evident but not understood. | | | The teachings of Marcus Garvey and the Holy Piby are among other important documents, as are the writings and speeches of Emperor Haile Selassie I.

| | The Holy Scriptures |
| | It wasn't long before some Jewish scribes created at least one new translation in the early centuries to furnish a more literal rendering of the Hebrew text that would be less acceptable to Christian uses. | | | In fact the hope of the early church was so secure in the Hebrew Scriptures that a new Jewish version of the Old Testament in Greek was made, because the Septuagint had become to all intents and purposes a Christian book. | | | There is absolutely no doubt that the Jewish Scriptures were deeply woven into the fabric of the people of the New Testament. |

| | Among the criticisms levelled at Erasmus one of the most serious appeared to be...that his text lacked part of the final chapter of I John, namely the Trinitarian statement concerning 'the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. | | | Today, some scholars are again asserting that although the manuscripts behind the Received Text are generally of very late date, they should be followed in passages where a variant occurs, even though the oldest manuscripts stand against the reading. | | | For this reason, and others, the text prepared by Erasmus surpassed the Complutensian text in popularity, and exerted the greatest influence on all the texts to follow for the next few centuries. |
