...reckoned for righteousness (Rom. 4:5).

With this statement I agree 100% with you!! And how do we know this?? And again I ask, does it matter??

GHansen has told us that scripts remain the same over time. That is false. They clearly change over time. I have given the citation that reflect those changes for the Hebrew scripts and the Roman/Latin scripts.

There seems to be some confusion between an alphabetic script and a font. I will attempt to illustrate the difference which does not exist, But, I will call the Matthews alphabet. * The 6th letter of this Matthews alphabet can be written in the following fonts, as well as others: [NOTE: I have deleted these as the different fonts did not copy over into this paste.] All of the above are different fonts of the same letter. However, as this Matthews script is several thousand years old, over the years, it has been written in the following manner: B, P, F [These are changes in script.] All languages are written in an alphabetic script that changes over time.

GHansen: * An alphabetic script is not a language. a script is a specific style of a character that is used to write a language. * It is not true that all Biblical manuscripts were written in the same script. The MSS of the book of Luke were written in a script that differs from the script used to write the book of Genesis. * Yes, the scripts used does not affect the meaning word as a script is not a language. * A script is not a font. * If you cannot access my citation to the Hebrew alphabet, try my citation to the Roman/Latin one.

GHansen: Stinsonmarri can respond to your questions, but I will step in here with a response. * We do not have any autographs of any Biblical book. Therefore, we do not have any proof as to the script used to write any Biblical book. Yes, for books that we can date as to authorship, such as the New Testament, we can assume a specific alphabetic script that was in use on that date. * Alphabetic script is not related to font. Over hundreds/thousands of years, all alphabets have changed the manner in which their letters were written. The English language is written by using Roman/Latin script. If you want to see how this script has changed over the years the following is a good article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin_script
