Ahmed Deedat was a wildly popular Islamic apologist, but his knowledge of the textual critical principles of the New Testament was astoundingly shallow and poor. Here is an example.
Don't Muslims also have different versions of the Quran for Arabs and for non-Arabs? The question was, do Muslims also have different versions of the Quran? We have no different versions. We have, we have different translations.
What is the difference between a version and a translation? I tell you. See, translation, you have a choice of words. Like the verse I quoted you from the Gospel of St. John, chapter 18, verse 9, where it says, I have lost none.
That's one translation. Another one says, not one or none choice of words. Not a single one. These are what is called choice in translating words. It's not worship. But the version is, as the brother was trying to explain, he said that the verse on the Trinity is an interpolation.
He said that. Interpolation, in something that has been pushed into it, which is not supposed to be there. And in the Bible he revealed it to me, that verse is a part of the text. In other words, now that's a version.
You open another book, the Roman Catholic version of the Bible, which is a RSV version, Roman Catholic, they threw it out of the fabrication, that verse. It's a different version. This RSV is a different version.
You remember the verse I quoted you? Jesus telling Paul, why kicketh thyself against the pricks? That verse, that filthy, dirty verse is now thrown out of this as an interpolation. As a fabrication. As an adulteration.
So it's a different version. Now you know the version. You see the version now, that one, this one has it. This one is thrown out.
