There is stronger manuscript support for scripture texts than Homer, Plato, Aristotle, Caesar, and Tacitus. Equally amazing is the fact that the bible has been virtually unaltered since the original writings, as has been attested to by numerous scholars who have compared the earliest manuscripts with ones written centuries later. And again..archaeological finds have affirmed the details surrounding the trial that led to the torment of Jesus Christ, as well as Pontius Pilate who ordered the crucifixion. As well as Caiaphas the high priest who presided over the religious trials of Christ. Telling isn't it, when scholars have to revise their biblical criticisms in light of solid archaeological evidence.
Then there's the Old Testament recorded predictions of well known historical events that could in no way have been predicted by chance or even common sense, like the book of Daniel written before 530 BC absolutely accurately predicts the progression of nations from Babylon through the Median as well as Persian empires to the persecution of the Jews under Antiochus IV Epiphanes with his desecration of the temple, his untimely death as well as freedom for the Jews under Judas Maccabeus...(165 BC). I find it far more impossible to believe that, the bibles specific detailed prophecies could have been fulfilled by chance, good guessing or deliberate deceit. But to each his own obviously.
