Does the Qur'an endorse the Bible? Part 1

One of the most common arguments that Christian missionaries pose to Muslims is that the Qur'an allegedly affirms the authenticity and divine nature of the Bible that Christians follow today. They think that Islam teaches that there once was an original Bible and then the Bible got corrupted. This is not what Islam teaches.

The Qur'an does not say that there was an original Letter to the Romans by St Paul or to the Corinthians, which later on got corrupted. It does not believe that these books are divine in the first place.

In this episode I cite from two academic books:

The Bible in Arabic: The Scriptures of the 'People of the Book' in the Language of Islam:

The Hebrew Bible in Islam in THE CAMBRIDGE COMPANION TO THE HEBREW BIBLE/OLD TESTAMENT:

This is an excellent resource on the subject of the Quran's alleged endorsement of the Bible:
