Hi Kevin,

Maybe I should have only asked a question such as:

"Is the Text of the extant Leningrad Codex generally used as the Final
Authority when members of the b-hebrew Discussion Board discuss a
particular Scriptural question?

Then I might have followed up my first question with:

Is there any extant Hebrew Manuscript that a Hebrew Scholar might use to
correct any errors [ if any ] that are believed to exist in the extant
Leningrad Codex?

Those two questions are probably much easier to discuss openly, on this
forum.

I suspect your questions are not far removed from "how long is a piece
of string?" The answer will depend on which piece of string the
responder is looking at (or imagining), and which glasses s/he is
looking through. Whatever the answer, it will definitely run the risk
of departing from the parametres of this list. Even your 2nd and 4th
questions - which are the safest - seem impossible to answer accurately
without asking "What do you mean by 'accuracy' and 'authority'?"

If you mean by questions 1 & 3 "are copies and/or translations as
inspired as the autographs?", I think the only reasonable answer is 'yes
and no - probably', and to say any more runs the risk of being reproved
by the moderators.
