WAS THE BIBLE CORRUPT?

 WAS THE BIBLE CORRUPTED? A close examination of the source is appropriate and this shall be examined below:

" *NO CHANGE lS THERE lN THE WORDS OF [God]. That is what is the great attainment."* - Quran 10:64

" *So if you are in doubt about that which We have revealed to you, then ask those who have been reading the Scripture before you. The truth has certainly come to you from your Lord, so never be among the doubters* ." - Quran 10:94

Most Muslims who claim *Tahrif fall silent* when confronted with the above. The few who try to counter typically rely the following passage from the Quran as their proof text for Tahrif:

" *AND lNDEED, THERE lS AMONG THEM A PARTY WHO ALTER THE SCRIPTURE WlTH THElR TONGUES so you may think it is from the Scripture, but it is not from the Scripture." - Quran 3:78* 

But this passage claims oral alteration of the Scripture - "WITH THElR TONGUES" - and not alteration of the Scripture itself. *This was made clear by Muhammad's own cousin, Abdullah ibn Abbas, who explained Tahrif as the charge of misinterpretation*, *not the alteration, of God's word*:

"The word "TAHRIF" signifies to change a thing from its original nature; and that there is no man who could corrupt a single word of what proceeded from God, so that the Jews and Christians could corrupt only by misrepresenting the meaning of *THE WORDS OF GOD.* " - Al-Bukhari p.1127, line 7

Do we have any Muslim to explain the Hadith and the Quran verse or are they afraid?
