Did the Romans edit the Bible?

"I really doubt it, although it has a small possibility. Most of the Romans, back then burned many of the Bibles instead."Actually there were allot of Pagan Romans who wanted to burn the bible but there were also allot of Christian Romans (the Romans became Christian under Constantine). And the church spent allot of time burning Gospels itself. The Romans (and the church) chose what to put in the Bible (like which of the Gospels went in the Bible). We know that the Romans changed the dates of holy days and they may of had different interpretations of the bible but if they'd actually wanted to edit the bible it would have almost certainly of had to been approved by the church. Some text that could not have been edited still survive and they agree with the bible on most points.


Which religious order preserved the Bible during the Dark ages by writing out copies by hand?

Bibles were copied by a variety of monastic organizations that were especially set up for the purpose, but there was no one group that did this. There was not even one Church that did it. The Book of Kells was a product of a Celtic Orthodox Church that was only loosely affiliated with the Roman Church, and there were other Churches, notably the Oriental Orthodox and Coptic Orthodox Churches, which did copied their own Bibles. After the Great Schism of 1054, the Eastern Orthodox Church maintained bible production in Greek and the Roman Catholic Church did it in Latin.
