How do the Sola Scrptura folks react to the Dead Sea Scrolls and other more recent discoveries of ancient Biblical texts not among those canonized by Martin Luther?

However, if one is using the Bible as a premise and traditions, how does one evaluate discrepancies between the two, as traditions are interpretations of Bible passages as their claim for validation.

The influence of the Christian Old Testament was the Septuagint, which predates Jesus. Luther, also maintained the Septuagint philosophy of law, history, poetry and prophets, in ordering, while the Tanakh followed Torah, prophets (Nevi'im) and writings (Ketuvim).

In response to A2A:

What is something brutally honest that needs to be said?

The New Testament was established as part of creating a universal (catholic) interpretation for all Christians.

Actually, Luther was influenced by the books of the Masoretic Tanakh and did, originally, include the Apocrypha.

Since the Bible is a collection of writings (literally what biblia means), you will even find that while Matthew and Luke have genealogies, Paul wrote to Titus and Timothy not to pursue foolish genealogies.

I caught my husband of 20 years looking at inappropriate pics of women on TikTok or Instagram. I'm not sure., but when I told him he got mad and made excuses of why they popped up. I then told him how I've snuck on his phone and saw what he's been looking at . We had a horrible big fight. I asked him why did he even marry me when I see the type he likes . Nothing like me, I'm petite, blonde and blue eyes. These women are dark haired dark eyed and have curvy bodies, large breasts, etc. I just don't feel the same about him after this. I can't get over this

If you study, you will find passages in the Orthodox Bible, not in the Catholic.

Just as there are a few discrepancies between the Masoretic and Samaritan Torahs.

Nuda Scriptira is scripture alone. Sola Scriptura is writings authority over traditions and does not imply Biblical inerrancy (see above in regards to Jesus, and genealogy to David).

Who writes and reads novels nowadays?

Even Jesus questioned how the Messiah was David's son.
