Mans words mixed with God?
Formerly, in Israel, when a man went to inquire of God, he would say thus, "Come and let us go to the seer," for he who is called a prophet today, was formerly called a seer. (1 Samuel 9:9)
----------------------------------------------
Scholars of the bible agree the author inserted his own words, and wrote it as its part of inspired text!
( Bible Rashis commentary )
Formerly in Israel: The author wrote this. This is not part of the statement of Saul’s servant.

Pulpit commentary
Verse 9. - Beforetime, etc. This verse is evidently a gloss, written originally by some later hand in the margin, in order to explain the word used for seer in vers. 11, 18, 19.
How can you call this the word of god when the authors written info has become part of the bible.?? Even if it's one word that's sufficient to reject the entire book as mans handy work has started to play with it... Above pulpits commentary is telling us how a later hand got involved?
Thank to commentaries and extensive studies by scholars we can differentiate them.... Christians however never look into commentaries or scholary work they only interpret the bible thinking they know....
This brings into mind Jeremiah 8:8
"'How can you say, "We are wise, for we have the law of the LORD," when actually the lying pen of the scribes has handled it falsely?
