**We are aware of the scribal errors occurring in SOME of the manuscripts and we never try to hide those errors from Muslims or other non-Christians. The errors and textual problems you point at do not change the core tenets of our faith or make us dubious about the authenticity of the Gospels.
I can feel your frustration about the unauthenticity of your various contradictory Bibles, as the issue I raised was not just about errors of some scribes but DELIBERATE ALTERATION, which MISLEAD so many people, as you can see even your Catholic Bible commentators admitted them…but you don’t, because you a layman, probably for the first time, came across with these facts/loopholes in your own backyard.
Now it seems appropriate to post here too the issue of ELOI and ELI as a new example of MIS-INSPIRATION / UNAUTHENTICITY right in your synoptic gospels (of Matthew and Mark). So:
as per Mark, Jesus, when on the cross cried out the words “My God, My God why have you forsaken me” in Aramaic:
Mark 15: 34 (New American Bible ) **
And at three o’clock Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?” 14 which is translated, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”
And the footnote:
14 [34] An Aramaic rendering of ⇒ Psalm 22:2. See also the note on ⇒ Matthew 27:46.

But according to Matthew, the Word for “My God” seems cried out in Hebrew. Which one is a true statement?
Did Jesus call his God in Aramaic as “Eloi, ELoi” or in Hebrew “Eli, Eli” ?
If Matthew and Mark both were really inspired by the Holy Ghost, then howcome Holy Ghost did not even inspire correctly the last words of your God (Jesus), let alone other unimportant stuff such Jesus riding on a donkey…ecc.?
Matthew 27:46
And about three o’clock Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?” 28 which means, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”
Footnote: 28 [46] Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?: Jesus cries out in the words of Psalm 22:2, a psalm of lament that is the Old Testament passage most frequently drawn upon in this narrative. In Mark the verse is cited entirely in Aramaic, which Matthew partially retains but changes the invocation of God to the Hebrew Eli, possibly because that is more easily related to the statement of the following verse about Jesus’ calling for Elijah.

If you still; insist that Mark and Matthew were indeed inspired by Holy Ghost, then:
12 [28] This verse, "And the scripture was fulfilled that says, "And he was counted among the wicked,’ " is omitted in the earliest and best manuscripts. It contains a citation from ⇒ Isaiah 53:12 and was probably introduced from ⇒ Luke 22:37.

Wow!..an another DELIBERATE OMISSION.
Do you know what was that MISSING verse? Would you mind quoting it?

If you still; insist that Mark and Matthew were indeed inspired by Holy Ghost, then:
- The scribes of your Bibles altered the text, on a so many copies that made the translators of your Bibles to pass on that alteration even into Latin or English.
- the authors of so-called Mark and Matthew’s gospels were **not really inspired by the Holy Ghost **as such they made so many errors/mistakes that cause clearly evident inconsistencies and contradictions.
