Augustine on Inerrancy

If you chance upon anything in Scripture that does not seem to be true, you must not conclude that the sacred writer made a mistake; rather your attitude should be: the manuscript is faulty, or the version is not accurate, or you yourself do not understand the matter.

- St Augustine (quoted by Kevin Vanhoozer in "Well-Versed Augustinian Inerrancy")
