It is true that it is seldom questioned that this passage from Antiquities of the Jews contains some interpolations which have been inserted by later scribes (a very small minority of scholars hold that the entirety of this passage is genuine).
Tunay nga na bihirang pagdudahan ang siping ito mula sa Antiquities of the Jews na naglalaman ng ilang bagay na isiningit sa pamamagitan ng later scribes (isang minorya ng mga iskolar na naniniwalang ang kabuuan ng talatang ito ay totoo).
