Examples of the WT Mishandling/Misrepresenting Quotes of Jewish Publications
by Disillusioned JW inpage 257 of the wt's 1965 book called "things in which it is impossible for god to lie" quotes from the jewish encyclopedia (edition of 1909) regarding the trinity doctrine.
the first edition of 1901-1906 likely has the same text as the 1909 edition and the text of the 1901-1906 edition (in the article about the trinity) can be read online at https://www.jewishencyclopedia.com/articles/14519-trinity.
the wt begins its quote with the phrase "the concept" but the words replaced with "..." say "the fundamental dogma of christianity;".
