Why did Matthew badly misquote from Zechariah 11:12-13, which mentions thirty pieces of silver being cast to the potter in the house of the Lord:
"Then I said to them, 'If it is agreeable to you, give me my wages; and if not, refrain.' So they weighed out for my wages thirty pieces of silver. And the Lord said to me, 'Throw it to the potter'—that princely price they set on me. So I took the thirty pieces of silver and threw them into the house of the Lord for the potter."

Where did Jeremiah say this in Matthew 27:9-10, NKJV: Then was fulfilled what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying, “And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the value of Him who was priced, whom they of the children of Israel priced, 10 and gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord directed me.” Matthew 27:9-10, NKJV.

God Almighty of the Original Torah in the first Temple in Jerusalem is the only True God.

We shouldn't forget that some scrolls has not been found but since the first century Jews were closer to the time those scrolls were written Matthew must be quoting what Jeremiah and Zechariah both mentioned but by the time the Bible was compiled it was only Zechariah's prophecy that was found.


Take for instance both Isaiah and Micah were inspired to write the same prophecy regarding the end time:
In the last days the mountain of the Lord’s temple will be established as the highest of the mountains; it will be exalted above the hills, and all nations will stream to it. Many peoples will come and say, “Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the temple of the God of Jacob. He will teach us his ways, so that we may walk in his paths.” The law will go out from Zion, the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. He will judge between the nations and will settle disputes for many peoples. They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore. ‭Isaiah 2:2-4; Micah 4:1-3

Imagine someone quoted this verses in the first century and ascribed it to Micah but in Isaiah's scrolls‬ this part is missing what do you think people like you will say regarding the one who quoted and say it's Isaiah?

People like you prefer to distort facts rather than confront the truth. If you compare Isaiah 2:4 and Micah 4:3 you'll find that they are identical in their message. However, when you compare Matthew 27:9-10 with Zechariah 11:12-13, you'll notice a significant misquotation.

That should tell you Matthew quoted what has the same words when Zechariah's account is not exactly the same words!

That should tell you Matthew misquoted Zechariah in his storybook and to confuse you he said it was Jeremiah.
