Not just from the Bible, but from secular writers and others. Or other similar mistakes/lies regarding quotes and stories and things like that.
I have noticed a few, but I can't remember most of them... Oops.
Can you give specific examples of the WTBTS taking quotes out of context?

NewChapter
I can't tell you exact quotes, but I know about a scientific find they misrepresented. To support the flood myth, the blue evolution book pointed to a baby mammoth that was found frozen. They said it had been frozen so quickly, it's flesh was still edible. This was supposed to support their theory about rapid climate change brought on by the flood.
I researched the actual find, and the story was quite different. The underside of the mammoth was badly decomposed. No evidence of flash freezing. The researchers got it in their heads that they wanted to eat mammoth stew. So they used some of the meat along the skull. this was bonier and so had frozen more completely before decompostion. Turns my stomach to think about it.
Still they misrepresented the facts. They COULD have simply taught that the story had to be taken on faith. Instead they tried to integrate science by telling a partial story to support a wrong conclusion. Shame on them.

... and the mammoth couldn't have been frozen if the flood was global.
