Scofield rewrote Darby's theology as "notes" in his study Bible however, I believe it was KJV and he didn't alter the actual text in any substantive way. The damage came from the commentary and telling people the Bible was teaching Dispensationalism.
I will say that in fairness to Dispensational theologians (even though they are enablers), modern day Dispensationalism is really nothing more than Zionism wearing Dispensationalism as a skinsuit to provide a "Biblical" justification for unquestioning loyalty to *our greatest ally*™
Since Dispensationalism has really only been around since the 1800's, some Dispensationalists will claim that some of the Church fathers who supported premillennialism were Dispensationalists, but the reality is you can be a premillennialist without being a Dispensationalist but you can't be a Dispensationalist without being a (very specific type of) premillennialist.
That's part of the reason I say that "modern day Dispensationalism is really nothing more than Zionism wearing Dispensationalism as a skinsuit". There's a lot more to Dispensational theology than dividing God's people into two groups but these days everything except literal interpretations of land promises has been abandoned and all you're left with is "the modern nation state of Israel is God's chosen people and if we don't given them infinite money God will curse us."
If that is a pointed question expecting the response to be "the jews", I don't think there's evidence for that. After Darby, the jews definitely hijacked the Dispensational system of interpretation in the late 1800's because the rise of the Scofield Bible seems to coincide with Theodor Herzl's zionism.
Dispensationalism is trash. How useless. Obviously we are evolving and things change. Zero useful detail.
