Any orchestral rendition of Beethoven's 5th is authentic as long as it follows Beethoven's score. It does not matter which orchestra from which country was playing, or when the recording was made, it simply needs to follow the score.

What is the messiah composed be george frideric text based on?

The text of G. F. Handel's Messiah is based on scriptures taken from various books in the King James Version of the Bible. The text was edited together by Charles Jennens, though Handel probably had a lot of input either during the process or after the fact. There is also uncertainty about the role of Jennens's chaplain, Mr. Pooley, who may or may not have done most of the work. Ironically, Jennens was skeptical about the work spoke to others disparagingly of Handel.

This kind of libretto was a bit unusual in that Biblical oratorios are usually taken from a straightforward historical narrative (such as Handel's Saul) which provides a plot structure that can be treated in a fashion similar to that of an opera. Messiah, however, is essentially the story of Christ's redemptive work, both from prophecy (especially from Isaiah) and from the New Testament.
