1 | Compare 2Sam24: 1-25 with 1Chron21: 1-30 | 2 Sam 24:1 | twsmith | 138116 | ||
I am a current student of Theology working on my MA in Religion, the core of my endeavors to seek an MDiv. For research purposes, would anyone care to elaborate, with a comparison and contrasting view to 2 Samuel 24: 1-25 with that of 1 Chronicles 21: 1-30 noting similarities and differences? This is part of a group project underway and we could use all the help we can get. Keep in mind this is only for ideas and additional insight. Plagiarism or cheating is strictly frowned upon as it goes against everything we represent under God. Thank you. Travis |

Hi twsmith, Welcome to the forum. I have noted ten Scripture comparisons through the years in my Study Bible. I hope that some may be of help to you. 1) 2 Samuel 24:1, NASB, "Now again the anger of the Lord burned against Israel, and **it incited David against them to say, "Go, number Israel and Judah." 2 Samuel 24:1, NKJ, "Again the anger of the Lord was aroused against Israel, and **He moved David against them to say, "Go, number Israel and Judah." This relates to another question on the question board for today; namely who causes calamity, evil, confusion? Isaiah 45:7. contrast 2 Samuel 24:10 and Job 1:6 contrast 2 Samuel 24:12 and Job 1:12.

There are many places in scripture where the Lord brings calamity, destruction, disease, poverty, famine, etc. If God is not sovereign, then who is? Ecc 7:14; Acts 4:28 |

Hi Doc, I agree with you; no argument from me there. I like your Scripture references as well. Acts 4:28, "to do whatever Thy hand and *Thy PURPOSE predestined to occur." Ecclesiastes 3:17, NKJ, "I said in my heart, "*God shall judge the righteous and the wicked, For there is a time there for every PURPOSE and for every work." Ecc 7:13, "Consider the work of God, For who is able to straighten what *He has bent? 14 In the day of prosperity be happy, But in the day of adversity consider--God has made the one as well as the other So that man may not discover anything that will be after him. 15 I have seen everything during my lifetime of fultility; there is a righteous man who perishes in his righteousness, and there is a wicked man who prolongs his life in his wickedness. 16 Do not be excessively righteous, and do not be overly wise. Why should you ruin yourself? 17 Do not be excessively wicked, and do not be a fool. Why should you die before your time? 18 It is good that you grasp one thing, and also not let go of the other; for the one who fears God comes forth with both [Lit. all] of them." I like the NASB over the NKJ for verse 18. NKJ reads "For he who fears God will escape [Lit. come forth from all of them] them all." So the NKJ says that you come forth FROM all of them and the NASB say that you come forth WITH all of them. We take the good and the bad that life gives us do we not. Isaiah 45:7, NKJ, "I form the light and create darkness, *I make peace and create calamity; I the Lord, do all these things." The BOLD face and the stars are mine for comparisons. From the heart, Ray |
