1 | Advise on contradictions found in bible | Ps 25:4 | Sir Pent | 17553 | ||
Dear Benjibabs, I appreciate that you are wanting to help the person who sent you these questions. I also believe that there are definite explanations for each of these "appearant contradictions". However, since there are so many of them, would you mind splitting this into several questions with only one or two "contradictions" in each one? I think that would help to keep the threads from getting overly long and complicated. I will share my thoughts on the first one about the lineage of Jesus' father Joseph. I have not studied this, but something just jumped out at me. I would guess that Jacob was Joseph's father and He'-li is Joseph's mother. If you look at those two geneologies, they both trace back to king David, but are completely different from there on. The Matthew account goes through king David's son Solomon. The Luke account goes through king David's son Nathan. I think the message that God has for us is that Jesus was a descendant of king David. In addition, it is interesting that this is true even in more than one branch of His family tree. |

I was wrong about one thing in that post about He'-li and Jacob. He'-li was definately NOT Joeseph's mother. He'-li must have been a man, because it says he was the "son" of Matthat (Luke 3:24). I just wanted to clarify my error so that people would not be confused. | ||||||
