NASB | Luke 3:33 the son of Amminadab, the son of Admin, the son of Ram, the son of Hezron, the son of Perez, the son of Judah, |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Luke 3:33 the son of Amminadab, the son of Admin, the son of Ram, the son of Hezron, the son of Perez, the son of Judah, |
Bible Question:
Why does the NASB and Amplified both include "son of Admin" in the genealogy listed in Luke 3:33, but other versions do not? This would make Ram the grandfather of Amminadab, rather than his father. Examples: NIV the son of Amminadab, the son of Ram, the son of Hezron, the son of Perez, KJV Which was the son of Aminadab, which was the son of Aram, which was the son of Esrom, which was the son of Phares, which was the son of Juda, ASV the son of Amminadab, the son of Arni, the son of Hezron, the son of Perez, the son of Judah, Compared to Matt 1:4 (NASB) Ram was the father of Amminadab, Amminadab the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon the father of Salmon. And Ruth 4:19 (NASB) and to Hezron was born Ram, and to Ram, Amminadab |
Bible Answer: Dear Ladyborg: Certain other versions besides NASB and Amplified do include Admin in the portion of the geneology given in Luke 3:33, e.g., the English Standard Version, the New Living Translation and the Berkeley Version. There is a variance among the manuscripts of this verse, and the rendering given depends on the manuscript that the translators followed. It would be helpful to see a translators' footnote to this verse in the NASB that explained the variance. You have a keen eye for detail. That's good. Makes you a better Berean. Your discovery would have escaped my notice completely. --Hank |
