How do Christians explain this? Why is the bible full of contradictions?
Imagine being an atheist in 2026 when God has just annihilated MAGA for idolizing an evil, corrupt, vainglorious sinner and blasphemer like Trump. This was a Biblical punishment, and you still doubt? Come on, man.
>>545982906their response on here is usually to call you a kike and then refuse to elaborate lol
>>545982906Most Christians don't even read the Bible so any contradictions therein have zero influence on their "faith" (which is mostly only held onto for purposes of virtue signaling)
>>545983224Karma doesn't require a God
>>545982906The key is that 2 Kings 8:26 and 2 Chronicles 22:2 is referring to different chronological measurements.2 Kings gives Ahaziah's age as 22 when he began reigning. 2 Chronicles gives 42, which can be understood as the age of the dynasty or royal house associated with Omri, rather than Ahaziah's biological age.
>>545982906he became a king twice
>>545983224How does pointing out contradictions in the bible make me an atheist? Answer the questions in the OP
>>545983360>if I completely change what the bible actually says, it’s no longer a contradiction!Kek
>what are transcription errors?
>>545983368That creates even more contradictions, dumbass. Stop pulling shit out of your ass
>>545983443Either way you're going to burn in hell for denying Christ and on that day you won't be able to use OP's image as an excuse for denying Christ. The Bible is 100% true and inerrant
>>545983224Huh? He's still president, he's still rich, he's still not in prison. If that's "punishment" by your Jewish god, then what are the rewards?
>>545983495There are thousands of different Hells in mythology but, sure, the one for not worshipping "King Jew" is definitely real...
>>545982906Just do what the rest of /pol/ does and just blame it on the Jews. Now make fun of the Quran openly around Muslims.
>>545983475>my bible was written by a bunch of retards who can’t keep a story consistent, take that!>>545983495It can’t be true if it’s full of contradictions, dummy
>>545982906The bible wasn't written in english so i take anything it says with a huge grain of salt.
christians are low-functioning non-sapients, not human beings.
>>545982906heres your primer on provenance and inerrancy. so like maybe "son of 42 years " isnt ahaziahs personal age
>>545983648Hey retard, the same contradictions exist in the Greek Septuagint and the Hebrew Bible
>>545983604You try it.
>>545982906is it possible 2 people had the same name.
>>545982906>>545983224>>545983495Christians imported the very people who voted them out this year, lmao
>>545983678>”Ahazia was 42 years old”>nooooo! He wasn’t actually 42!!!Kek. >son of 42 yearsWhat the fuck does that even mean, retard
>>545983325Well, I have met God before I touched the Bible.
>>545982906human scribal error. he was 22. 22 and 42 in hebrew look similar. nothing about the numbers changes anything in christianity. pretty simple. remember, we don't believe god wrote a book by his own hand. only a nigger would believe such a thing.
>>545983495dumb christkike
>>545983723No, and you would know this if you actually read the bible. Azahia’s parents are mentioned shortly after these verses and his mother and father both have the same names in each.
>>545983803Was he a stranger on the bus?
>>545983803Congrats on not taking seriously the "holy book" you pretend to base your life around
>>545983843But the same contradictions exist in the hebrew bible written by native hebrew speakers. Nobody fucks up their own native language like that
>>545983878>heNot appearing as a human.
>>545983697Try what? To write a story without contradictions? Is this difficult for braindead christcucks to do?
>>545983443The Bible wasn't written in English. You're reading a translation of a translation, also likely a different sects version on top of that.
>>545983917sure they do. in some religions, they even forget what they say from 1 day to the next.
>>545983880I take seriously the teaching of the most powerful. The bible is the greatest martial art book, and God Almighty is the greatest Kung fu Master.
>>545984010The same contradictions exist in the original languages. I’m guessing you have nigger DNA because you’re retarded
>>545983981It's next to impossible. Its different languages over more than two thousand years.
>>545983723Especially kings. How many "king george" have there been?
>>545984045>my religion is just as wrong and retarded as islam, take that!
>>545982906I think it's pretty obvious we lack the original Septuagint. We just have a corrupted Masoretic and a corrupted Greek OT in a Septuagint skinsuit. But that isn't to say that the original was radically different and is no reason to disregard the Bible story as a whole and believe that Jesus Christ is God manifest in the Flesh, the only begotten Son of the Father.
>>545984089> two different King Ahazia’s ruled the same kingdom at the same time and also had a mother and father with the exact same nameLol
>>545983981Just make a hand written copy of 2 kings and 2 Chronicals.
>>545984065They do? Prove it. Start with Vetus Latina.
>>545983917It's a 3000 year old text and yes Hebrew has changed over time quite significantly to the point where such a thing could have easily been overlooked. Furthermore after enough time the error becomes an accepted part of the canon and nobody even tries to correct it anymore, instead choosing to jump through a bunch of theological hoops to justify it instead.I'm not defending it I'm just explaining that it is absolutely a simple scribal error that existed long enough for people to not realize it anymore.
>>545984099well, not really. mohammed is a prophet that retardedly got something wrong he shouldn't. the old testament was scribed by humans. little different.
>>545983971Mantid?
>>545983771meh. heres the geneva Bible
>>545984173>Shit happens, bro
>>545984219More like this.https://youtu.be/uBsJgceM0KI
>>545982906>Name your kid the same as your name.Oh wow idk
>>545982906Unlike muslims they do not pretend their texts are perfect, hence their neverending quest to perfect it and the muslims cobtentedness to stew in their "perfect" retardation.
>>545982906It's written by humans making copies of copies of copies for thousands of years without computers. Humans are prone to errors but the parts inspired by the Holy Spirit are preserved by God himself
>>545983239You are a kike(or crypto kike)100%
>>545984208Muhammad didn’t write the hadiths, retard. They were written by regular humans like the bible.
>>545983443Just seek truth retard. Stop trying to "gotcha" people who genuinely DO seek truth. Nigger.
>>545983771
>>545984188>>545984189>>545984194>>545984224>>545984318How can you trust a book filled with contradictions? How do we know which parts are true and which parts are errors?
>>545983589Man is capable of creating horrors beyond your imagination. We can create the hell you desperately seek to exist in again your will.
>>545984332>Muhammad didn’t write the hadiths, retard. They were written by regular humans like the bible.What made Muhammad supernatural?
>>545984275this movie was spooky>>545984320lol
>>545984332he spoke them. muslims believe prophets are "masum", or infallable. secondly, that is a command. he wasn't speaking about what he had for breakfast. >qal allah, qal al rasul "what allah said, the prophet says". so it was kinda allahs fault as well, or he wouldn't have put 2 contradictory commands in mohammeds mouth. such is life.
>>545983333witnessed
>>545984432the geneva Bible editors believe that ahaziahs father was made king emeritus and he was made acting king for 20 years before his father died
>>545984445He wasn’t. I’m not muslim
>>545984618Yet you imply he wasn't a regular human?
>>545982906Manuscript evidence says no: the Septuagint reads 20 in Chronicles, while the Syriac and Arabic traditions give 22. 42 is a copying error.
>>545984498That isn’t true. Muslims don’t believe hadiths are infallible, many are graded as weak hadiths because of contradictions. It’s the same situation as your religion, dummy
>>545982906Dob't let a little thing like that keep you away from God.
>>545984678Septuagint says 20 and 22, the same contradiction exists. How can he be 22 and 20 at the same time?
>>545984492Different is. In the movie, the entity appeared to imitate the human. The being I have seen made me feel like I am the one who imitate it.It can move in the way I am about to move before I even made a move.That being is capable of predicting the future with 100% precision.
>>545984698my religion? the tanakh (your op picrel), was written by allah, as muslims have explained to me. why did allah get the ages wrong? haram
>>545984698How can you qualify that it is a contradiction when you haven't evaluated whether the relevant translations over the millenia have not introduced these errors? I'm still waiting on that
>>545984790take your meds gook
>>545984758Became king at 32 and reigned eight years. He died at 40 (2 Chronicles 21:20). Ahaziah succeeded him. Therefore, Ahaziah was 22, not 42.
>>545984722Imagine if I wrote a holy book and told you to believe in my depiction of God, and when you pointed out the inconsistencies, I said "Don't let a little thing like that keep you away from God."Wouldn't you be more concerned that my fabricated holy book was keeping you away from God?
>>545983239But if you ARE addressing a literal kike . . .
>>545984873You didn’t answer my question. How can he be 22 and 20 at the same time? The septuagint gives 2 different ages
>>545984862Because the oldest surviving bibles also contain these errors
>>545983759Paid by who?
>>545984872No doubt about it. The being appeared to dispel the doubt I have about God not being omniscienxeGod is certainly omniscience.
>>545982906>the (MYSTERY) is a beautiful lie that only the teller can verify
>>545984432You could always ask the Holy Spirit for guidance; or you can just read John and be saved from this world
>>545984887No.I don't care how old Ahaziah was when he became king.
>>545984816What are you even talking about? Islam is just as retarded as christianity
>>545985036I was a christian up until age 14 and god never talked to me
>>545984966And your going to provide proof of that by showing everyone English Bible's?
>>545985129>why are you using English on an English website?Gee, I dunno
>>545985088neat pic. that's allahs book though, as Ive been told by your brothers. why would allah get the ages wrong? don't be shy now.
>>545984944We cannot establish with absolute certainty whether the original reading in 2 Chronicles was 20 or 22 from these variants alone. Seriously, who cares
>>545984816Muhammad said his revelations were in line with the Bible.Later when people found contradictions between the Bible and Quran, Muslim scholars say the Bible must've been corrupted.Yet we have Bible manuscripts dating to before the time of Muhammad and they didn't change before or after the Quran.So when did this supposed "corruption" occur?Obviously Muhammad never read the Bible and was just talking out of his ass.Muslim scholars can't accept this because that would mean Allah made a mistake and call the whole "omnipotent, omniscient God" thing into question
>>545985121You are not the chosen one, unlike me.
>>545985036>consult the expert "holy spirit">it's up to an entity which by its nature can't be verified >But trust me, once your gone.. my source said XJust pipul yourself
>>5459829062 Kings 8:26 King James Version26 Two and twenty years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign; and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Athaliah, the daughter of Omri king of Israel.2 Chronicles 22:2 King James Version2 Forty and two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Athaliah the daughter of Omri.
>>545985196yes. i know.
>>545982906>god is not a man nor he is the son of manits all very jewish and a waste of time trying to figure it out and pretend its not
>>545982906>the biblehebrew news
>>545985121
>>545985189>>545985223>my holy book was written by retarded sandniggers who can’t countSAD
>>545985284I’m 25 now. You are dumber than a 14 year old
>>545985232>god is not a man that he should lie, nor a son of man that he should change his mind just finish it correctly next time, abdullah. im starting to think imam sneako is the one that converted you. this is just horrible.
>>545985182>anyone who doesn’t worship my dead rabbi is le muslim o algo
>>545985245brown hand?
>>545985232>The merchant dishonesty is up to useful idiots.Pretty much
>>545985368so you cant say that it's allahs book? very haram
>>545985165Are you functionally illiterate? I was not requesting that you speak a different language.
>>545985422I hate muslims just as much as jews and christians. You’re all equally as retarded and spiritually brown
>>545985474Why does it matter what language I post when the same contradiction exists in every language?
>>545982906this is foolishness. OP is a kindergarten grade satan. There are 2 different King Azahiahs. One reigned over the Northern Kingdom and one reigned over the Southern Kingdom (Judah). Ahaziah of Israel was king from 853—852 BC. The other Ahaziah, King Ahaziah of Judah, was the nephew of King Ahaziah of Israel and the son of Jehoram. He reigned less than one year in 814B.C. and was 22 years old.
>>545985295Look, I know you dont want the Bible to be true so you can keep on being enslaved by sin. But the intellect does indeed get darkened by it. You shouldn try to use reason right now for it is kaput.
>>545985327your math is as bad as your lack of belief in something that is self-evident and proven by good math.
>>545985491I didn't ask you that, fatima. I asked if you can admit that it's allahs book, as muslims have explained to me. I know you're trying. but this is bad.
>>545982906He abdicated then he was becoming a kang again.So hard for burgers to figure it out?
>>5459855302 separate kings yet they both share the same parents? Also, it was the same kingdon, whit pulling shit out of your ass Cope
>>545985555>math proves god>42=22Lol
>>545985645Where does it say that in the bible? I’ll wait
>>545985573Allah isn’t real so how can it be his book? You’re retarded even for a christcuck
>>545985752oh so the christian god is real. good job.
>>545985536The only sin I commit according to the bible is blasphemy, refusing to turn my other cheek and refusing to love my enemies
>>545982906Why don't you ask Jews to explain it?
>>545985790Nope. All abrahamic gods are fake
>>545985524Because you cannot prove that the contradiction exists from origin. I'm going to make a vague guess that you can't read Greek or Latin and you have never seen a Bible written in those languages regardless of translation date, am I right?
>>545985859I am. Why do you think I made this thread?
>>545982906Christ is king.
>>545985950How do you know which parts of the bible are scribal errors and which parts are true to the original?
>>545985672hi shithead. Ahaziah King of Judah was the son of King Jehoram of Judah and Athaliah. Ahaziah King of Israel was the son of Ahab and Jezebel, making him the uncle of Ahaziah of Judah. read the fucking books, clown
>>545986000Just Google it nigger, it's not that hard: error-pronouncement" tribunal, but rather manages Bible and liturgical translation accuracy through a two-tier canonical review process governed by Canon 838 of the Code of Canon Law. Responsibility is divided between local Episcopal Conferences (national conferences of bishops) and the Vatican’s Dicastery for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments.And that's just the Catholic church.
>>545986018You haven’t read the bible you goddamn retard. They both have the SAME parents. It explicitly lists his parents BOTH times
>>545982906Simple logic: Ahaziah had two kingdoms. One he inherited when he was 22 years old, and the other when he was 42 years old.I bet you don't do well on tests.
>>545986123Okay, so basically you have no way of knowing.
>>545986000>how do you knowyou don't. knowing is the death of faith
>>545986201Source? What verse says this?
>>545982906Because it's fabrication
>>545983224Address the argument ma'am
>>545986248OP's pic
>>545986206Yep, it's faith base.
>>545982906not a christian. muslims love to shove this in people's faces to "prove" the bible is fake or something.the hebrew phrase says he was a son of 42 years. if he was 42 when he took the throne he would be 2 years older than his father. it means the 42nd year of the dynasty of omri.in the septuagint there is no discrepancy, only in the hebrew.
>>545986206Indeed, precisely why you claiming that it's the same in every version is utterly retarded. No one can speak those languages and they have changed dramatically over time. What you read in an English Bible is the best guess approved by a council and it depends on sect. It 2000 years old, translated multiple times over. There is no basis for you to argue that it truly is a contradiction when no one can easily comprehend the original in the first place.
>>545986334It doesn’t say that>>545986388>in the septuagint there is no discrepancyUntrue. The Septuagint says he was somehow both 22 and 20 at the same time
>>545986154you absolute fucking lazy ass liar.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahaziah_of_Judahhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahaziah_of_Israel
>>545986428>nobody can read koine greekAre you retarded?
>>545983690no, they don't, only in the masoretic text, not the greek septuagint translation
>>545986388one is the nephew of the other. if you go look up the parents, it plainly states it.
>>545986461You can't reason, because you're an atheist.
>>5459865082 Kings 8:25–2625 In the twelfth year of Joram the son of Ahab king of Israel did Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah begin to reign. 26 Two and twenty years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign; and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Athaliah, the daughter of Omri king of Israel.2 Chronicles 22:1–21 And the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king in his stead: for the band of men that came with the Arabians to the camp had slain all the eldest. So Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah reigned. 2 Forty and two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Athaliah the daughter of Omri.BTFO
>>545983604>>my bible was written by a bunch of retards who can’t keep a story consistent, take that!Still better than your entire fucking tribe
>>545986201>Ahaziah had two kingdoms. One he inherited when he was 22 years old, and the other when he was 42 years old.Incorrect King Ahaziah of Judah did not inherit two separate kingdoms at those ages. Instead, the numbers 22 and 42 come from a famous difference between two biblical books describing the same event, his accession to the throne of Judah in Jerusalem:• 2 Kings 8:26 states that Ahaziah was 22 years old when he began to reign.• 2 Chronicles 22:2 states that he was 42 years old when he began to reign
>>545986540You haven’t read it then, because the septuagint says he was 22 and 20 at the same time
>>545983843>22 and 42 in hebrew look similar"arbayim" and "esrim" do not look even remotely similar. where did you get this? made it up?
>>545984678>a copying errorin the "word of god" -- that means you can't trust a single word of it to be divinely inspired. not if you're a person who values Reason, the tool given us by our creator to avoid error.
>>545986707I descend from Germanic and Celtic tribes, I’m not jewish like the rabbi you worship
>>545982906By not giving a shit about a dumb typo. >>545983224The book of revelation is co.ing to pass before our eyes, yet people deny it. One lesser sign of the end times is that people will be mad, and they will call the sane people mad
>>545982906Not a christcuck but this just goes to show the care that christcuck scribes in the Middle Ages took when copying their Bible by hand. The numerous spelling mistakes were also a thing.>>545984318Christcuck cope.>>545985196Another christcuck cope, Muslims are able to make the argument because christcucks are so shitty at preserving their own texts. The original Bible doesn’t exist. Almost as if this whole thing could have been prevented if Jesus wrote his own Bible
>>545986508both bible verses in the OP refer to Azahiah of Judah.
>>545983495>Either way you're going to burn in hellChristgroids are just resentful little cunts. That's all there is to it.
>>545986890>The book of revelation is co.ing to pass before our eyes, yet people deny it.Christcucks have been saying this for 2000 years btw
>>545986461>>545986740>The Septuagint says he was somehow both 22 and 20 at the same timeyes i made a mistake, the discrepancy is a different one.scribal error, they did this all by hand. the discrepancy comes from a minority of manuscripts saying one age, and the majority in another. those two historical books come from different manuscripts as well. this is just a history of the kingdom, not the word of God. >>545986612that makes sense
>>545985536>flee from sinjust cut off your balls
>>545986891>muslim makes things worsedude, these are errors inherited from the jews. if anything, medieval scribes were just too meticulous to smoothen out the contradiction.
>>545986882>I descend fromkekshut the fuck up, mutt.
>>545986954So basically, your holy book was written by a bunch of inbred retards who weren’t able to count
>>545987016yes
>>545985952king of the jews
>>545986852>and alsoThe seven pairs of every clean animal and also seven of every birds is a sacrificial thing.You only underline the parts that suit you
>>545987008I’m sorry, did I use a word too complex for your turkroach brain to understand?
>>545987049>'jews' is spelled with 9 letters
>>545983360This or transcription error. Retarded thread.
>>545987008You know more about Jews than your ancestors.
>>545987040Lmao even. At least you’re honest
>>545986428>turns out we have forgotten hebrew and koine greek to such an extent that we cannot read numbers written out in wordsmy brain is full of fuck.
>>545983843Oh come on, why don't you get worked up like the disingenuous shills want you to? You're supposed to read the characterization of someone who likes all the things they accuse you of, get discouraged by their provocation and become an e-theist troon. If you don't fall foe it, then what was all this brigading for?
>>545984432The bible holds spiritual truths and isn't about transcription of historical events at all. Ahaziah could be 2000 years old and it wouldn't matter.
>>545987447How do you know the spiritual “thruths” aren’t also scribal errors?
>>545987124How much lead paint did you drink as a kid?
>>545987486You can recognize them in the most broken english, the message is more important than your transcription error that changed one number.
>>545982906MOohamhead was a pedophile.
>>545987447>The bible holds spiritual truths>adam and eve DID die on that very day, but it was a spiritual death>the world really ended in spring 2012, but it was a spiritual end-of-the-worldthere's a pattern here. apparently "spiritual" in christardese means "not real".
>>545987645Yes if you make up things in your head that other people said everything looks silly.
>>545987061>seven of every birds is a sacrificial thingno shit, sherlock. it says right there they are considered clean (kosher.) the contradiction is that it earlier said TWO pairs of every bird. im not being deceitful at all in my argument--rather, you are a copium-addled copemaxing copetard so you'll summon an excuse for everything which conflicts with your belief system
>>545982906The fact that the Greek manuscripts from the 300s AD say 20 or 22, while the Hebrew manuscripts from the 900s AD say 42, tells textual critics exactly when the error happened.The translators of the Greek Septuagint were working from a Hebrew scroll that existed around 200–100 BC. Because their translation reads 20 or 22, historians know that the original, ancient Hebrew scrolls used to say 22. The mistake ("42") likely didn't exist yet, or at least hadn't become dominant.The error slipped into the Hebrew scribal line somewhere between the time the Greek translation was made and the centuries leading up to the creation of the Masoretic Text tradition.
>>545982906we wuz kangz
>>545987824>Jesus has two parents>"this is a contradiction!"Desperate and unhinged.
>>545987703except all those are things I've personally witnessed christards say. harold camping excused the failure of his first end-of-the-world prediction in 2012 by claiming it was a spiritual apocalypse, and try to argue with any christard about how the snake, not god, told the truth to adam and eve about dying on the very day they eat from the fruit, to see the claim I quoted pop up in the first ten minutes. I don't have to invent stupid things christards say, it's enough if I quote them.
>>545987195>the holy book of god has errors
>>545987824the standard cope is that ine pair is included in seven pairs, and one text locus did not think it important to mention the other six pairs. I am still waiting for the "there were two floods" defense to be made.
>>545987124>'jews' is spelledwhat are you trying to say? that you cant into declension?
>>545987063No, I am simply laughing at your weird Larping. Sure, you are European, anon. Whatever.
>>545988158Well I’m clearly not Navajo, Cherokee or Chippewa. Do you think DNA magically changes depending on where you live?
>>545982906typo
>>545987982Your comment adds to the already ample evidence of christians' lack of reading comprehension, which makes sense as they specifically recruit from the dregs of society

>>545988412Matthew and Luke present different genealogies for Jesus because they serve different purposes. While both lists connect Jesus to King David, they take entirely separate paths. Matthew traces the legal, royal line through Joseph, while Luke traces the biological line through Mary.Matthew writes primarily for a Jewish audience to prove that Jesus has the legal right to the throne of Israel. He uses a forward-moving chronological order that starts with Abraham and moves down to King David, through King Solomon, and eventually to Joseph. Throughout the list, Matthew uses the explicit word "begat" to show direct father-to-son succession. However, at the very end, he breaks this pattern to protect the doctrine of the virgin birth, stating that Jacob begat Joseph, the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus. This firmly establishes Joseph as the biological son of Jacob, giving Jesus the legal status of an heir to the royal throne through adoption.
>>545989119Anti-white leftists also occasionally identify as a random culture they find cool, just like you.Literal mental illness.
>>545989272Luke, on the other hand, was a physician writing to a broader Gentile audience, focusing on Jesus's literal human biology and status as the savior of all mankind. His list moves backward, starting with Jesus and tracing all the way back to King David through a different son, Nathan, and ultimately back to Adam and God. Because ancient Jewish naming conventions required lines to be framed around males, women were typically omitted from formal lists. To keep the genealogy legally valid while tracking Mary's biological line, Luke includes Joseph but puts a major qualification on it.Luke explicitly notes that Jesus was "being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli." In the original Greek grammar, every single name in Luke's list is preceded by the definite article "the" except for Joseph's name. This deliberate grammatical exception signals that Joseph is a placeholder to satisfy naming conventions. Because Joseph was the son of Jacob according to Matthew, he becomes the son-in-law of Heli in Luke. By tracing the lineage through Mary's father Heli, Luke provides the physical, biological proof that Jesus is a blood descendant of David.

>>545983360>2 Chronicles gives 42, which can be understood as the age of the dynasty or royal house associated with OmriSo:"Ahaziah was 42 years old"somehow means "The dynasty or royal house associated with Omri was 42 years old"Why didn't the jews who wrote the book just say that then?We're hitting levels of retarded christcuck cope that shouldn't even be possible.
>>545989298The phrase "of Heli" relies on a Greek grammatical structure called the genitive case, which simply denotes family belonging and can mean "son-in-law" just as easily as "son." While Luke uses this exact "of [Name]" pattern for every single generation all the way back to Adam, he introduces a highly deliberate grammatical exception for Joseph. In the original Greek text, every name in the entire list is preceded by the definite article tou (meaning "the" or "of")—except for Joseph.By omitting this article only before Joseph's name and immediately resuming it with Heli, Luke structurally breaks the biological chain. This subtle grammatical glitch serves as a parenthetical spacer, signaling to the reader that Joseph is merely a legal placeholder. Because the grammar bypasses Joseph and connects the line directly from Heli onward, it demonstrates that the list is tracking the physical ancestry of Mary's family, making Joseph the son-in-law of Heli by marriage.

>>545982906>what is Masoretic vs Septuagint LXX2 Chronicles 22:2 See 2 Kings 8:26; Hebrew forty-two; Septuagint twenty
>>545986852The difference in numbers between the animal pairs on the ark directly reflects a practical survival strategy tied to ancient sacrificial laws. If Noah had only brought a single pair of clean animals or clean birds, sacrificing even one of them after leaving the ark would have immediately driven that entire species to extinction. By bringing seven pairs of the clean categories, Noah was provided with a sustainable surplus, allowing him to perform the required sacrifices of thanksgiving without endangering the future survival of those species. Conversely, the unclean animals—which were strictly forbidden from being used in sacrifices—did not need a surplus, so a single pair was sufficient to preserve their kind.To fully understand this, it helps to look at how Genesis uses these categories. In the earlier parts of the flood narrative, the text uses general terms to describe the preservation of most animals broadly, emphasizing the survival of all living creatures by pairs. However, the second, more detailed command introduces the specific distinction between "clean" and "unclean." Because Moses is the traditional author of Genesis, he wrote the text for an audience already familiar with the Mosaic Law, retroactively applying the concepts of ritual purity to Noah's time to explain why certain animals required a greater surplus for future worship.
>>545989665This specific distinction relies on an objective phenomenon of Biblical Hebrew grammar known as "ellipsis with gapping." In this ancient literary style, when a modifier like "clean" is applied to a primary group, a closely linked second category introduced right after it automatically inherits that same modifier to avoid repetitive phrasing. In Genesis 7, God sets up a precise mathematical framework where clean animals are taken by sevens and unclean animals are taken by twos. When the text immediately introduces the birds and assigns them the number seven, the shared quantity grammatically forces the birds to absorb the "clean" modifier from the preceding line.The narrative confirms this grammatical carry-over in Genesis 8:20, where it explicitly states that Noah built an altar and sacrificed of every "clean animal" and every "clean bird." Because Noah could only sacrifice birds that he had a surplus of, the text relies entirely on the reader understanding that the seven pairs of birds were clean from the very beginning.
>>545989121There are also many manuscripts that do not contain the error, proving that it in fact was actually just a typo. Not only does it not change anything about the character or message of God at all, but the true version was even preserved by others. God's divine power is truly amazing. Praise Him.
>>545989665>>545989695tl;dr your copewhy didnt yahweh the foreskin demon just instruct the jews to write his holy word using plain language that doesn't require sixteen paragraphs of pilpul to interpret?
>>545986852seven pairs, aka two, of every kind of bird.how fucking stupid do you have to be.
>>545982906Well, the thing is, is that the majority of the context is veiled, so we are not able to see the whole picture here. Who knows if everything in the Bible is true though? It sure is fantastical to believe some man supposedly came down from heaven, and was born to a virgin named Mary. Even in the book of Daniel, it speaks of 3 men being cast into a furnace of fire, by the decree of King Nebuchdnezzar, and accoring to the "most true scripture, they had "survived". Does this sound like truth, or a fairy-tale here? I sure as breath have never seen anyone, or have witnessed footage of someone being cast into a great deal of fire- and, coming out unscathed. When it comes down to it, it comes off as a fairytale, perhaps some sort of book used to control people. Religions throughout history have used "holy scripture" to control people. It's interesting to compare many different religious texts, and perhaps coming to your own truth, and deriving multiple ideas from all of them, and- making your own philosophy? Who knows?All I know, is that there is so much unknown things out there, and who knows how much creatures in the bottom of the sea we haven't discovered yet. It's cool to think about.

>>545988925Actually catholics go to hell for idolatry (praying and burning incense for statues of ishtar who they pretend is Mary) and sorcery (communing with the dead). Also for pretending the apocrypha is canon when it contradicts the real 66 books of the Bible. Also believing in 50 year old nonsensical doctrines like papal infallibility that make no sense because popes and apostolic fathers contradict each other and make decrees that are the opposite of one another all the time. Imagine beliving the Borgias pope was infallible, having prostitutes in the vatican and such. Despicable worldly and paganistic false disciples.

>>545990663Cool. Now explain the mosaics at Bar Huqoq, Dura Europos, and Beit Alfa synagogues where all the Israelites are depicted as white.
>>545990934For a long time, the dominant scientific consensus was that organic soft tissues, including cartilage and collagen, could not physically survive for millions of years. Standard biochemistry models and textbook math regarding protein degradation estimated that under normal environmental conditions, these organic structures should completely break down within thousands or tens of thousands of years. Because of this, the automatic assumption in paleontology was that ancient fossils had to be entirely mineralized into stone, meaning no one actively looked for surviving soft tissues.This long-held paradigm was completely shattered when paleontologists began discovering flexible soft tissue, blood vessels, and eventually 75-million to 115-million-year-old cartilage cells preserved inside dinosaur fossils. These findings initially sparked massive skepticism and debate within the scientific community because they directly violated the established mathematical decay models. To explain how these tissues beat the expected expiration date, scientists had to revise their understanding of fossilization, ultimately discovering that rare chemical processes—such as iron-mediated preservation and tight mineral encapsulation—can act as natural time capsules that stop the standard decay clock entirely.
>>545990598christcucks can't admit there are any errors at all in their bible, because their religion is based on the entire thing being divinely inspired
>>545990983The pale skin tones seen in certain panels of these synagogues do not represent modern concepts of race or white identity. Instead, they reflect artistic blueprints of the Greco-Roman world, the limitations of provincial stone mosaics, and a symbolic visual language where color was utilized for narrative clarity rather than ethnic realism
