Summary
First we'll talk about why it is literally impossible for the Bible to contain actual contradictions. Then let's go to the Bible to address the following supposed contradictions in the Bible, cited by historian Marko Marina, Ph.D, at Bart Ehrman's website (https://www.bartehrman.com/contradictions-in-the-bible). 1. The Two Creation Accounts: Genesis 1:1–2:3 (cosmic, structured, 7-day creation sequence) vs. Genesis 2:4–25 (a more anthropocentric story)2. The Number of Animals on the Ark: Genesis 6:19–20 (two of every kind) vs. Genesis 7:2–3 (seven pairs of clean, two unclean)3. The Death of Saul: 1 Samuel 31:4 (fell on his sword) vs. 2 Samuel 1:10 (Amalekite killed him)4. God or Satan Inspired the Census: 2 Samuel 24:1 (God incited David) vs. 1 Chronicles 21:1 (Satan incited David)5. Jesus’ Genealogy: Matthew 1:1–17 vs. Luke 3:23–38 – different names, different lineage paths6. The Voice at Jesus’ Baptism: Matthew 3:17 (spoken to crowd) vs. Mark 1:11, Luke 3:22 (spoken to Jesus)7. How Many Rooster Crows? Mark 14:30 (before rooster crows twice) vs. Matthew 26:34, Luke 22:34, John 13:38 (before it crows once)8. Judas' Death: Matthew 27:5 (hanged himself) vs. Acts 1:18 (fell headlong and burst open)9. The Day Jesus Died: Synoptics: Passover day (Nisan 15) vs. John: day before Passover (Nisan 14)10. The Resurrection Visitors: Varies across Matthew 28, Mark 16, Luke 24, and John 20Sources:https://learn.ligonier.org/articles/does-last-supper-chronology-differhttps://biblehub.com/q/why_do_gospel_resurrection_details_differ.htmhttps://netbible.org/bible/Genesis+2https://biblehub.com/q/animals_on_noah's_ark.htmhttps://www.gotquestions.org/death-of-Saul.htmlhttps://defendinginerrancy.com/bible-solutions/1_Chronicles_21.1.phphttps://carm.org/if-jesus-is-god-in-flesh-why-did-he-not-…
