For today’s post we will tackle the question the Skeptic Annotated Bible asked: How many of Adin’s offspring returned from Babylon?
Here are the answers which the skeptic believes indicate a Bible contradiction:
454
“the sons of Adin, 454;” (Ezra 2:15, Nehemiah 7:20)
655
“the sons of Adin, 655;” (Nehemiah 7:19)
