For today’s post we will tackle the question the Skeptic Annotated Bible asked: Who was Uzziah’s father?
Here are the answers which the skeptic believes indicate a Bible contradiction:
Joram was Uzziah’s father.
“Asa fathered Jehoshaphat, Jehoshaphat fathered Joram, and Joram fathered Uzziah.” (Matthew 1:8)
Joram was Uzziah’s [Azariah’s] great-great-grandfather.
“Now Solomon’s son was Rehoboam, then Abijah was his son, Asa, his son, Jehoshaphat, his son, 11 Joram, his son, Ahaziah, his son, Joash, his son, 12 Amaziah, his son, Azariah, his son, Jotham, his son,” (1 Chronicles 3:10-12)
(All Scriptural quotation comes from the New American Standard Bible)
