Discuss 2 Chronicles 22


2 Chronicles 22 KJV Bible discussions
 
  • Isaiahj - 1 week ago
    2 Kings 8:26 Ahaziah was 22 years old when he began his reign after his father died.

    2 Chronicles 22:2 Ahaziah was 42 when he began his reign.

    I've heard numerous explanations; I am looking for a consensus viewpoint.

    Was there a mistranslation as it was supposed to say "Sum of Years" as in the 42 years of reign that had passed since the house of Omri. Or was it mistranslated and intended to say 22 years like 2 Kings. Or is there another explanation.

    hello,

    please help me reconcile this contradicition??? i love the KJV, here it is:

    According to 2 Kings 8:26, Ahaziah was 22 years old when he began to reign, and reigned for one year in Jerusalem.

    2 Chronicles 22:2 gives his age as 42 years when his reign began in Jerusalem.

    which is it?

    Joe: If you have read the Bible you surely would have picked the condradiction's up. However if you haven't then I will enlighten you. Let me just say that the references that I'm about to quote may not be in your Bible as there are many Bibles available on the market that are used by different Christian sects each claiming that their Bible is translated as the word of God.The references I will quote comes from the Tyndale Bible.
    Jeremiah 8:8
    "How can you say we are wise because we have the the word of the Lord, when your teaches have twisted it by writing Lies"
    The Condradiction's In the Bible start from;
    In 2 Samuels 8:4 it reads
    "David captured 1700 charioteers and 20,000 foot solders, he crippled all the chariots except enough for 100 chariots".
    Now read
    1 Chronicles 18:4
    "David captured 1000 chariots, 7000 charioteers and 20,000 foot solders. He crippled all the chariots horses except for 100 chariots".
    Other examples are;
    2 Samuels 8:9-10
    1 Chronicles 18:9-10

    2 Kings 8:26
    2 Chronicles 22:2

    2 Samuels 6:23
    2 Samuels 21:8

    Genisis 6:3
    Genisis 9:29

    John 5:37
    John 14:9

    John 5:31
    John 8:14
    You see Jo All doctrines of modern Christianity are made by man. They are definitely not quotes from the bible For example;
    The Trinity, Divine Son ship Of Jesus Christ, Original sin and atonement.
    Jesus as he says in
    John 8:28 "I do nothing of myself"
    John 14:28 "My father is greater than I"
    Mark 12:29 "The Lord is ONE lord"
    Mark 13:32 "No one knows the day or hour when these things will happen not even the angles in heaven or the SON himself, ONLY THE FATHER KNOWS"
    The word Trinity is not Biblical nor is it used in any Bibles or Bible dictionaries. Trinity was never specifically mentioned by Jesus. The formation of the word "Trinity"was presented by Athenasius, an Egyptian Deacon from Alexandria and was accepted by the council of Nicea more than three centuries after Jesus had departed from this earth.
    Other such "Man made" decisions of the council contributed to the declaration of the Roman Sunday as the Christian Sabbath, and the establishment of December 25th as Jesus birthday. This was done in order to have a celebration that occurred on the same day as the birthday of the pagan gods such as Nimrod (Babylon god) Krishna, (Hindus god), Mithra (Greek god) and Dionysius (Bacchus of greece)who is named the only begotten son of Jupiter and was born of the virgin mother Demeter, on the 25th of December. As you can see the celebration of the birth of Jesus is clearly an idea of pagan decent. As clear as we can read in black and white the Bible forbids even the decoration of christmas trees;
    Jeremiah 10:3-4 "Their ways are fertile and foolish. They cut down a tree and a craftsman carves an idol". "They decorate it with gold and silver and than fasten it securely with hammer and nails so it won't fall over".
    The conclusions to my recent research on religion is that we so called true Christians are not even close to abiding by Gods laws, far from it. We are such Hippocrates.
    I hope this helps Jo, May God give you blessings

    Anonymous if you would read 2 Chronicles 22:2 it reads: Ahaziah was 22 years oldwhen he became king and reigned in Jerusalem one year. God bless.
