I do have a proposed discrepency for you to debate but first I would suggest that this be moved to the Great Debate forum. With only Joralex and Yaro discussing the issue,it will make it much easier for others to follow.
Proposed discrepency - Jehoiachin (aka Jeconiah) son of Jehoiakim.
There are three discrepencies concerning this individual.
First is his age at succession. 2 Kings 24-8 giving his age as 18 and 2 Chron 36-9 giving his age as 8.
Second concerns two different and contradictory prophesies concerning Jeconiah in Jeremiah. Chapter 22 states that Jeconiah will never return to Jerusalem, yet in chapter 28 God is quoted as saying that within 2 years Jeconiah and all the Babylonian captives would be brought back.
Third discrepency concerning Jeconiah is his listing in the genealogy of Jesus in Matt 1 - In the curse ending in Jere 22-30, no desendents of Jeconiah were to sit on the Throne of David
I may have some of my facts wrong, but I do believe that all the issues concerning Jeconiah(Jehoiachin) deserve some looking into.
