Yes I know bible and contradictions, it's getting boring now right? Wrong not when you read what I have come up with, a fabulous error lol.. Imagine two books speaking of the same event yet they completely lose the plot... Let's read each passages and spot the difference... ( this is gonna hurt)
While Josiah was king, Pharaoh Necho king of Egypt went up to the Euphrates River to help the king of Assyria. King Josiah marched out to meet him in battle, but Necho faced him and killed him at Megiddo. Josiah’s servants brought his body in a chariot from Megiddo to Jerusalem and buried him in his own tomb. And the people of the land took Jehoahaz son of Josiah and anointed him and made him king in place of his father. (2 kings 23:29-30)
So from the above passage it's crystal clear King Josiah was slain at Magiddo. Servants brought his dead body to Jerusalem. Yet when we read the exact situation from the book of chronicles we find a compete contradictory passage..
---------------
Josiah, however, would not turn away from him, but disguised himself to engage him in battle. He would not listen to what Necho had said at God’s command but went to fight him on the plain of Megiddo.Archers shot King Josiah, and he told his officers, “Take me away; I am badly wounded.” So they took him out of his chariot, put him in his other chariot and brought him to Jerusalem, where he died. He was buried in the tombs of his ancestors, and all Judah and Jerusalem mourned for him. (2 chronicles 35:22-24)
Wait a sec in 2 Chronicles King Josiah was wounded at Magiddo and not killed. His Servants brought him alive to Jerusalem, where he died.
--------------------------------
In short :
2 Kings 23:29-30 tells us King Josiah was slain at Magiddo. Servants brought his dead body to Jerusalem. Whereas 2 Chronicles 35:22-24 He was wounded at Magiddo. Servants brought him alive to Jerusalem, where he died.
Such super blunders and problems are only found in the bible which is supposed to be inspired ! SHAME SHAME!!
