Copyist error? ( Yea Right!!)
-------------


And David took from him a thousand chariots, and seven hundred(may-aw') horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen: and David houghed all the chariot horses, but reserved of them for an hundred chariots. (2 Samuel 8:4)

                                               
                                                       Compare with 


And David took from him a thousand chariots, and seven thousand(eh'-lef) horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen: David also houghed all the chariot horses, but reserved of them an hundred chariots. (1 Chronicles 18:4)

--------------------


I don't see how a bad copier would explain it, since the same Hebrew word is not used in both passages. Had the same Hebrew word been used, then a bad copier would seem to explain it. So how is it a copyist error?

Contradiction was Amasa's father a Ishmaelite or Israelite?

Abigail was the mother of Amasa, whose father was Jether the Ishmaelite. (1 chronicles 2:17)
            
                                                                       contradiction


And Absalom made Amasa captain of the host instead of Joab: which Amasa was a man's son, whose name was Ithra an Israelite, that went in to Abigail the daughter of Nahash, sister to Zeruiah Joab's mother. (2 samuel 17:25)


(Talmud also confirms  that one text says Israelite and the other Ishmaelite)


Doeg raised before them all those objectionsfrom the others who are disqualified from entering into the congregation, and they were silent, not knowing how to respond. Doeg then wanted to proclaim that David was disqualified from entering into the congregation. He was immediately answered. Here it says: “Now Amasa was the son of a man, whose name was Jithra the Israelite, that went into Abigal the daughter of Nahash” (II Samuel 17:25), andyet elsewhere it is written that Amasa’s father was named “Jether the Ishmaelite”(I Chronicles 2:17)..... 

(Talmud Yevamot 77a:1)


More contradictions

When Esau was forty years old, he married Judith daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and also Basemath daughter of Elon the Hittite. (Genesis 26:34)

From the above verse we can cleary read basemath was the daughter of Elon the Hittite. However a few chapters later the same basemath become the daughter of Ishmael.


also Basemath daughter of Ishmael and sister of Nebaioth. (Genesis 36:3)
