Line 21: − − == Trivial discrepancies in the English Bible == − − Some cite trivial internal discrepancies in the Bible. Here are four alleged examples, some or all of which may be due to translation or transcription errors: − − * 2 Kings 8:26 says, "Two and twenty years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign...," while 2 Chronicles 22:2 says, "Forty and two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign..." − − * 2 Samuel 6:23 says, "Therefore Michal the daughter of Saul had no child unto the day of her death," while 2 Samuel 21:8 says, "But the king took...the five sons of Michal the daughter of Saul" − − * 1 Samuel 31:4-6 says, "...Saul took a sword and fell upon it. And when his armourbearer saw that Saul was dead and...died with him. So Saul died...," while 2 Samuel 21:12 says, "...the Philistines had slain Saul in Gilboa." − − * Lev 11:20-21 says, "All fowls that creep, going upon all four, shall be an abomination unto you." But fowl, such as chickens, do not walk on four limbs.

*that the wall of [[Jericho]] described in the Bible never existed and that people did not live there as described in the [[Old Testament]]; 19th century archaeologists could not find evidence of that civilization in the biblical time period.
