The Bible isn't perfect , it's God's word in Men .

Imagine a teacher teaching you something and you write the notes down , while your teachers teaching is perfect , your notes might contain some small errors here and there ...

An example would be in Luke how some historical data seems a little "off" , the reader has to understand that Luke was this educated dude writing to Theophilus about Jesus , and also , he gathered information from various sources like a historian . It wouldn't be surprising that some data is slightly , only slightly "off" (E.g. the Census)

Also , regarding the supposed "contradictions" of who visited the tomb on the third day , we get to make a really fine analogy and argument for the empty tomb here :

For example ,
I gather 4 people and ask them what they saw at a certain area at a certain place .

Boy X tells me that he saw Rachel Law wearing a red shirt walking into Vincci
Boy Y tells me that he saw Rachel Law and Li Yen both wearing red stripped shirts walking into a shoe shop
Boy S tells me that he saw a girl walking into Vincci .
Boy Z tells me that he saw Li Yen walking into a store .

So what can we deduce from it ? Because the witnesses testimonies apparently "contradict" each other . When actually , they don't . In the scenario above , we can deduce that SOMEONE walked into Vincci . We might not know whether or not it's Rachel alone , or Rachel and Li Yen , but we do get to know who went into where .

Might be a weak analogy , but I hope you get the point .


Hey don't blame me for coming up with weird analogies :P
