Can the Christmas stories be reconciled?
Can the Christmas stories be reconciled?
It seems I'm unable to convince @Sanoy that he is mistaken about his beliefs so I was seeing if I can get Christians here to back me up.
My belief is that Matthew and Luke are based on Mark and maybe Q. I don't think Luke had access to the complete book of Matthew.
I thought it would be better to start a new topic about this.
Can the Christmas stories be reconciled?
....Matthew and Luke are around 15 years apart. Why would Luke make up a genealogy for Joseph when Josephs genealogy was already established by Matthew '15 years ago?...
....When I say first and second genealogical book, I am moving between Matthew which came first and Luke which came after Matthew.....
Can the Christmas stories be reconciled?
...the first genealogy [Matthew] being known for a long time.....It's inexplicable why they [Luke] would invent genealogical names when a messianic genealogy was already made several decades ago [Matthew].
