As for contradictions in the bible, readers of the Bible have long recognized, analyzed, and discussed these discrepancies, and have come to the important conclusion, that with some basic understanding of ancient languages, literature, history and the [i]cultural[/i] context of that time period, along with careful bible study, it becomes apparent that these inconsistencies are not actually contradictions. This kind of problem is the most commonly found among critics of the Bible. They very often take verses out of context and set them against each other. Our Almighty, perfect God, did not hand down to us, flawed text.
