Contradiction with 2 Chronicles 22:9

This verse states that Ahaziah was buried in Jerusalem because he was the son of Jehoshaphat, which contradicts 2 Kings 9:28 where it says Ahaziah was buried in the city of David.

2 Chronicles 22:9: And he sought Ahaziah: and they caught him, (for he was hid in Samaria,) and brought him to Jehu: and when they had slain him, they buried him: Because, said they, he [is] the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought the LORD with all his heart. So the house of Ahaziah had no power to keep still the kingdom.

Paradox #1

The contradiction of 2 Kings 9:28 is related to a discrepancy with another verse in the Bible, specifically 2 Chronicles 22:9. The conflict lies in the differences in the account of where King Ahaziah died. 2 Kings states that Ahaziah's body was brought to Jerusalem, while 2 Chronicles suggests he was buried in Samaria. This creates a contradiction regarding the location of his burial.
