Contradiction with Ezra 2:43
Ezra 2:47 states that the Nethinims' descendants include the children of Giddel, whereas in Ezra 2:43 the mention is assumed to directly involve a collective reference to temple servants, making the specificity in 2:47 appear contradictory as not all temple servants were distinctly named there.
Ezra 2:43: The Nethinims: the children of Ziha, the children of Hasupha, the children of Tabbaoth,
Contradiction with Nehemiah 7:49
Ezra 2:47 lists the children of Giddel among the Nethinims, while Nehemiah 7:49 slightly alters the list, suggesting discrepancies in the exact count or naming of descendants.
Nehemiah 7:49: The children of Hanan, the children of Giddel, the children of Gahar,
Contradiction with 1 Chronicles 9:2
Ezra 2:47 details specific Nethinims lines, contrasting how 1 Chronicles 9:2 generalizes the returnees as Israelites, priests, Levites, and Nethinims without naming specific families, thereby suggesting possible contradictions in individual family references.
1 Chronicles 9:2: Now the first inhabitants that [dwelt] in their possessions in their cities [were], the Israelites, the priests, Levites, and the Nethinims.
