Contradiction with Nehemiah 7:69
This verse lists 435 camels, compared to 435 camels mentioned in Ezra 2:67, showing a contradiction in the number.
Nehemiah 7:69: [Their] camels, four hundred thirty and five: six thousand seven hundred and twenty asses.
Paradox #1
Ezra 2:67 mentions a specific number of animals. The contradiction or inconsistency might arise if this number does not match similar accounts, such as those found in Nehemiah 7:69, which records the same inventory but might list different numbers. Such discrepancies could lead to confusion or questioning about the accuracy of the records.
