How many brothers did King David Have?

Where was the Apostle Paul from?

Answer these and there will be more. Please state the verse you found it in unless you just knew it off the top of your head.

According to 1Samual 16:10,11 David was the youngest of eight sons. In apparent contradiction to this 1Chronicles 2:15 states He was the seventh son of Jesse. I question chronicles for this and others reasons. And Paul - well I've written him off as a false apostle. See revelation 2:2

David had seven brothers at one point. One of them may have died or not been a biological son, we aren't sure. By the time of the writing of Chronicles, David had only six brothers.

Paul was from Tarsis.

Yes yes and yes. You have done well.
Now... how much in today's standard mesuremnets is a bath? Then how much is a homer?
How much is a shekel worth?
How much is an ephah?
These are questions that came to me as I read Ezekiel.

I can't tell you how many ounces are in a gallon, so I don't know any of that.

But on a related subject...Have you guys listened to the Jewish rapper 50 shekel?

According to the bible, this was Jesus' last words

Matt.27:46,50: "And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, "Eli, eli, lama sabachthani?" that is to say, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" ...Jesus, when he cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost."

...And this...

Luke23:46: "And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, "Father, unto thy hands I commend my spirit:" and having said thus, he gave up the ghost."

...and this...

John19:30: "When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, "It is finished:" and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost."


They can't be ALL true.
So, which 2 are a lie?
In the bible.

I feel that it was three different authors account of what happend,not as you put it "a lie" I do not feel the bible needs defending thats Gods job. You can either choose to believe it or choose not to the choice is yours.

The measurement questions still go unanswered, but here is a new question, perhaps this will get an answer.
What was the name of the man who carried the cross for Jesus? And where was he from?

The man who carried the cross for Jesus was Simon, from Cyrene.

measurements:

Exodus - A Shekel is 20 gerahs

Ezekiel 45 -
A bath was 10 acres of vineyard and contained the 1-tenth part of a homer. (A homer being 10 baths)
