I would guess that NotReady is familiar with this supposed contradiction and knows more than I do.

That first link is a disgrace to the field of theology, who gave us the brilliant field of hermeneutics in the first place and gave birth to scientific text analysis.
I also note that the author J.P Holding is a man who specializies in debunking alleged contradictions, and that has a certain notoriority for being a fraud both amongst christian peers peers and others and also that he only holds a masters in library science.
Feel free to link other articles by more respected scholars if you wish.

Note the technique though.
1) NotReady deals with specific contradictions with links to a load of old rope that no-one can take seriously.
2) he claims consistancy is a reason to believe the bible
3) when 2) is questioned he refers us to 1)
good hard sales technique, double glazing anyone? or I've got this rather nice bridge if you're interested.
