Terah's lifespan.
According to Gen 11:26, Terah was 70 when  Abraham  was
born and Abraham was 75 when he left  Haran.  Therefore
he lived 70 years (ie. his age when Abraham  was  born)
plus 75 years (the age of Abraham when he left Haran  -
as stated in Gen 12:4). He did not live beyond this  as
Acts 7:4 states Terah was dead when Abraham left Haran.
So 70 + 75 = 145 years in total.    However, Gen 11:32
states he lived 205 years.

Solomon's reign.
Acts 13:16-22 numbers the years from when  the  Hebrews
left  Egypt  to  David  beginning  his  reign   as   40
(Wilderness) + 450 (Judges) + 40 (Saul)  =  530  years.
According to 1 Chron 29:27, David reigned 40 years,  so
Solomon became king (when David died) 530  +  40  years
(of David's reign) = 570 years.  However, 1  Kings  6:1
states Solomon's 4th year of rule (when  he  began  the
Temple building) was 480 years after the  Hebrews  left
Egypt, ie. he began his rule 476 years after the Hebrews
left. Therefore there is a contradiction of (570 - 476)
94 years.

The anointing and entry into Jerusalem.
Matthew and Mark detail how Jesus rode  into  Jerusalem
in Matt 20:1-13, Mark 11:1-11. It was after  this  that
he was anointed at Bethany -  Matt 26:6-16, Mark  14:3-
11. But in John he is anointed    (12:1-8)  and  it  is
after this that he rides into Jerusalem (12:12-15).
-------------------------------------------------------
The Last Supper.
The Synoptics make it clear this was the Passover  meal
- Matt 26:19, Mark 14:16, Luke 22:13. However in  John,
the meal was held on the  day  before  the  Passover  -
13:29, and after the meal the Passover  had  still  not
begun - 18:28, and after the  trial,  it  was  the  day
("Preparation") for the Passover. The Passover  was  on
the day after Jesus  was  crucified  (ie.  because  the
Passover fell on the Saturday sabbath, it is  therefore
called a 'high day') - John 19:31.

Simon of Cyrene carries Jesus' cross - Matthew 27:32
Jesus carries his cross - John 19:17,18
-------------------------------------------------------
Jesus was physically descended from David - Romans 1:1-
3.
The genealogy in Matt  1:1-16 only  relates  to  Joseph
who  had  nothing  to  do  with  the  conception.   The
genealogy in Luke 3:23-38  again only  mentions  Joseph
and therefore physical Davidic descent  must  be  shown
through Mary - Jesus' only  contact  with  humanity  if
virgin born. However, Luke 1:36 says Mary  was  related
to Elizabeth who was of the Aaronic line (Luke 1:5) and
therefore not the Davidic line, so with  virgin  birth,
Davidic descent, a strict prerequisite for  messiahship
is prevented. In sum, Jesus couldn't be the Christ.
-------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------


Both robbers revile Jesus - Matt 27:44
Only one robber reviles Jesus  and the other believes -
Luke 23:41-43

paradise that day - Luke  23:43
Jesus was in the grave following his death and did  not
ascend to  heaven - Acts 2:24,31, John 20:17
-------------------------------------------------------
God forsakes Jesus - Mark 15:34
Jesus is inseparable from  God  -  John  10:30,  14:10,
16:32
-------------------------------------------------------
The confirmation Jesus is dead.
In Mark 15:43-45, Joseph of Arimathea asks  Pilate  for
Jesus' body, and Pilate is unaware  of  whether  he  is
dead; only after sending a centurion and receiving this
confirmation does he allow Joseph  to  take  the  body.
However  in  John   19:31-33,38,      Pilate   actually
authorises the leg-breaking to  ensure  they  have  all
died and then authorises Joseph to remove the body.
NB. Mark 15:42 states it was evening, ie.  the  sabbath
had already begun (the Jewish 'day' beginning at  6pm),
when Joseph asks for the body. However,  burial was not
allowed on this day,  showing the fictitiousness of the
story.
-------------------------------------------------------
The Resurrection.
Who went to the tomb ? Matthew-2  Marys;  Mark-2  Marys
and Salome; Luke-at least 5 women; John-Mary Magdalene,
What was seen ? Matthew-Earthquake with  angel  sitting
outside on the recently-moved stone; Mark-Stone already
moved  and  a  young  man  sitting  inside;  Luke-Stone
already moved with two men standing inside;  John-Stone
moved. No one seen on 1st visit, but two angels sitting
inside after two earlier visits.
When did the woman/women leave to  go  to  the  tomb  ?
Matthew-Towards dawn; Mark-Very  early;  Luke-At  early
dawn; John-Still dark (NB. John  states  it  was  still
dark when Mary arrived at the tomb).
What did man/men/angel/angels say ?  Matthew-Jesus  was
risen and disciples to go to Galilee; Mark-As  Matthew;
Luke-Jesus had risen: John-Asks why Mary is crying.
What do the women/woman do next  ?    Matthew-they  run
away but meet Jesus who  repeats  angel's  instruction;
Mark-They  flee  and  SAY  NOTHING  TO   ANYONE.   This
obviously contradicts the  other  three  in  which  the
women do go and tell the disciples (original Mark ended
at 16:7); Luke-They go and  tell  disciples;  John-Mary
meets Jesus and they talk.
What  is  1st  conversation  with  the  risen  Jesus  ?
Matthew-Women on way from tomb; Luke-The two  disciples
on road to Emmaus; John-Mary Magdalene.
-------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------


The time  between  the  resurrection  and  ascension  ?
Matthew-At least the time to reach Galilee (60-70 miles
north); Luke-clearly one day only (see 24:13,33,36,50 -
it is made very clear that Jesus  rose,  made  all  his
appearances and ascended back to  heaven  on  the  same
day); John-at least a week accepting  John  20  as  the
original end to the Gospel,  but  with  the    John  21
appendix this means it was even longer as  this  has  a
Galilean appearance; Acts-40 days.
An attempt to  reconcile  John's  visit  of  just  Mary
Magdalene whilst still dark with  the  Synoptics  where
there are several women and it is daytime, is by saying
John's was an earlier one, ie. the one in the Synoptics
was a second one. However this cannot be so  as    John
has Mary Magdalene seeing the empty tomb (20:1) and  in
the Synoptics  when the women go to the tomb  they  ask
about who  would  roll  the  stone  away  (Mark  16:3).
However Mary Magdalene was with them  (Mark  16:1)  and
she had already seen that the stone had been moved away
and therefore they would already know this from her 1st
visit.
Furthermore, Luke makes any appearance at,  or  journey
to Galilee absolutely impossible as it  has  everything
happening in the area of Jerusalem with  the  disciples
being told to  stay  there  until  Pentecost,  and  the
conclusion being Jesus' ascension from nearby Bethany.
This is made clear - in Luke the first appearance is to
the  two  travelling  to  Emmaus  (10  miles  West   of
Jerusalem) and 24:13 states this was "that  very  day";
the two then go "that  same  hour"  to  the  eleven  in
Jerusalem (24:33); Jesus then appears whilst  they  are
still explaning what they had seen (24:36). Jesus  then
tells  them  to  STAY  IN  JERUSALEM  UNTIL   PENTECOST
(24:49).
As Luke 24:51 has the ascension on the same day as  the
resurrection this prevents any Galilean appearances  by
Jesus to the eleven as in Matt and John.
Luke's account makes nonsense of Matt having Jesus tell
the women to instruct the disciples to go up to Galilee
(Matt 28:10) if he was going to see them himself  later
that day (as in Luke and  John),  and  furthermore  see
them in Jerusalem. Also, Luke makes it clear  that  the
eleven were told to stay in Jerusalem from the  day  of
the  resurrection  to  Pentecost,  but  Matt  has  them
travelling up to Galilee (28:16) as does John (21:1ff).
Important to note is Mark  16:7,  ie.  that  the  women
'said nothing to anyone' - all three Gospels contradict
this by them telling the  disciples  which  then  leads
into their accounts. Because  of  Mark  16:7,  this  is
really made impossible.
-------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------



Luke also has Jesus appearing to "the  eleven"  on  the
same day  as  the  resurrection  (24:33-36),  but  John
states Thomas was missing on this appearance and it was
a week later that Jesus actually appeared to all eleven
- with Thomas then being present (20:24,26).
-------------------------------------------------------
The chronology of Paul's life.
                 Acts
(1)Paul converted on the way to Damascus (9:1-8).
(2)He goes to  Ananias  in  Damascus  and  stays  there
'several days' (9:20).
(3)After  'some  time'*,  Paul  goes  to      Jerusalem
(9:23,26) and meets the apostles there (9:27).
(4)Paul preaches in Jerusalem, but due  to  threats  to
kill him, he is sent to  Tarsus (9:30).
(5)Relief to  Jerusalem  and  Judea  taken  by  Paul  &
Barnabas (2nd visit) (11:30)
(6)Paul goes to Jerusalem (3rd time)  (12:25)**
(7)Paul  goes  to   Jerusalem   (3rd   or   4th   time)
(15:1ff).(vii)

                Galatians.
(1)Paul is converted (1:16).
(2)He does not go to Jerusalem, but  to Arabia and then
Damascus (1:17)
(3)After 3 years, Paul goes to Jerusalem, meeting  only
Cephas and James there (1:18-19) staying only 15 days.
(4)He then goes to the regions  of  Syria  and  Cilicia
(1:21).
(5)14 years later, Paul goes to Jerusalem with Barnabas
and Titus (2:1).
(6)Paul confronts Cephas at Antioch   (2:11).
(7)No further information.

* The 'some time' in Acts 9:19 is not clear as  to  how
long this was; different translations render this 'some
time passed' (Jerusalem),  'after  a  number  of  days'
(Moffatt); the literal Greek is "'many' with  the  view
of being sufficient"; however it  is  rendered,  it  is
difficult to reconcile this with the three years of Gal
1:18.
** It is  not  clear  whether  12:25  is  a  return  to
Jerusalem, or a return to Antioch  from  Jerusalem;  if
the former, and the Acts 15 visit  is  the  Gal  2:1-10
one, then in Acts it would be the fourth visit,  whilst
Paul states it was only the second.
Paul's method of counting in  Gal.  is  not  absolutely
clear, ie. whether his 14 years in Gal 2:1 is 14  years
after his starting point in Gal (ie. his conversion) or
14 years after the first Jerusalem visit 3 years  after
his  conversion  which  he  had  mentioned  immediately
beforehand  (ie.  a  total  of  17  years   after   his
conversion).
-------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------


Numerous others problems arise when trying to reconcile
the two accounts, eg.  Acts has Paul in  Jerusalem  and
Judea  in his early life (21:17 then  22:3)  and  as  a
persecutor of  the  church  there  (7:58,  9:1-2,13,21,
26:10) which makes Paul's comment that  (Gal  1:22)  he
was not known by sight by the churches  in  Judea  even
after his time in Jerusalem, Syria and  Cilicia  (1:17-
21) appear impossible.  Furthermore  when  Paul  has  a
dispute with Peter at Antioch about Gentile  fellowship
in Gal 2, why does he not remind him of what was agreed
at the Acts 15 conference on this very subject ?
