RE: Five Irreconcilable Contradictions in the Bible

in #christianity6 years ago

Dear @gandhibaba,

Once again, there is a logical explanation that evidences there is no contradiction in the two following verses:

And [Judas] cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself. —Matthew 27:5

Now [Judas] purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out. —Acts 1:18

Acts 1:18 describes what occurred after Judas hanged himself in Matthew 27:5. His body began to decay as it hung from the rope. Eventually, his corpse fell, and “burst asunder” when it hit the ground—he literally burst apart.

These were two separate events that happened months apart. Pentecost occurred 50 days after the resurrection of Christ.

Blessings, Steven @lastdays
