Who incited David to count the fighting men of Israel?

* God did (2 Samuel 24: 1)
* Satan did (I Chronicles 2 1:1)

God cannot make this kind of errors, it is man who rewritten Bible and changed it.


Please come to the TRUE Holy Book Qur'an.
Remember
There is no god but Allah, Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is the last messenger of Allah.

You answered your own question.
People have the right to believe in whatever they want. Religion is just a form of expression.
What is the definition of "TRUE"?
If you can define truth then you must truly be divine.

There are at least 3 good possibilities to reconcile these verses.

First God did not prevent David being incited, so it could be concluded that He passively was a participant. Both God and Satan had their part in inciting David. Satan was active, and God was passively involved because He allowed it to happen.

Second, some believe that 2 Sam. 24:1 is better translated as "For one moved David against them." Some say the numbering was the cause of God's anger, not the result. After all, without this interpretation, it is not clear why God was angry with Israel.


Third, some note that the word translated as "satan" in 1 Chron. could also be translated as "adversary". Strictly speaking, in this situation, God was Israel’s adversary.

If any one of these (or other) premises COULD BE true, then you have not PROVEN a contradiction in the Bible. In fact, there is reason to believe that at least one of the above is the correct rendering of these verses, so you have proven nothing except that you have failed to do your research.

I have read several of your questions that supposedly show error in the Bible. Most are easier to respond to than this one, and this one was not hard. These are the same things that people have been trying to bring up for thousands of years, and NOT ONE contradiction has ever been proven to be in the Bible.

It appears that you are copying the same old questions trying to get new answers. The only ones this will fool are those who are not very knowledgeable in the Bible in the first place.

You are in error AGAIN

God allowed Satan to test David
(See the Book of Job)

I have a hard time swallowing your "Truth"

Ibrahim Mudaryris

With the establishment of the state of Israel, the entire islamic nation was lost, because Israel is a cancer, spreading in the body of the islamic nation; because the Jews are a virus similar to AIDS. Don't ask Germany what it did to the Jews, since the Jews are the ones who provoked Nazism. In Allahs will, he will get rid of the USA just like he got rid of them. The day will come and we shall rule America, the day will come and we shall rule Britain. Listen to your beloved Muhammed, who tells you about the most dire end for the Jews. The tree and the stone want the Muslim to bring the end to every Jew. The resurrection will not take place until the Muslims fight the Jews, and the Muslims kill them.

Why are they so threatened by Jews? They number only in the millions, while muslims have 1.3 or 1.6 billion. They live in a tiny part of the whole arab world...and they are the greatest threat to society?

Dr. Muhammad Ibrahim Maadi on his weekly TV show PATV, Sept. 12, 2004:

We are waging this cruel war with the brothers of the monkeys and pigs, the Jews and the sons of Zion.

If the Quran is such a scientific miracle and doesnt disagree with any science, then Why does it believe in such an absurd idea that Jews descend from Apes and Pigs, yet they are a higher evolved human? That sounds like something a White Supremecist would say about blacks. Stoopid.

Dr. Ahmad Abu Halabiya, Sharia (Islamic Law) Rulings Council, PA TV, Oct. 13, 2000

The Jews are Jews, whether Lakud or Labor, the Jews are Jews. They are all liars and must be butchered and must be killed.

Ibrahim Mudayris Friday sermon, PA TV May 13, 2005
With the establishment of the State of Israel

Quran
9:29 Fight against those who (1) believe not in Allah, (2) nor in the Last Day, (3) nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger (4) and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (i.e. Islam) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.

3. Quran Says Christians will burn in Hell. 5:72, 73 Surely, they have disbelieved who say: "Allah is the Messiah (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary)." But the Messiah (Jesus) said: "O Children of Israel! Worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord." Verily, whosoever sets up partners in worship with Allah, then Allah has forbidden Paradise for him, and the Fire will be his abode. And for the Zalimun (polytheists and wrongdoers) there are no helpers. Surely, disbelievers are those who said: "Allah is the third of the three (in a Trinity)." But there is no ilah (god) (none who has the right to be worshipped) but One Ilâh (God-Allah). And if they cease not from what they say, verily, a painful torment will befall the disbelievers among them.

You sir, are misreading and misinterpreting the inspired and inerrant written word of God.

In Samuel, the text clearly indicates that David, under stress, chose to trust man, instead of God.

Satan was the the one behind the scenes, who orchestrated the attacks that resulted in David's poor choice.

Samuel is right. Chronicles is right. The Bible is right.

You sir, are 100% wrong.

If you can't get this right, why should we trust your statements about Islam and the Koran?

Please study the following verse from the 1st Epistle of St. John. Perhaps you can discern the true meaning:

1Jo 2:22 Who is a liar, but he who denieth that Jesus is the Christ? This is Antichrist, who denieth the Father and the Son.
1Jo 2:23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father. He that confesseth the Son hath the Father also.

properly, you spoke back component of your question your self, possibly without understanding it, because of the fact as you're saying that's a decision.some adult males do, and a few do not; like breast augmentations. i think of it is common to love what you like, yet as i think approximately who prefer one 'kind' over yet another, maximum adult males are a minimum of slightly enthusiastic with regard to the female kind and all this is staggering curvaceousness. My wager is that once a while has exceeded you will discover that the girl who's linked to those staggering mammalia, would be greater important to you than her outer visual attraction and additionally you are going to adore each little thing approximately her, which contain what ever length and shape her breasts happen to be. On a private word: my decision is the organic boob, because of the fact pretend ones could be too agency and "plastic" and so don't experience as good as a greater yielding kind, i.e.- i like the actual factor merely high quality! I do think of that ladies persons must be happy with themselves and not bow to "societal pressures", yet we the two understand the fact of it fairly is fairly diverse than merely asserting that, and this is greater complicated of an argument than that. you're actual not on my own even nonetheless, if others did not like improvements of this way, women persons does not venture themselves to those techniques. i'm hoping this has helped.
