Bible contradictions

None of the Gospels has been written by any of the Twelve even, one gathers, please. Right?

"In Christian tradition, the Four Evangelists are Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, the authors attributed with the creation of the four Gospel accounts are anonymous.

No. The first one was written around 50 years, I think, after Jesus died.

None of this makes God less…

Except for Hellfire. The word doesn’t iciest in the Greek. (But that is, for sure, one God-dishonoring doctrine!

Then we have the Trinity. But when you read Exodus 20:1-6 & Deuteronomy 6:4, we find the Israelites only had one God, Yahweh.
And then, on top of all this, God’s Name - the Tetragrammaton - is removed from the Bible! Someone’s trying to defame & discredit Him, using His own Book!

What solid evidence supports this? There is nothing solid to base this on, such a viewpoint is promulgated to discredit the prophecies Jesus gave concerning the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 C.E., to say it was written after the fact.

What Bible are we talking about? There have been different collections of books in the Bible over the course of history by different Christian sects.

At any rate, contradictions only matter if you believe 'the Bible' is inerrant.

Bible contradictions

The Gospels have contradictions because Jesus never wrote the Gospels, so Jesus should not be accused/blamed for these contradictions, please. Right?

Noöne knows who wrote the gospels -- or most of the rest of the Bible, for that matter. Attribution to Matthew, mark, Luke, John, &al. didn't appear in early transcriptions. Later attribution to prestigious persons served to give the writings more authority.

As for contradictions, just google. The web's full of lists.

Scholars give a date range for Mark, the earliest, as 65-75CE.

Let’s compile the contradictions, and let’s try to explain them if possible.

I wonder if that's ever been attempted here before?
