Another significant contradiction in the New Testament relates to the genealogies of Jesus as presented in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke:

1. Matthew's Genealogy (Matthew 1:1-17):
- Matthew traces Jesus' lineage through Joseph, listing 41 generations from Abraham to Jesus.
- The genealogy highlights key figures such as Abraham, David, and the kings of Judah.
- Matthew's genealogy emphasizes Jesus' royal descent from David through Solomon.

2. Luke's Genealogy (Luke 3:23-38):
- Luke provides a different genealogy of Jesus, also tracing it through Joseph but in reverse order.
- Luke's genealogy includes 77 generations from Adam to Jesus, focusing on different names and lineages.
- Luke's genealogy highlights Jesus' connection to humanity through Adam and emphasizes a different line of descent from David through Nathan.

The idea that the genealogies in Matthew and Luke could represent the genealogy of Mary and Joseph is a common theory proposed to reconcile the differences between the two accounts. However, there are some considerations and challenges with this theory:

A. Genealogy of Mary and Joseph:
- While it is possible that one of the genealogies represents Mary's lineage and the other Joseph's lineage, the Gospels do not explicitly state this.
- The genealogies in Matthew and Luke are specifically introduced in the context of Joseph, not Mary.
- Jewish tradition at the time usually traced genealogies through the male line, which makes it less likely for Mary's genealogy to be included in such detail.

B. One Person, Two Genealogies:
- It is uncommon for one individual to have two different genealogies presented in separate accounts.
- The differing genealogies in Matthew and Luke are traditionally understood as tracing the lineage of Joseph (legal father of Jesus in both accounts).

C. Theological and Symbolic Purposes:
- Some scholars suggest that the genealogies serve theological or symbolic purposes rather than strict historical records.
- The genealogies emphasize different aspects of Jesus' identity (royal lineage in Matthew, universal salvation in Luke).

D. My own final verdict:
Matthew wrote based on him wanting Jesus to be of the Royal lineage of David!
Luke on the other hand forced himself to proof that Jesus came to save the world!
Each contradict the other while both mentioning Joseph!

Jesus actually should have no genealogy since he's believed to have no biological father!

Are you aware that Abdullah the supposed father of Mohammed had been dead for more than 4 years before Muhammad was born, medical science has shown that no baby can live more than 15 months in the womb, so it's not possible that Abdullah was the father of Mohammed for Mohammed to have been born 4 years after Abdullah had died. Who is the father of Mohammed?

Obviously Muhammad was not the son of Abdullah like you lie to each other.

He was an illegitimate son of the Quarysh
