| WHO WAS AMASA'S FATHER? ITHRA OR JETHER? |
| II Samuel 17:25. And Absalom made Amasa captain of the host instead of
Joab: which Amasa was a man's son, whose name was Ithra an Israelite,
that went in to Abigail the daughter of Nahash, sister to Zeruiah Joab's
mother. (KJV)
I Chronicles 2:17. And Abigail bare Amasa: and the father of Amasa was Jether the Ishmeelite. (KJV)
|
| Both Ithra and Jether are variations on the name "Jethro", so they're likely the same person. Not a contradiction. |
