8:33Now PlayingResolving an Alleged Biblical Error
In this video, we tackle the alleged error in Paul's mention of the ruler of Damascus in 2 Corinthians. Critics argue that Paul mistakenly referred to a governor under King Aretas, conflicting with historical sources. However, we present three scholarly explanations that showcase the complex political landscape at the time, suggesting Aretas might have briefly controlled Damascus. Through historical analysis and context, we demonstrate why Paul's account remains reliable and should not be dismissed as inaccurate.
