Matthew 1:9 — Does It Err in Listing Uzziah as the Father of Jotham?
Matthew 1:9 NTBDC: Was Matthew mistaken when it came to the father of Jotham?
The Bible tells us in 2 Kings 15:1-7 that the father of Jotham was Azariah, while in 2 Kings 15:32 and 34, we are told that Jotham's father is named Uzziah. The Bible critic would claim that the Bible author made a mistake when he listed two different people as the father of Jotham.
