MARY, A SISTER OF AARON?
The verse in question is;
يَٰٓأُخْتَ هَٰرُونَ مَا كَانَ أَبُوكِ ٱمْرَأَ سَوْءٍۢ وَمَا كَانَتْ أُمُّكِ بَغِيًّۭا

Incidentally, once this contradiction became known, Bible translators tried to
make it disappear. For example, the New Revised Standard Version translates the
Hebrew yisre’eliy in 2 Samuel 17:25 to “Ishmaelite,” and then acknowledges in a discrete
footnote that the correct translation is “Israelite.” Yishma’e’li is “Ishmaelite.” The
evidence against the translators’ integrity is strengthened by the fact that practically any
Bible published prior to the midtwentieth century (including the American Standard
Version of 1901, upon which the RSV and NRSV are based) translate yisre’eliy to
“Israelite.” Only after the scriptural inconsistency was identified was the translation
corrupted to “Ishmaelite.”
By this modern deception, the New Revised Standard Version avoids conflict in
their translation, but not in the source documents. And we would do well to note this
deceit, for will we truly be surprised if future Bible translations attempt to gloss over the
other errors exposed in...
