    Got a lot here, I’ll keep it short and elaborate if needed:

    1. God permitted Satan to incite David. Same thing that is happening in Job.

    2. You cannot see God the Father and live. A better way to dispute this verse is to bring up the whole New Testament where God becomes man. Anyway, Jacob wrestled God the Son. Yes, Jesus chronologically hadn’t been born yet, but He still appears incarnate multiple times throughout the old testament, as He is God and can transcend time.

    3. Copyist error. The Hebrew for brother (אָח) is in 1 Chronicles 20 anyway so it is preserved. It must have just been accidentally left out by a scribe early on. The whole theological meaning of the Bible doesn’t get thrown out because of a simple mistake - you have to realise these are real manuscripts written by men.

    4. Judas hung himself, baked in the son, fell headlong and split open. Matthew was describing what he did to die, Luke (a doctor) was describing how he was found. The field was bought in Judas’s name by the Pharisees. This makes sense as Matthew was a firsthand witness to Jesus’ ministry, Luke would have just been looking at records. The person in the video tries to discount this because Matthew didn’t say that it was in the field- that’s an argument from silence. Matthew also doesn’t say what Judas had for breakfast that morning - does that discount the Gospel accounts?

    5. Matthew doesn’t say that Galilee was the first time they saw Him? The answer is obviously both. Matthew 28:8-10

    So they departed quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to tell his disciples. And behold, Jesus met them and said, “Greetings!” And they came up and took hold of his feet and worshiped him. Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid; go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee, and there they will see me.”

    He appeared to the women before Galilee, and he appears to the disciples before Galilee. Galilee is then where the great commission happens, which is before the Ascension. I also don’t know how the ending of mark is relevant - basically every somewhat modern Bible that isn’t the KJV has a disclaimer there
