#4 you have to add numbers together (the problem you had was that in v 9 it was specifying gold while in v11 it ws adding gold and silver together as it says)
A specific purpose that would change the totals between Ezra and Nehemiah and even the totals from some of the peoples but still give the total of the whole assembly as 42360?
#2 there may be a specific purpose for the list so some people may be left out
Mistranslated in two different books?
#3 mistranslated numbers
Then why even devote some lines to half of what was there?

How very convenient - as I said there are no original copies so we don't know exactly what was written.
the 4 in lev was referring to the four animals in the following verses............. omit all italisized words.........they were added by translaters to try to make sense of the hebrew.
then in ezra and nehemia look at this:
1 children of pharoah(v3)...
.....
41 of questionable
israelites................. 652
-Total listed.......... 29818
-Not listed............ 12542
-total of verse 64.. 42360
42 servants, maids........... 7337
43 singing men and
women................... 200
GRAND TOTAL.......... 49897
Did Michal, the daughter of Saul, have any children? II Sam 6:23 - No children while II Sam 21:8 she has 5 sons. Which is it to be?
