To YHWH: Error the Livestock Are Dead!

Exodus Chapter 12:14-30

This is the second part of the Passover night.  YHWH is giving Moses the commands of what the Israelites must do in 14 days to be spared the plague of the first born.  YHWH promises that if the people do spread the blood of the sacrificial lamb on their doorframe no one will be killed in that house.  But then YHWH goes further.  The celebration of the Passover must be celebrated every year forever.  This is still practiced today by the Jewish faith, and seems to coincide with YHWH proscription fairly well.  As soon as YHWH finishes the commandments for what to do in 14 days:

Exodus 12:6 Take care of them until the fourteenth day of the month, when all the people of the community of Israel must slaughter them at twilight.

Exodus 12:21 Then Moses summoned all the elders of Israel and said to them, “Go at once and select the animals for your families and slaughter the Passover lamb.

Here is another blatant error in the Word of God.  Within the same chapter, even the same conversation, the story jumps two weeks.  You can rationalize this one as well, by claiming that Moses waited until the Day of Passover and at twilight to tell the Israelites what to do.  But then you would be forgetting YHWH commandment to select the animal take care of it for 14 days!  The Word of God is not perfect.  The Word of God has been altered or poorly written from its original.  As a result, a perfect YHWH, did not secure his transmitted Word to man.  This then means that the Word of God (the Bible) cannot be used as a source of YHWH’s will.  It is only a Tradition of Man!

The actual Passover is still riddled with the same error about the livestock.  When YHWH strikes down the firstborn even the livestock are affected, yet al the livestock in Egypt have been dead for at least 21 days.

Exodus 9:6 And the Lord did it: All the livestock of the Egyptians died, but not one of the animals belonging to the Israelites died.

Exodus 12:29 At midnight the Lord struck down all the firstborn in Egypt, who sat on the throne, to the firstborn of the prisoner, who was in the dungeon, and the firstborn of all the livestock as well.

How can a perfect being with the unaltered perfect Word repeat the same mistake over and over?  How can we puny humans trust a Book that has been contaminated with the Traditions of Men?  How can humans know which parts of the Word of God has not been altered?
