'''SALMON'''


'''The Textual Variation''':

3.32 ???? {B}
The original reading appears to be ???? (P4 ?* B syrs, pal copsa, bo mss eth), which copyists later assimilated to ??????, the reading of both the Matthean parallel (Mt 1.4–5) and the Septuagint of 1 Chr 2.11, or to ??????, the reading of ms. B at Ru 4.20 f. (??????, ms. A). In view of the early tradition that Luke was a Syrian of Antioch it is perhaps significant that the form ???? appears to embody a Syriac tradition (the Peshitta version of Ru 4.20 f. reads ???).

'''The Conclusion:'''

Christian copyists changed "Luke's" transliteration to make it agree with "Matthew" and Greek translations of the Jewish Bible:

'''New International Version''' (NIV)

"the son of Salmon,[a] the son of Nahshon,

Footnotes:

Luke 3:32 Some early manuscripts Sala" 

'''New American Standard Bible''' (NASB)

"32(A)the son of Jesse, the son of Obed, the son of Boaz, the son of Salmon, the son of Nahshon," 
 
'''King James Version''' (KJV)

32Which was the son of Jesse, which was the son of Obed, which was the son of Booz, which was the son of Salmon, which was the son of Naasson,"
 
'''American Standard Version''' (ASV)

"32 the son of Jesse, the son of Obed, the son of Boaz, the son of Salmon, the son of Nahshon," 
 
Darby Translation (DARBY)

"32of Jesse, of Obed, of Booz, of Salmon, of Naasson,"


'''Translation Error'''



Joseph

==Con==

The issue here seems to the proper translation, or transliteration, of a proper name from the Hebrew to the Greek and whether Luke used the proper Greek word to translate, or transliterate, the Hebrew name.  What role the copyists may have had in seeking to convey the proper translation, or transliteration, to the reader is unknown regardless of the speculations that have been suggested.  Luke has considerable freedom to freely translate, or transliterate, Hebrew names into Greek and no legitimate error can be attributed to him or to this verse.

==Neutral==

'''OBED'''


'''The English:'''

"the [son] of Jesse, the [son] of Obed, the [son] of Boaz, the [son] of Salmon, the [son] of Nahshon," (ASV)


'''The Greek:'''

"??? ?????? ??? ????? ??? ???? ??? ???? ??? ???????"

"?????"(Obed), 4th word from the Left.


'''The Textual Variation:'''

WH - "?????"

TR - "????"


'''The "Matthew":'''

WH = "?????"

TR = "????"


'''The Hebrew:'''

http://www.mechon-mamre.org/p/pt/pt2904.htm :

?????? 


'''LXX''' - "????" 


'''The JW:'''

As "Matthew" and "Luke" both appear to have originally written "?????" and both were subsequently Edited to "????" (which also agrees with the LXX) we have a Textbook example of '''Intentional''' Change as opposed to random mistake.
