For now we see through a mirror in a riddle

To answer these riddles, one must have a view of what each of the four gospels represent. Clearly, there are consistent and meaningful differences that identify each gospel with specific different works of Yahweh. For example, Matthew is uniquely the gospel that bears witness of two, in contrast to one. In Matthew there were two demoniacs that came to Yahshua, in contradiction to Mark and Luke where in the same account there was in each case only one demoniac (Matthew 8:28, Mark 5:2, Luke 8:27).

In Matthew there were two blind men at Jericho following Yahshua and crying out to Him for mercy, once again in contradiction to Mark and Luke where in the same account at Jericho there was only one (Matthew 20:30, Mark 10:46, Luke 18:35). Then finally a third witness to this double phenomenon in Matthew, we find that Yahshua rode in on a donkey and a colt, and "on them He sat." While there are two donkeys in Matthew, in Mark and Luke Yahshua rode into Jerusalem on only one - "a colt" (Matthew 21:7, Mark 11:7, Luke 19:35).

These repeated contradictions cannot in any way be accidental, erroneous, or incidental. Granted they and all the other contradictions have the appearance of being errors, but this is not the case if in fact the four gospels represent four striking separate works of Yahweh, which they do. This "hidden" meaning can be the only justification that these contradictions are in fact equally the intended writings of God. So once again, what is the riddle Yahweh has given us here?

What is the meaning of the doubling of characters in Matthew, in contradiction to Mark and Luke where they are singles?" ibid

Not sure if this helps and you may already see it but the two (the donkey and the Colt are the two covenants.(the Old Testament and the new)( the donkey and the colt) Why both in Matthew, maybe because of who Matthew is spoken to. Then the others only one(the colt) the new covenant. Who are they spoken to? What is being shown?

In Mark 11:2-4 the colt is found tied by "a door" and loosed where "two paths" meet. The Old and the new. "And saith unto them, Go your way into the village over against you: and as soon as ye be entered into it, ye shall find a colt tied, whereon never man sat; loose him, and bring him . [3] And if any man say unto you, Why do ye this? say ye that the Lord hath need of him; and straightway he will send him hither. [4] And they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door without in a place where two ways met; and they loose him."

Right after the spies checked out Canaan and came back grumbling (save for Joshua and Caleb), the Lord sent Israel back to the wilderness by the way of Yam-sup (Numbers 14:25, Deuteronomy 1:40). Right after the destruction of certain Canaanite cities, and in order to avoid Edom, Israel set out from Mount Hor by the way of Yam-sup (Numbers 21:4). The same events are told in Deuteronomy, except that in this account, Israel both set out for the wilderness by the way of Yam-sup, and milled around Mount Seir for many days (Deuteronomy 2:1)..." The amazing name Yam-sup: meaning and etymology

Began reading but will finish later. An odd passage:

Acts 27:38-41
[38] And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, and cast out the wheat into the sea. [39] And when it was day, they knew not the land: but they discovered a certain creek with a shore, into the which they were minded, if it were possible, to thrust in the ship. [40] And when they had taken up the anchors, they committed themselves unto the sea, and loosed the rudder bands, and hoised up the mainsail to the wind, and made toward shore. [41] And falling into a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground; and the forepart stuck fast, and remained unmoveable, but the hinder part was broken with the violence of the waves.

“Where two seas met” odd. Acts 27:13-15,35 [13] And when the south wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, loosing thence , they sailed close by Crete. [14] But not long after there arose against it a tempestuous wind, called Euroclydon. [15] And when the ship was caught, and could not bear up into the wind, we let her drive.

35 was omitted, not sure if it matters to your point though.

No point. You can read a passage multiple times and then one day something else is seen and it causes you to pause. Your post brought it up again, that’s all.

Paul shipwrecked at Malta, where the 'two seas met.' He hit a REEF. There were heavy currents and high waves clashing on BOTH SIDES of the same sea (TWO SIDES = TWO SEAS) of the reef.

ah, i thought of that, but saw no connection at all, so you would have to connect them more for me i guess
cool regardless tho

Euroclydon was an interesting half-hour, guess the term is falling out of many Trans now

A contradiction is an invitation to ask God questions. Like any other relationship: two communicate and share and discuss. As Moses asked so should we, and God responds because that is what relationship is. It is not second-hand but going to the Author and Creator directly.

This is my persuasion also and incidentally, Jesus making as if he would have passed them by as they toiled says to me that God does not impose. He comes near, he encourages and waits for an invitation. I'm sure I can learn something here.
