I don't think the bible can ever be brought into harmony and made to be coherent and of one narrative without extra imagination and deliberate interpretations guided by subjective human desire to reach an outcome or to leave out clarity... I think this holds true for most book religions... ignorance of past religious developments and stages of human thought... any written or spoken word can be twisted or simply not passed on... what is truly experienced is undeniable. I think the only divine truth for mankind can be found through grasping it yourself as there is something that has always lead humans to believe in something greater
