* Bible contradictions #03: Who killed Goliath?

1 Samuel 17:4-7:

And there came out from the camp of the Philistines a champion named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span. … The shaft of his spear was like a weaver’s beam …

2 Samuel 21:19:

Then there was another battle with the Philistines at Gob; and Elhanan son of Jaare-oregim, the Bethlehemite, killed Goliath the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.
