"Who prophesied about Potter’s Field?" (Alleged Contradiction #E9769)
Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value; And gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord appointed me.
Matthew 27:9-10
And I said unto them, If ye think good, give me my price; and if not, forbear. So they weighed for my price thirty pieces of silver. And the LORD said unto me, Cast it unto the potter: a goodly price that I was prised at of them. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them to the potter in the house of the LORD.
Zechariah 11:12-13
Response
The Bible says Jeremiah spoke this prophecy: it does not say he wrote it down in the Old Testament book of Jeremiah. Obviously, not everything that Jeremiah said throughout his life would be able to fit into the Old Testament.
