I’m comparing both Matthew and Luke’s genealogy of Jesus.

Matthew wrote this:

Ram was the father of Amminadab, Amminadab the father of Nahshon… –
Mat 1:3 (NASB)

And Luke wrote this:

the son of Amminadab, the son of Admin, the son of Ram… – Luke 3:33
(NASB)

Matthew didn’t mention Admin. Maybe either one of them made an error while attempting to construct Jesus’ linage from David?
