Page "Matthew 1:11" Paragraph 11
from
Wikipedia
Jeconiah, who is already listed in Matthew 1: 12, sometimes has his name written as Jehoiachin making it possible that the author of Matthew or a later scribe confused him with his father Jehoiakim.
In Irenaeus ' Latin version of this text Jehoiakim's name appears, but this is the only piece of textual evidence for this theory.
Josiah is believed to be Jeconiah's grandfather rather than father, and having the listing of Jeconiah as two separate people would correct the seeming error in Matthew 1: 17.
Albright and Mann believe the author of Matthew mentioned the brothers, despite there having nothing to do with Jesus ' genealogy, because they are prominently mentioned in Chronicles.
