is an attempt to link the king to Asaph, to whom Psalm 78 is attributed, while Psalm 78 contains important messianic prophecies. Raymond E. Brown, and most other scholars feel this is more likely an error than a scheme and most translators of the Bible "correct" Matthew in this verse. Who made the error is uncertain. The author of Matthew could have been working from an incorrect source, he could have made the error himself, or an early copier of the Gospel could have added the letter.
