Contradiction with Numbers 18:2-3
While 1 Chronicles 6:48 mentions Levites assisting, Numbers 18:2-3 explicitly states only Aaron and his sons can handle priestly duties, potentially causing contradiction over roles.
Numbers 18:2-3: And thy brethren also of the tribe of Levi, the tribe of thy father, bring thou with thee, that they may be joined unto thee, and minister unto thee: but thou and thy sons with thee [shall minister] before the tabernacle of witness.
Contradiction with Hebrews 7:11-12
1 Chronicles 6:48 outlines Levitical duties, whereas Hebrews speaks of a change in priesthood, potentially contradicting the continuity of Levitical roles.
Hebrews 7:11-12: If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need [was there] that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?
Contradiction with 2 Chronicles 29:34
Implies an inadequacy of priests, causing Levites to assist in sacrifices, potentially contradicts assigned specific Levitical duties in 1 Chronicles 6:48.
2 Chronicles 29:34: But the priests were too few, so that they could not flay all the burnt offerings: wherefore their brethren the Levites did help them, till the work was ended, and until the [other] priests had sanctified themselves: for the Levites [were] more upright in heart to sanctify themselves than the priests. [did help...: Heb. strengthened them]
Contradiction with Acts 6:4
Focuses on prayer and ministry of the word rather than temple services, presenting a shift in religious roles from those described in 1 Chronicles 6:48.
Acts 6:4: But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.
Contradiction with Ezekiel 44:11-13
Details restrictions on the Levites due to past iniquities, potentially conflicting with the honored assistance role shown in 1 Chronicles 6:48.
Ezekiel 44:11-13: Yet they shall be ministers in my sanctuary, [having] charge at the gates of the house, and ministering to the house: they shall slay the burnt offering and the sacrifice for the people, and they shall stand before them to minister unto them.
