Contradiction with Matthew 19:19
1 Kings 15:13 describes removing the queen mother for idolatry, while Matthew 19:19 emphasizes honoring one's father and mother, suggesting a contradiction in honoring parental figures regardless of their actions.
Matthew 19:19: Honour thy father and [thy] mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
Contradiction with Exodus 20:12
This verse commands honoring parents, which contradicts the actions described in 1 Kings 15:13, where the queen mother is removed from her position.
Exodus 20:12: Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
Paradox #1
1 Kings 15:13 mentions King Asa dealing with his grandmother Maacah, possibly creating a contradiction or inconsistency since other biblical passages, like 2 Chronicles 13:2, describe her as his mother. This discrepancy might be due to translation differences or cultural variations where "mother" might mean "grandmother" in the context.
