Contradiction with Proverbs 22:15
While 1 Kings 1:6 suggests David did not discipline his son Adonijah, Proverbs 22:15 emphasizes the necessity of discipline to drive foolishness from a child.
Proverbs 22:15: Foolishness [is] bound in the heart of a child; [but] the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.
Contradiction with Hebrews 12:6-7
1 Kings 1:6 shows a lack of parental discipline, but Hebrews highlights the importance of Godly discipline as an expression of love and legitimacy.
Hebrews 12:6-7: For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
Contradiction with Proverbs 29:15
This verse indicates that lack of discipline brings shame to a mother, contradicting 1 Kings 1:6 where Adonijah went undisciplined, resulting in negative consequences.
Proverbs 29:15: The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left [to himself] bringeth his mother to shame.
Contradiction with Proverbs 13:24
Suggests that sparing discipline is a lack of love, contradicting the implication of 1 Kings 1:6, where David's lack of discipline could be seen as a lack of guidance or correction.
Proverbs 13:24: He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.
Paradox #1
The contradiction or inconsistency in that verse might be seen in how parental indulgence or lack of discipline can lead to negative outcomes. In this context, failing to address wrong behavior or being overly lenient might result in problems or conflicts later on.
