Contradiction with Numbers 23:19
This verse states that God does not change His mind, while 1 Samuel 19:6 shows Saul changing his mind about harming David.
Numbers 23:19: God [is] not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do [it]? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?
Contradiction with James 1:17
This verse suggests that God is unchanging, contradicting the changeable nature of human intentions as seen in Saul's decision.
James 1:17: Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
Contradiction with Malachi 3:6
God’s unchanging nature is contrasted with Saul repeatedly changing decisions throughout his reign.
Malachi 3:6: For I [am] the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.
Contradiction with Hebrews 13:8
Jesus Christ's constancy contrasts with Saul's fluctuating decisions as depicted in 1 Samuel 19:6.
Hebrews 13:8: Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
Paradox #1
One possible contradiction in 1 Samuel 19:6 could be the inconsistency in character behavior. The verse describes a change of mind, where a previously harmful intent is reversed. This could conflict with the idea of steadfastness or reliability in actions and decisions, as it shows unpredictability in moral choices.
