According to the author of 2 Chronicles, King Hezekiah kindly encouraged the Levites, who were teaching people about God. They celebrated a big feast for seven days, sharing meals and saying sorry to God for things they had done wrong.

2 Chronicles 30:22: And Hezekiah spake comfortably unto all the Levites that taught the good knowledge of the LORD: and they did eat throughout the feast seven days, offering peace offerings, and making confession to the LORD God of their fathers. [comfortably...: Heb. to the heart of all]

Contradiction with 1 Timothy 2:12

This verse states that women should not teach or assume authority over a man, which contradicts the encouragement in 2 Chronicles 30:22 for the Levites to teach the good knowledge of the Lord, potentially including women as recipients of this teaching.

1 Timothy 2:12: But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

Contradiction with Matthew 23:8-10

These verses emphasize that no one should be called a teacher except Christ, contradicting the idea of Levites teaching in 2 Chronicles 30:22.

Matthew 23:8-10: But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, [even] Christ; and all ye are brethren.

Contradiction with 1 John 2:27

This verse suggests that the anointing received from Christ teaches all things, negating the need for human teaching as described in 2 Chronicles 30:22.

1 John 2:27: But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him. [in him: or, in it]

Contradiction with Acts 17:11

This verse emphasizes individual examination of Scriptures, which contrasts with 2 Chronicles 30:22 where teaching is done by the Levites rather than personal study.

Acts 17:11: These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.
