Contradiction with Ezekiel 33:11
This verse states that God takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked, which contrasts with the fulfilment of all the words spoken against the house of Ahab, resulting in their destruction.
Ezekiel 33:11: Say unto them, [As] I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
Contradiction with 1 Timothy 2:4
This verse expresses that God desires all people to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth, which contradicts the annihilation of Ahab’s family.
1 Timothy 2:4: Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
Contradiction with 2 Peter 3:9
This verse highlights God’s patience and His desire for everyone to repent instead of perishing, contrasting with the execution of judgment on Ahab's descendants.
2 Peter 3:9: The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Contradiction with Jonah 4:2
This verse talks about God's mercy and reluctance to bring calamity, which contradicts the outcome faced by Ahab’s family as asserted in 2 Kings 10:10.
Jonah 4:2: And he prayed unto the LORD, and said, I pray thee, O LORD, [was] not this my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I fled before unto Tarshish: for I knew that thou [art] a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repentest thee of the evil.
Contradiction with Matthew 5:9
This verse calls for peacemakers, contrasting with the fulfillment of judgment and destruction foretold against Ahab's house.
Matthew 5:9: Blessed [are] the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
Paradox #1
The contradiction in this verse could stem from the apparent endorsement of violence as a means to fulfill divine prophecy, which might conflict with ethical teachings against violence and harm. This could be seen as inconsistent with messages of peace and love found elsewhere.
