Contradiction with Exodus 20:3
This verse contradicts 2 Kings 10:28 by commanding the worship of no other gods, contrasting Jehu's actions, which removed Baal worship but did not fully turn Israel to worship the LORD alone.
Exodus 20:3: Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
Contradiction with 1 Kings 15:14
This verse contradicts 2 Kings 10:28 because it mentions that the high places were not removed, whereas 2 Kings 10:28 describes the destruction of Baal worship.
1 Kings 15:14: But the high places were not removed: nevertheless Asa's heart was perfect with the LORD all his days.
Contradiction with 2 Chronicles 20:33
This verse contradicts 2 Kings 10:28 as it indicates that high places remained, similar to the context of incomplete religious reforms despite removing Baal worship entirely.
2 Chronicles 20:33: Howbeit the high places were not taken away: for as yet the people had not prepared their hearts unto the God of their fathers.
Contradiction with Acts 17:29
This verse implies a rejection of man-made idols in worship, contradicting the tolerance of other idols or high places in Israel despite the elimination of Baal worship, as seen in 2 Kings 10:28.
Acts 17:29: Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device.
Paradox #1
The verse describes the elimination of a particular form of worship. The contradiction could arise if the person ending this practice uses violent or unethical means, which might conflict with broader teachings in religious texts that emphasize peace and compassion. Such actions could be seen as inconsistent with the values of love and mercy.
