Contradiction with 2 Kings 4:43
In this verse, the servant expresses doubt that a small amount of food could feed a hundred men, showing a lack of faith in God's provision, which contrasts with the outcome in 2 Kings 4:44, where the food indeed satisfactorily feeds everyone.
2 Kings 4:43: And his servitor said, What, should I set this before an hundred men? He said again, Give the people, that they may eat: for thus saith the LORD, They shall eat, and shall leave [thereof].
Contradiction with Matthew 14:17-21
In this passage, a small amount of food (five loaves and two fish) miraculously feeds five thousand men, plus women and children, exemplifying abundant miracle provision, similar to but far greater in scale than in 2 Kings 4:44.
Matthew 14:17-21: And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes.
Contradiction with Matthew 6:31-32
These verses emphasize that God knows our needs and will provide for them, highlighting a principle of trusting in divine providence, which contrasts with any initial doubts in 2 Kings 4:44 about whether there would be enough to eat.
Matthew 6:31-32: Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
