Contradiction with Exodus 20:17
This verse contradicts 2 Samuel 13:4 as it commands not to covet your neighbor's wife, highlighting a prohibition against desiring something unlawfully, unlike Amnon's desire for Tamar.
Exodus 20:17: Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that [is] thy neighbour's.
Contradiction with Matthew 5:28
This verse contradicts 2 Samuel 13:4 as it teaches that looking at a woman lustfully is akin to committing adultery in the heart, opposing Amnon's intention.
Matthew 5:28: But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
Contradiction with 1 Corinthians 6:18
This verse contradicts 2 Samuel 13:4 by urging believers to flee from sexual immorality, contradicting Amnon’s expression of desire.
1 Corinthians 6:18: Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
Paradox #1
The contradiction in this context could be seen in the principles of love and respect juxtaposed with deceit and manipulation. The verse involves a suggestion to deceive and manipulate a situation to satisfy selfish desires, which conflicts with the moral teachings of honesty, respect, and genuine care for others.
