Contradictions and Paradoxes in Daniel 4:28

This verse, "Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall," contradicts Daniel 4:28 because it provides a warning against pride, which is the reason for Nebuchadnezzar's downfall following his boastful declaration in Daniel 4:28.

This verse, "Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up," contradicts Daniel 4:28 as it emphasizes humility and submission before God, while Daniel 4:28 describes the onset of Nebuchadnezzar's pride and lack of humility.

This verse, "Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time," contrasts with Daniel 4:28 by highlighting the importance of humility, whereas Daniel 4:28 sets the stage for the consequences of Nebuchadnezzar's arrogance.

This verse, "For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted," contrasts with Daniel 4:28, which is associated with self-exaltation leading to Nebuchadnezzar's humiliation.

This verse, "When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom," contradicts Daniel 4:28 as it warns that pride brings shame, which aligns with the impending outcome for Nebuchadnezzar in Daniel 4, in contrast to the initial context of Daniel 4:28.
