Contradictions and Paradoxes in Daniel 9:11

Check out Contradictions Catalog of Daniel 9:11 for the comprehensive list of verses that contradicts Daniel 9:11. Some key contradictions and paradoxes are described below.

According to Daniel, all of Israel did not follow God's rules and turned away from Him, so they are facing bad consequences because they didn't listen to His voice. This happened because they sinned, or did wrong things, against God.

Daniel 9:11: Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, even by departing, that they might not obey thy voice; therefore the curse is poured upon us, and the oath that [is] written in the law of Moses the servant of God, because we have sinned against him.

Contradiction with Ezekiel 18:20

This verse contradicts Daniel 9:11 by stating that individuals are responsible for their own sins, whereas Daniel 9:11 implies collective guilt of Israel.

Ezekiel 18:20: The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.

Contradiction with Jeremiah 31:30

This verse asserts that individuals will die for their own sins, contrasting with the collective punishment implied in Daniel 9:11.

Jeremiah 31:30: But every one shall die for his own iniquity: every man that eateth the sour grape, his teeth shall be set on edge.

Paradox #1

The contradiction in Daniel 9:11 could be seen as the tension between a collective punishment and individual accountability. The verse suggests that an entire group of people suffers consequences for their collective wrongdoing. Some might see this as conflicting with the idea of personal responsibility, where individuals should only be accountable for their own actions, not the actions of others. This could be viewed as unfair or unjust from a moral standpoint.
