Contradictions and Paradoxes in Daniel 9:21

Check out Contradictions Catalog of Daniel 9:21 for the comprehensive list of verses that contradicts Daniel 9:21. Some key contradictions and paradoxes are described below.

According to the prophet Daniel, while he was praying, an angel named Gabriel, who he had seen before in a vision, came flying quickly to him around the time people usually offer evening prayers. Christians often see this as a special moment when God sends messages through His angels to help and guide people.

Daniel 9:21: Yea, whiles I [was] speaking in prayer, even the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening oblation. [swiftly: Heb. with weariness, or, flight]

Contradiction with Amos 3:7

This verse suggests God does nothing without revealing it to prophets, which may imply God’s design that Gabriel's revelation to Daniel was not spontaneous.

Amos 3:7: Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.

Contradiction with 1 Corinthians 14:33

Depicts God as not the author of confusion, while Daniel 9:21 references an angelic encounter that may be difficult to understand clearly.

1 Corinthians 14:33: For God is not [the author] of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints. [confusion: Gr. tumult, or, unquietness]

Contradiction with John 1:18

States that no one has seen God at any time, contrasting with the very direct divine encounter facilitated by Gabriel around the time of the evening oblation.

John 1:18: No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared [him].

Contradiction with Galatians 1:8

Warns against receiving a gospel or message from an angel that differs from the one already received, potentially contradicting divine messages through angels like Gabriel.

Galatians 1:8: But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
