Check out Contradictions Catalog of Deuteronomy 14:11 for the comprehensive list of verses that contradicts Deuteronomy 14:11. Some key contradictions and paradoxes are described below.

According to Moses, God told the people they could eat birds that are clean, which means safe and okay for them to eat. This was like God giving instructions on what is good to eat, just like how parents help kids choose healthy food.

Deuteronomy 14:11: [Of] all clean birds ye shall eat.

Contradiction with Genesis 1:30

This verse says every beast and bird has been given every green herb for meat, suggesting no restrictions on bird consumption.

Genesis 1:30: And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein [there is] life, [I have given] every green herb for meat: and it was so. [life: Heb. a living soul]

Contradiction with Acts 10:13-15

God tells Peter that it is permissible to eat all animals, contrary to the clean bird restriction in Deuteronomy 14:11.

Acts 10:13-15: And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat.

Contradiction with Mark 7:18-19

Jesus declares all foods clean, which opposes the specific dietary laws in Deuteronomy 14:11.

Mark 7:18-19: Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all meats?

Contradiction with Romans 14:14

Paul states that nothing is unclean in itself, which contradicts the clean versus unclean birds described in Deuteronomy 14:11.

Romans 14:14: I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that [there is] nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him [it is] unclean. [unclean: Gr. common]

Paradox #1

The possible contradiction in this context could be related to dietary laws outlined in religious texts. Some people might see a conflict between these ancient dietary restrictions and modern perspectives on food, ethics, and cultural practices. This can lead to inconsistency when trying to apply ancient rules to today's diverse lifestyle and beliefs.
