Contradiction with Matthew 7:17
This verse states that good trees bring forth good fruit, while Deuteronomy 32:32 describes a people whose vine is of the vine of Sodom, suggesting corruption and bad fruit, contradicting the nature of good yielding from good.
Matthew 7:17: Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
Contradiction with Luke 6:44
This verse claims that every tree is known by its own fruit, implying a direct correlation between the nature of the tree and the fruit it bears, which contrasts Deuteronomy 32:32 as it speaks of vines producing corrupt yield.
Luke 6:44: For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes. [grapes: Gr. a grape]
Contradiction with Galatians 5:22-23
These verses describe the fruits of the Spirit as love, joy, peace, etc., contrasting with the corrupt fruit mentioned in Deuteronomy 32:32, which reflects a divergent moral outcome.
Galatians 5:22-23: But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
Paradox #1
Deuteronomy 32:32 describes a contrast between two groups or peoples based on their actions or nature. The contradiction could arise when comparing this with verses that promote love, forgiveness, or commonality among all humans. If one sees this verse as promoting divisiveness or exclusion, it might conflict with the broader message of unity and love found elsewhere in religious texts.
