Contradiction with Isaiah 64:8
Deuteronomy 32:6 questions Israel's appreciation and recognition of God as Father, yet Isaiah 64:8 acknowledges God unambiguously as the Father and the potter, suggesting recognition and acceptance.
Isaiah 64:8: But now, O LORD, thou [art] our father; we [are] the clay, and thou our potter; and we all [are] the work of thy hand.
Contradiction with Psalm 103:13
Deuteronomy 32:6 implies Israel's lack of awareness of God as Father, whereas Psalm 103:13 highlights God’s compassion and paternal care towards His children, suggesting a recognized relationship.
Psalm 103:13: Like as a father pitieth [his] children, [so] the LORD pitieth them that fear him.
Contradiction with Malachi 1:6
While Deuteronomy 32:6 questions whether God is truly regarded as a Father, Malachi 1:6 explicitly addresses the failure to honor God as a father, acknowledging His fatherhood clearly.
Malachi 1:6: A son honoureth [his] father, and a servant his master: if then I [be] a father, where [is] mine honour? and if I [be] a master, where [is] my fear? saith the LORD of hosts unto you, O priests, that despise my name. And ye say, Wherein have we despised thy name?
Contradiction with Romans 8:15
Deuteronomy 32:6 depicts Israel's failure to acknowledge God as Father, whereas Romans 8:15 speaks about receiving the Spirit of adoption, where believers call God "Abba, Father," signifying acceptance and recognition.
Romans 8:15: For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
Paradox #1
Deuteronomy 32:6 may point out a contradiction or inconsistency in how people can forget or ignore the care and guidance they've received. This reflects a conflict between acknowledging past blessings and acting as if they were self-sufficient or independent. This tension between dependence on support and acting ungrateful or forgetful can be seen as a moral inconsistency.
