Contradiction with Matthew 10:37
This verse prioritizes love for Jesus above family, which can be seen as conflicting with the emphasis on obedience to parents in Ephesians 6:1.
Matthew 10:37: He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.
Contradiction with Genesis 2:24
This verse emphasizes leaving one's parents to unite with a spouse, suggesting a potential divergence from always obeying parents.
Genesis 2:24: Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
Contradiction with Luke 14:26
Here, Jesus speaks of "hating" one's family in the context of being His disciple, which contrasts with the notion of obedience and implied love in Ephesians 6:1.
Luke 14:26: If any [man] come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.
Contradiction with Colossians 3:20
Although similar to Ephesians 6:1, it extends obedience as "well pleasing unto the Lord," without the specific directive "in the Lord" from Ephesians. The difference might lead to varied interpretations of the conditions for obedience.
Colossians 3:20: Children, obey [your] parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.
Contradiction with Matthew 23:9
Advises against calling any man "your father" on Earth, presenting a different perspective on parental roles compared to Ephesians 6:1.
Matthew 23:9: And call no [man] your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
Paradox #1
The moral conflict in that verse could arise when considering situations where obeying a parent's command might go against one's personal ethics or the law. For example, if a parent instructs a child to do something harmful or illegal, the principle of obedience to parents could conflict with the child's understanding of right and wrong.
