Contradiction with Exodus 12:24
Exodus 12:42 states that the Lord kept vigil to bring the Israelites out of Egypt, while Exodus 12:24 emphasizes the observance of the Passover for future generations, which may contrast with the focus on a single night of vigil.
Exodus 12:24: And ye shall observe this thing for an ordinance to thee and to thy sons for ever.
Contradiction with Numbers 9:12
This verse states that the Passover lamb should not have any bones broken, which contrasts with Exodus 12:42 focusing solely on the vigil aspect.
Numbers 9:12: They shall leave none of it unto the morning, nor break any bone of it: according to all the ordinances of the passover they shall keep it.
Contradiction with Deuteronomy 16:6
This verse requires the Passover sacrifice to be made only at a specific location God chooses, contradicting Exodus 12:42, which does not specify a particular locus of observance.
Deuteronomy 16:6: But at the place which the LORD thy God shall choose to place his name in, there thou shalt sacrifice the passover at even, at the going down of the sun, at the season that thou camest forth out of Egypt.
Contradiction with Leviticus 23:5
Leviticus 23:5 declares the Passover as a fixed festival day, which can be seen as a regular observance, conflicting with Exodus 12:42's emphasis on a singular, monumental night of vigil.
Leviticus 23:5: In the fourteenth [day] of the first month at even [is] the LORD'S passover.
Contradiction with John 19:36
In stating that no bone shall be broken (referring to Jesus as the Passover lamb), this verse adds a Christological interpretation that differs from Exodus 12:42's focus on historical deliverance.
John 19:36: For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.
Contradiction with Acts 12:3-4
This passage highlights Herod's actions during the days of unleavened bread, with no mention of vigil, contrasting with the solemn observance urged in Exodus 12:42.
Acts 12:3-4: And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.)
Contradiction with Ezekiel 45:21
Ezekiel prescribes a week-long Passover celebration, which extends the commemoration beyond the single night of vigil described in Exodus 12:42.
Ezekiel 45:21: In the first [month], in the fourteenth day of the month, ye shall have the passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread shall be eaten.
Contradiction with Exodus 13:4
Talks about the month of Abib when the Exodus happened, focusing on the timing rather than the vigil night mentioned in Exodus 12:42.
Exodus 13:4: This day came ye out in the month Abib.
Contradiction with 1 Corinthians 5:7-8
These verses espouse an allegorical understanding of Passover as a call to purity, seemingly at odds with the literal nighttime vigil described in Exodus 12:42.
1 Corinthians 5:7-8: Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: [is sacrificed; or, is slain]
