Contradiction with Exodus 20:4
While Exodus 27:14 details specific measurements for the tabernacle court, Exodus 20:4 warns against making graven images, which could imply an aversion to overly specific designs or representations.
Exodus 20:4: Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness [of any thing] that [is] in heaven above, or that [is] in the earth beneath, or that [is] in the water under the earth:
Contradiction with 1 Samuel 15:22
Where Exodus 27:14 emphasizes following precise instructions, 1 Samuel 15:22 suggests that obedience to God's voice is more important than ritualistic compliance or sacrifices.
1 Samuel 15:22: And Samuel said, Hath the LORD [as great] delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey [is] better than sacrifice, [and] to hearken than the fat of rams.
Contradiction with Matthew 6:5-6
Exodus 27:14, involving public elements of worship structure, may contrast with Matthew's call for private, humble prayer rather than elaborate structures.
Matthew 6:5-6: And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites [are]: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
Contradiction with John 4:24
The precise and physical nature of the tabernacle's construction contrasts with John 4:24's emphasis on worship in spirit and truth, suggesting a more spiritual rather than material focus.
John 4:24: God [is] a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship [him] in spirit and in truth.
