Contradiction with James 2:24
This verse emphasizes that a person is justified by works and not by faith only, which could contradict the implication in Exodus 39:42 that following divine instructions (as done by the Israelites exactly) is sufficient for God's approval, suggesting that compliance without faith may not suffice.
James 2:24: Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.
Contradiction with Romans 3:28
States that a person is justified by faith apart from the works of the Law, potentially contradicting Exodus 39:42 which highlights the execution of detailed works as part of divine compliance.
Romans 3:28: Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
Contradiction with Matthew 5:48
Commands to be perfect as God is perfect, suggesting a broader, more spiritual perfection beyond simply following detailed instructions noted in Exodus 39:42.
Matthew 5:48: Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
Contradiction with Isaiah 64:6
Declares righteousness as filthy rags, implying that even though the Israelites followed God's instructions perfectly in Exodus 39:42, their works alone may be insufficient for holiness without God's grace.
Isaiah 64:6: But we are all as an unclean [thing], and all our righteousnesses [are] as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
Contradiction with Hebrews 10:1
Points out that the Law is only a shadow and not the substance, potentially contradicting Exodus 39:42 by questioning the sufficiency of following the physical instructions alone for spiritual completeness.
Hebrews 10:1: For the law having a shadow of good things to come, [and] not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect.
