Contradiction with Isaiah 40:22
This verse describes the circle of the earth and the heavens stretched out as a tent, which contrasts with the description of orderly movement in Ezekiel 1:17.
Isaiah 40:22: [It is] he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof [are] as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in: [It is...: or, Him that]
Contradiction with 1 Kings 7:23
This verse discusses a circular shape for the molten sea, which contradicts the description of the wheels in Ezekiel 1:17, suggesting precise, square-like movement.
1 Kings 7:23: And he made a molten sea, ten cubits from the one brim to the other: [it was] round all about, and his height [was] five cubits: and a line of thirty cubits did compass it round about. [from...: Heb. from his brim to his brim]
Contradiction with James 1:6
This verse speaks of being driven and tossed like a wave, contrasting with the steady and direct movement of the wheels in Ezekiel 1:17.
James 1:6: But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
Contradiction with Ecclesiastes 1:6
This verse describes the wind's circuitous path, which opposes the straightforward movement of the wheels described in Ezekiel 1:17.
Ecclesiastes 1:6: The wind goeth toward the south, and turneth about unto the north; it whirleth about continually, and the wind returneth again according to his circuits.
Paradox #1
The Bible verse describes wheels that move in any direction without turning, which defies the laws of physics and traditional mechanics. Wheels as we know them need to turn to change direction. So, the description could conflict with scientific understanding of how wheels work.
