Contradiction with 1 Corinthians 14:33
Ezekiel 1:9 describes a vision that seems chaotic and complex, whereas 1 Corinthians 14:33 states that God is not the author of confusion, suggesting an orderly nature.
1 Corinthians 14:33: For God is not [the author] of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints. [confusion: Gr. tumult, or, unquietness]
Contradiction with 1 John 4:12
Ezekiel 1:9 implies a vision of divine presence through strange imagery, but 1 John 4:12 notes that no one has seen God at any time.
1 John 4:12: No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.
Contradiction with Exodus 33:20
Ezekiel 1:9 involves a direct vision of divine figures, contradicting Exodus 33:20 where God says no one can see Him and live.
Exodus 33:20: And he said, Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.
Contradiction with John 1:18
The imagery suggests a direct encounter with the divine, opposed by John 1:18 claiming no one has seen God.
John 1:18: No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared [him].
Paradox #1
The potential contradiction in Ezekiel 1:9 could relate to the description of living creatures with conjoined wings and making seemingly supernatural movements. Scientifically, creatures with such complex, joint actions and appearance do not exist in our natural world as described, and it conflicts with biological principles of known living organisms.
