Contradictions and Paradoxes in Ezekiel 37:3

Check out Contradictions Catalog of Ezekiel 37:3 for the comprehensive list of verses that contradicts Ezekiel 37:3. Some key contradictions and paradoxes are described below.

According to Ezekiel, God asked him if old, dry bones could come back to life, and Ezekiel said only God knows the answer. This shows that God can do things that seem impossible to us.

Ezekiel 37:3: And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord GOD, thou knowest.

Contradiction with Matthew 19:26

Ezekiel 37:3 questions if the bones can live and indicates that only God knows this, while Matthew 19:26 affirms all things are possible with God, suggesting certainty rather than doubt.

Matthew 19:26: But Jesus beheld [them], and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.

Contradiction with Luke 18:27

In Ezekiel 37:3, there's an uncertainty about the possibility, but Luke 18:27 states things impossible with men are possible with God, implying assurance.

Luke 18:27: And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.

Contradiction with Romans 4:17

Ezekiel 37:3 focuses on God's knowledge of the possibility, whereas Romans 4:17 speaks of God giving life to the dead, which suggests action rather than seeking affirmation.

Romans 4:17: (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, [even] God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were. [before him: or, like unto him]

Contradiction with Job 42:2

Ezekiel 37:3 questions the possibility with emphasis on divine knowledge, while Job 42:2 asserts that God can do everything and nothing is restrained from Him, implying no doubt.

Job 42:2: I know that thou canst do every [thing], and [that] no thought can be withholden from thee. [no thought can be...: or, no thought of thine can be hindered]

Contradiction with Mark 10:27

Similarly, while Ezekiel 37:3 hinges on inquiry, Mark 10:27 emphasizes the boundlessness of divine capability, contradicting the need for questioning.

Mark 10:27: And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men [it is] impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.

Paradox #1

The contradiction in Ezekiel 37:3 would be the idea of dry bones coming back to life, which conflicts with biological understanding. In science, life cannot be restored once an organism is dead and its bodily structures, like bones, have decayed.
