Paradox #1
One contradiction regarding Genesis 13:10 is the mention of the "land of Egypt" being "well watered everywhere" like "the garden of the Lord." This description might conflict with what is known about the geography and climate of the region, as certain areas in Egypt, especially outside the Nile floodplain, are not well watered or lush. This could raise questions about the accuracy or context of the comparison in the verse.
