Contradiction with Exodus 20:3
This verse commands that no other gods should be recognized, while Genesis 31:13 refers to God speaking as the God of Bethel, which could be seen as suggesting a specific localized deity.
Exodus 20:3: Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
Contradiction with Malachi 3:6
Malachi affirms God's unchanging nature, which could seem inconsistent with God instructing Jacob to leave one place for another as in Genesis 31:13.
Malachi 3:6: For I [am] the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.
Contradiction with Isaiah 45:5
This verse declares that there is no other god besides Yahweh, possibly contradicting the notion of God's association with a specific location in Genesis 31:13.
Isaiah 45:5: I [am] the LORD, and [there is] none else, [there is] no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:
Contradiction with James 1:17
James emphasizes God’s unchanging nature, potentially conflicting with the changeable, localized instructions given in Genesis 31:13.
James 1:17: Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
Contradiction with Acts 17:24
States that God does not dwell in temples made with hands, which might seem contrary to Genesis 31:13’s reference to an encounter with God at Bethel.
Acts 17:24: God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;
Paradox #1
The contradiction in Genesis 31:13 could arise from God instructing Jacob to leave a place where he had been prospering due to his faithfulness and hard work. This could be seen as conflicting with the idea of reaping the benefits of one's labor or the morality of fulfilling obligations and commitments. However, there is also the notion of divine command taking precedence over personal gain or agreements.
