Contradiction with Acts 7:22
Describes Moses as learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, implying full acceptance of his Egyptian royal upbringing.
Acts 7:22: And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty in words and in deeds.
Contradiction with Exodus 2:10
States that Moses became the son of Pharaoh's daughter, implying that he did not refuse the title or position.
Exodus 2:10: And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses: and she said, Because I drew him out of the water. [Moses: that is, Drawn out]
Contradiction with Exodus 5:1

Exodus 5:1: And afterward Moses and Aaron went in, and told Pharaoh, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Let my people go, that they may hold a feast unto me in the wilderness.
Contradiction with Exodus 2:15
Mentions Moses fleeing Egypt because he killed an Egyptian, suggesting his departure was due to fear rather than faith or rejection of his royal status.

Paradox #1
Hebrews 11:24 refers to Moses rejecting his Egyptian upbringing to better align with his faith in God. A potential contradiction could be the idea of rejecting a privileged or beneficial lifestyle for the sake of faith, which might seem difficult or illogical to some people who value material security. This can create tension between material comfort and spiritual beliefs.
