Contradiction with Numbers 18:3
This verse mentions the duties of priests from the tribe of Levi, aligning with traditional Levitical priesthood, which Hebrews 7:13 seems to move away from by indicating a shift to a different tribe.
Numbers 18:3: And they shall keep thy charge, and the charge of all the tabernacle: only they shall not come nigh the vessels of the sanctuary and the altar, that neither they, nor ye also, die.
Contradiction with Hebrews 5:4
States that no one takes the honor of priesthood upon themselves but is called by God, as Aaron was, which aligns with Levitical tradition and differs from the change mentioned in Hebrews 7:13.
Hebrews 5:4: And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as [was] Aaron.
Contradiction with Exodus 29:9

Contradiction with Numbers 18:7

Numbers 18:7: Therefore thou and thy sons with thee shall keep your priest's office for every thing of the altar, and within the vail; and ye shall serve: I have given your priest's office [unto you] as a service of gift: and the stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death.
Contradiction with Deuteronomy 10:8
Confirms the choosing of the tribe of Levi for priestly duties, differing from the tribal association mentioned in Hebrews 7:13.
