According to Isaiah, God is like a very fair judge who makes good rules and is the great king who helps and protects us. He is in charge, and we can trust Him to save and take care of us.

Isaiah 33:22: For the LORD [is] our judge, the LORD [is] our lawgiver, the LORD [is] our king; he will save us. [lawgiver: Heb. statutemaker]

Contradiction with James 4:12

This verse emphasizes that there is only one lawgiver and judge, which aligns with Isaiah 33:22, but James points to the Lord's singular authority, implying that humankind does not share in judgment, offering a different context in authority sharing.

James 4:12: There is one lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another?

Contradiction with Matthew 7:1

This verse encourages people not to judge others, which contrasts with the judicial aspect attributed to the Lord in Isaiah 33:22, suggesting a human practice not supported in Isaiah.

Matthew 7:1: Judge not, that ye be not judged.

Contradiction with Romans 2:1

This verse highlights that humans also judge, potentially contradicting the exclusive divine judicial authority described in Isaiah 33:22.

Romans 2:1: Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things.

Contradiction with John 5:22

This verse states that all judgment is given by the Father to the Son, implying a different judicial role than offered in Isaiah 33:22, where the Lord encompasses all roles.

John 5:22: For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:

Contradiction with Hebrews 10:30

This verse affirms that vengeance belongs to the Lord, which could contrast the idea of a legislative and judicial role as humans are involved in law's execution, not just divine retribution.

Hebrews 10:30: For we know him that hath said, Vengeance [belongeth] unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.
