Contradiction with Genesis 1:1
Both verses describe the creation, but Genesis 1:1 attributes the creation of the earth entirely to God without the involvement of any idols, while Jeremiah emphasizes God's sole power, contrasting with the idolatry present in the chapter context.
Genesis 1:1: In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
Contradiction with Exodus 20:11
Jeremiah 10:12 speaks of the earth made by God's power, wisdom, and understanding whereas Exodus suggests a six-day creation process, focusing on God's rest on the seventh day.
Exodus 20:11: For [in] six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them [is], and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
Contradiction with Isaiah 44:24
It emphasizes God as the lone creator, similar to Jeremiah 10:12, but focuses more on the rejection of idols, which in the broader context of Jeremiah directly contrasts idolatrous practices.
Isaiah 44:24: Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I [am] the LORD that maketh all [things]; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;
Contradiction with Jeremiah 10:11
This preceding verse directly condemns the idols, setting up Jeremiah 10:12 by contrasting God's creative power with impotent idols, making it appear contradictory when read alone.
Jeremiah 10:11: Thus shall ye say unto them, The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, [even] they shall perish from the earth, and from under these heavens.
