Contradiction with Proverbs 3:12
This verse states that God disciplines those He loves, suggesting that discipline is effective, which contradicts Jeremiah 2:30's implication of ineffective correction.
Proverbs 3:12: For whom the LORD loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son [in whom] he delighteth.
Contradiction with Hebrews 12:11
This verse claims that discipline yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those trained by it, contrary to the ineffectiveness indicated in Jeremiah 2:30.
Hebrews 12:11: Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.
Contradiction with Revelation 3:19
This verse indicates that rebuke and discipline are expressions of love, implying they lead to positive outcomes, conflicting with the fruitlessness in Jeremiah 2:30.
Revelation 3:19: As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
Contradiction with Psalm 94:12
This verse suggests that those whom God disciplines are blessed, opposing the notion of futility in correction seen in Jeremiah 2:30.
Psalm 94:12: Blessed [is] the man whom thou chastenest, O LORD, and teachest him out of thy law;
Contradiction with Exodus 20:6
This verse speaks of God showing mercy to those who love Him and keep His commandments, which contradicts the lack of repentance or change highlighted in Jeremiah 2:30.
Exodus 20:6: And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
Paradox #1
The verse might be seen as highlighting a contradiction if it describes punishment despite efforts to correct behavior. Some might see this as conflicting with the idea of merciful patience. This could seem inconsistent if one expects continuous forgiveness and understanding.
