Contradiction with Matthew 5:44
While Jeremiah 44:20 addresses idolatry and punishment, Matthew 5:44 encourages love and prayer for enemies, emphasizing forgiveness over retribution.
Matthew 5:44: But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
Contradiction with Romans 12:14
Jeremiah 44:20 speaks of rebuke for wrong actions, whereas Romans 12:14 advises blessing those who persecute rather than cursing or condemning them.
Romans 12:14: Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.
Contradiction with 1 Peter 3:9
Jeremiah focuses on judgment and consequences; 1 Peter 3:9 promotes returning blessings instead of seeking vengeance or judgment.
1 Peter 3:9: Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing.
