Contradiction with Jeremiah 49:16
Explains the downfall and humility of Edom's pride, contrasting with the hint of Edom's insignificance in 49:15.
Jeremiah 49:16: Thy terribleness hath deceived thee, [and] the pride of thine heart, O thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, that holdest the height of the hill: though thou shouldest make thy nest as high as the eagle, I will bring thee down from thence, saith the LORD.
Contradiction with Proverbs 16:18
States that pride leads to destruction, while Jeremiah 49:15 states Edom is despised without specifically mentioning pride directly leading to its downfall.
Proverbs 16:18: Pride [goeth] before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.
Contradiction with Isaiah 40:17
All nations are as nothing before God, contrasting Edom's particular fate in Jeremiah 49:15.
Isaiah 40:17: All nations before him [are] as nothing; and they are counted to him less than nothing, and vanity.
Contradiction with Obadiah 1:2
Edom is made small among the heathen, which parallels rather than directly contradicts Jeremiah 49:15.
Obadiah 1:2: Behold, I have made thee small among the heathen: thou art greatly despised.
