Contradiction with Matthew 18:21-22
These verses emphasize forgiveness, whereas Jeremiah 49:39 prophesies restoration after judgment, reflecting conditional divine action.
Matthew 18:21-22: Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?
Contradiction with Ezekiel 18:23
This verse speaks of God not taking pleasure in the death of the wicked, which contrasts with the theme of judgment and eventual restoration in Jeremiah 49:39.
Ezekiel 18:23: Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord GOD: [and] not that he should return from his ways, and live?
Contradiction with Genesis 18:25
Depicts God as just and questions His fairness in destroying the righteous with the wicked, contradicting the notion of collective judgment found before the promise of restoration in Jeremiah 49:39.
Genesis 18:25: That be far from thee to do after this manner, to slay the righteous with the wicked: and that the righteous should be as the wicked, that be far from thee: Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?
Contradiction with Isaiah 55:7
Encourages returning to God for mercy and abundant pardon, contrasting the temporary judgment on Elam mentioned in Jeremiah 49:39.
Isaiah 55:7: Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. [the unrighteous...: Heb. the man of iniquity] [abundantly...: Heb. multiply to pardon]
