Contradiction with Jeremiah 29:11
While Jeremiah 50:13 speaks of desolation and God's wrath upon Babylon, Jeremiah 29:11 offers a message of hope and plans for prosperity, seemingly contradicting the theme of destruction.
Jeremiah 29:11: For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. [expected...: Heb. end and expectation]
Contradiction with Isaiah 40:1
Jeremiah 50:13 depicts God's anger and punishment, while Isaiah 40:1 speaks of comfort and tenderness, presenting a contrast in God's demeanor.
Isaiah 40:1: Comfort ye, comfort ye my people, saith your God.
Contradiction with Psalm 30:5
The wrath described in Jeremiah 50:13 suggests enduring punishment, whereas Psalm 30:5 emphasizes that God's anger is brief, contrasting the perception of divine wrath.
Psalm 30:5: For his anger [endureth but] a moment; in his favour [is] life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy [cometh] in the morning. [his anger...: Heb. there is but a moment in his anger] [for a night: Heb. in the evening] [joy: Heb. singing]
Paradox #1
The potential contradiction in Jeremiah 50:13 might be the depiction of divine retribution and punishment. Some people might find it inconsistent with the belief in a loving and merciful God. They could question how a compassionate deity can allow or cause suffering as a form of punishment, which might seem harsh or unforgiving.
