Contradiction with Proverbs 3:5
This verse promotes relying on the Lord's understanding, whereas Jeremiah 9:13 blames the people for not listening to God's law, suggesting they should rely on it.
Proverbs 3:5: Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
Contradiction with Jeremiah 8:8
This verse questions the wisdom in the law when it is mishandled by scribes, contrasting with Jeremiah 9:13 which emphasizes the importance of adhering to God's law.
Jeremiah 8:8: How do ye say, We [are] wise, and the law of the LORD [is] with us? Lo, certainly in vain made he [it]; the pen of the scribes [is] in vain. [in vain made...: or, the false pen of the scribes worketh for falsehood]
Contradiction with 1 Samuel 15:22
This verse states that obedience is better than sacrifice, questioning the value of mere adherence to law without true obedience, whereas Jeremiah 9:13 focuses on neglect as the issue.
1 Samuel 15:22: And Samuel said, Hath the LORD [as great] delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey [is] better than sacrifice, [and] to hearken than the fat of rams.
Contradiction with Matthew 15:9
It claims that some teachings are human commands rather than divine law, potentially contradicting the assertion in Jeremiah 9:13 that abandoning God's law alone is the problem.
Matthew 15:9: But in vain they do worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men.
Contradiction with Romans 2:29
It explains that true faith is inward and spiritual rather than a strict following of external law, which challenges the emphasis in Jeremiah 9:13 on following God's law.
Romans 2:29: But he [is] a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision [is that] of the heart, in the spirit, [and] not in the letter; whose praise [is] not of men, but of God.
