Contradiction with Psalm 103:12
Explains that transgressions are removed as far as the east is from the west, suggesting forgiveness rather than punishment.
Psalm 103:12: As far as the east is from the west, [so] far hath he removed our transgressions from us.
Contradiction with Isaiah 43:25
Emphasizes God blotting out transgressions and not remembering sins, indicating forgiveness over retaining sin.
Isaiah 43:25: I, [even] I, [am] he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins.
Contradiction with Hebrews 8:12
States that God will be merciful and will remember sins no more, contradicting the idea of recalling iniquities.
Hebrews 8:12: For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.
Contradiction with Micah 7:18-19
Highlights God's delight in mercy and casting sins into the sea, contrary to recalling and punishing sins.
Micah 7:18-19: Who [is] a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, because he delighteth [in] mercy.
Contradiction with Jeremiah 31:34
Assures that God will forgive iniquity and remember sins no more, opposing the notion of recording sins.
Jeremiah 31:34: And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
Paradox #1
Job 13:26 could be seen as conflicting with the idea of a just and forgiving God because it suggests that God punishes Job for sins committed in the past, even though Job feels he is innocent. This can seem inconsistent with verses that emphasize God's mercy, forgiveness, and fairness.
Paradox #2
The potential contradiction in this verse is the idea of punishing someone for their past mistakes, even if they have already suffered or changed. It raises questions about forgiveness and whether it's fair to keep reminding or punishing someone for what they did long ago.
