Contradiction with Deuteronomy 10:17
This verse says God does not show partiality, whereas Job 13:8 suggests that one might show partiality for God.
Deuteronomy 10:17: For the LORD your God [is] God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward:
Contradiction with Acts 10:34
This verse indicates that God shows no favoritism, which contrasts with the concept presented in Job 13:8 of having respect for God's person.
Acts 10:34: Then Peter opened [his] mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:
Contradiction with Romans 2:11
States clearly that there is no respect of persons with God, differing from Job's implication of partiality in Job 13:8.
Romans 2:11: For there is no respect of persons with God.
Paradox #1
The contradiction in Job 13:8 could be seen as the struggle to treat everyone fairly without showing favoritism. This verse suggests a critique of defending God unjustly or showing partiality, which can conflict with the idea that God is always just and fair. It's about the tension between defending a belief and ensuring that defense is also just and impartial.
