Contradiction with Proverbs 4:7
While Job 17:10 encourages renewed reasoning and wisdom, Proverbs 4:7 emphasizes the importance of seeking wisdom above all else, suggesting inconsistency in the approach to wisdom.
Proverbs 4:7: Wisdom [is] the principal thing; [therefore] get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.
Contradiction with Ecclesiastes 1:18
Job 17:10 suggests gaining wisdom is beneficial, whereas Ecclesiastes 1:18 observes that increased wisdom can lead to increased sorrow, offering a conflicting view of the value of wisdom.
Ecclesiastes 1:18: For in much wisdom [is] much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow.
Contradiction with James 1:5
James encourages asking God for wisdom, promising generosity, which contradicts Job's despairing tone where no direct divine intervention or wisdom acquisition is expected.
James 1:5: If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all [men] liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
