Contradiction with Proverbs 2:10-11
These verses emphasize the protection and guidance offered by wisdom and discretion, contradicting Job 24:15's portrayal of the secretive, unlawful acts committed under the cover of darkness.
Proverbs 2:10-11: When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowledge is pleasant unto thy soul;
Contradiction with Proverbs 4:18-19
These verses contrast the path of the just, which is like a shining light, with the way of the wicked, highlighting the darkness in which wrongdoers operate, as mentioned in Job 24:15.
Proverbs 4:18-19: But the path of the just [is] as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.
Contradiction with John 3:19-20
These verses speak of light coming into the world, and people loving darkness because their deeds are evil, aligning with Job 24:15's depiction of wrongdoing in the dark but contradicting by highlighting the need to come into the light.
John 3:19-20: And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
Contradiction with Ephesians 5:11-13
These verses encourage exposing the deeds of darkness rather than participating in them, directly opposing the secretive misconduct described in Job 24:15.
Ephesians 5:11-13: And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove [them].
Paradox #1
The moral conflict in Job 24:15 could be about the contrast between outward actions and inner intentions. It might highlight how people can appear to be good or lawful in the eyes of society while secretly doing wrong, which can raise questions about true morality and accountability.
