Contradiction with Jeremiah 49:16
This verse describes the pride and height of eagles, suggesting self-determined behavior, which could be seen as contradicting the idea of eagles being directed by divine will.
Jeremiah 49:16: Thy terribleness hath deceived thee, [and] the pride of thine heart, O thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, that holdest the height of the hill: though thou shouldest make thy nest as high as the eagle, I will bring thee down from thence, saith the LORD.
Contradiction with Obadiah 1:4
This verse suggests that even though eagles soar high and nest among the stars, they can be brought down, implying that their actions are not determined solely by divine guidance.
Obadiah 1:4: Though thou exalt [thyself] as the eagle, and though thou set thy nest among the stars, thence will I bring thee down, saith the LORD.
Contradiction with Isaiah 40:31
This verse implies that those who wait on the Lord will renew their strength and mount up with wings as eagles, suggesting human agency rather than divine command as seen in Job 39:27.
Isaiah 40:31: But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew [their] strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; [and] they shall walk, and not faint. [renew: Heb. change]
Contradiction with Proverbs 30:19
This verse highlights the mysterious ways of an eagle in the sky, which could be interpreted as an independent natural order, not necessarily directed by divine intervention.
Proverbs 30:19: The way of an eagle in the air; the way of a serpent upon a rock; the way of a ship in the midst of the sea; and the way of a man with a maid. [midst: Heb. heart]
