Contradiction with Isaiah 45:9
This verse portrays humanity’s resistance and questioning of God’s actions, while Job 9:12 emphasizes God’s actions being unquestionable and unstoppable.
Isaiah 45:9: Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! [Let] the potsherd [strive] with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands?
Contradiction with Romans 9:20
This verse discusses how humans do question God, which contradicts Job 9:12 where it suggests no man can question God's actions.
Romans 9:20: Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed [it], Why hast thou made me thus? [repliest...: or, answerest again, or, disputest with God?]
Paradox #1
The contradiction or conflict could be that the verse suggests God acts with absolute power and humans cannot question His actions, which can be troubling for those who believe in fairness and justice. People might find it hard to accept that they have no say in understanding why certain things happen, especially when suffering or injustice is involved. This could conflict with the belief that moral actions should be explained and justified.
