Contradiction with Genesis 9:3
This verse states that every moving thing that lives shall be food, which contradicts the restriction in Judges 13:4 against eating any unclean thing.
Genesis 9:3: Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.
Contradiction with Mark 7:18-19
Jesus declared all foods clean, contradicting the restriction in Judges 13:4 against eating anything unclean.
Mark 7:18-19: Because it entereth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught, purging all meats?
Contradiction with Colossians 2:16
This verse suggests that dietary laws and restrictions on eating should not be judged, which conflicts with the specific dietary restriction in Judges 13:4.
Colossians 2:16: Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath [days]: [in meat...: or, for eating and drinking] [respect: or, part]
Contradiction with Romans 14:14
It states that nothing is unclean in itself, opposing the statement in Judges 13:4 to avoid unclean things.
Romans 14:14: I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that [there is] nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him [it is] unclean. [unclean: Gr. common]
Paradox #1
The potential contradiction in Judges 13:4 could be the dietary restriction related to not consuming alcohol, specifically wine or strong drink, for those dedicated as Nazirites. Modern science does not support inherent negative effects of moderate alcohol consumption for all people, though it acknowledges risks in certain populations such as pregnant individuals. Additionally, religious dietary rules are based on spiritual or cultural reasons rather than scientific evidence.
