Contradiction with Judges 21:25
While Judges 4:23 shows God's involvement and deliverance, Judges 21:25 depicts a time when there was no king and everyone did what was right in their own eyes, suggesting a lack of direct divine intervention or leadership.
Judges 21:25: In those days [there was] no king in Israel: every man did [that which was] right in his own eyes.
Contradiction with 1 Samuel 8:7
Judges 4:23 reflects God's deliverance through chosen leaders, whereas 1 Samuel 8:7 reveals God allowing the people to reject Him as king in favor of a human monarchy, signaling a shift away from divine rule.
1 Samuel 8:7: And the LORD said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.
Contradiction with Isaiah 2:4
Judges 4:23 depicts God's intervention in battle, but Isaiah 2:4 envisions a future where God judges among nations and there is no need for war.
Isaiah 2:4: And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. [pruninghooks: or, scythes]
Contradiction with Matthew 5:9
Judges 4:23 involves God defeating Israel’s enemies, while Matthew 5:9 promotes peacemaking rather than conflict.
Matthew 5:9: Blessed [are] the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
Contradiction with Romans 12:19
Judges 4:23 illustrates God's direct vengeance on Israel’s behalf, whereas Romans 12:19 encourages believers to leave vengeance to God and pursue peace.
Romans 12:19: Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but [rather] give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance [is] mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
