Contradiction with Acts 10:13-15
In Acts, Peter is told in a vision to eat all kinds of animals, signifying that God has made all animals clean, contradicting Leviticus 11:20 which lists unclean insects.
Acts 10:13-15: And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat.
Contradiction with Mark 7:18-19
Jesus declares all foods clean, in contrast with Leviticus 11:20 which categorizes certain insects as 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 Romans 14:14
Paul states that no food is unclean in itself, opposing the dietary restrictions in Leviticus 11:20.
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]
Contradiction with 1 Timothy 4:4-5
It states that every creature of God is good and should not be refused if received with thanksgiving, contradicting the dietary laws in Leviticus 11:20.
1 Timothy 4:4-5: For every creature of God [is] good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:
Paradox #1
Leviticus 11:20 is often pointed out as a contradiction because it describes certain creatures as "winged insects that walk on all fours," which do not exist in reality since insects have six legs. This could be seen as a conflict or inconsistency with the scientific understanding of insects.
Paradox #2
Leviticus 11:20 mentions flying insects that walk on all fours, which seems biologically inaccurate because insects have six legs, not four. This apparent inconsistency could be due to translation differences or ancient understandings of insect anatomy.
Paradox #3
Leviticus 11:20 talks about flying insects that have four legs, which is a mistake because insects have six legs. This is a contradiction between the description in the verse and basic biological facts.
Paradox #4
The scientific inconsistency in this verse is that it describes insects with four legs, which contradicts biological knowledge, as insects have six legs.
Paradox #5
This verse might create a contradiction or confusion because it refers to flying insects that walk on all fours, which doesn't align with our understanding of insect anatomy, as insects have six legs. This could lead to questions about the accuracy or interpretation of the text.
Paradox #6
The contradiction involves referring to certain creatures as having four legs when, in reality, insects like those mentioned typically have six legs.
