Contradiction with James 2:8
While Leviticus 13:51 discusses identifying defilement in garments, James 2:8 emphasizes fulfilling the royal law of love, which may transcend ceremonial laws.
James 2:8: If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well:
Contradiction with Mark 7:15
Leviticus 13:51 talks about external defilement in cloth, whereas Mark 7:15 emphasizes that what defiles a person comes from within.
Mark 7:15: If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.
Contradiction with Romans 14:14
This verse suggests nothing is unclean in itself, contradicting the concept of unclean fabrics in Leviticus 13:51.
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 Matthew 15:11
Whereas Leviticus focuses on material defilement, Matthew 15:11 suggests what comes out of the mouth defiles, not what enters.
Matthew 15:11: Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.
Contradiction with Galatians 3:28
Leviticus 13:51 deals with separation due to uncleanness, but Galatians 3:28 promotes unity and the breaking down of divisions.
Galatians 3:28: There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
Paradox #1
The verse talks about identifying certain skin conditions or mold in fabric, but it may reflect ancient understandings that don't align with modern scientific knowledge about diseases, fungi, or the spread of mold. It suggests a specific procedure for determining cleanliness or uncleanliness that isn't based on the scientific methods we use today for diagnosing or treating such issues.
