According to Moses, who is believed to have written Leviticus, if a priest buys someone with his money, that person can eat the special food given to priests. Even the people born in the priest’s house can have this food too.

Leviticus 22:11: But if the priest buy [any] soul with his money, he shall eat of it, and he that is born in his house: they shall eat of his meat. [with...: Heb. with the purchase of his money]

Paradox #1

Leviticus 22:11 discusses who can eat certain holy offerings. A potential contradiction might arise when considering other biblical passages that emphasize strict boundaries between sacred items and non-priests. If allowances are made in this verse, it might seem inconsistent with the stricter separation of the sacred seen elsewhere.

Paradox #2

Leviticus 22:11 suggests that a priest's purchased servant can eat of the holy offerings, but it might conflict with other teachings about fairness and equality. Some might see it as promoting inequality, as it treats people differently based on their status or relationship to the priest. This could raise questions about moral consistency, as other parts of the Bible emphasize love and fairness for all.
