Contradiction with Mark 7:6-9
These verses discuss the invalidation of God's commandments through human traditions, possibly contradicting the strict celebration prescribed in Leviticus 23:41.
Mark 7:6-9: He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with [their] lips, but their heart is far from me.
Contradiction with Romans 14:5-6
These verses suggest that one person may regard one day above another, while someone else may regard every day alike, emphasizing personal conviction rather than strict observance of holy days.
Romans 14:5-6: One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day [alike]. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind. [fully persuaded: or, fully assured]
Contradiction with Colossians 2:16-17
These verses advise against judging one another concerning holy days, which could contrast with the commandment in Leviticus 23:41 to observe a specific feast.
Colossians 2:16-17: 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]
Paradox #1
The contradiction or conflict in Leviticus 23:41 could be seen in its emphasis on strict adherence to religious festivals and rituals, which might seem inconsistent with other biblical teachings that prioritize justice, mercy, or helping others over ceremonial practices. Some might argue that focusing on ritual observance could conflict with the core ethical teachings of love and compassion found elsewhere in the Bible.
