Contradiction with Exodus 16:18
This verse emphasizes reliance on daily provision from God, contrasting with Leviticus 25:21 which promises an abundance to last multiple years.
Exodus 16:18: And when they did mete [it] with an omer, he that gathered much had nothing over, and he that gathered little had no lack; they gathered every man according to his eating.
Contradiction with Matthew 6:34
Advises not to worry about tomorrow, as each day provides its own needs, contrasting with the assurance of future provision in Leviticus 25:21.
Matthew 6:34: Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day [is] the evil thereof.
Contradiction with Proverbs 30:8-9
Advocates for having just enough to avoid extremes, opposing the promise of an abundance in Leviticus 25:21.

Contradiction with James 4:13-14
Warns against presuming upon the future, conflicting with the assured future abundance promised in Leviticus 25:21.
James 4:13-14: Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain:
Contradiction with Luke 12:19-20
Critiques storing up surplus for future security, which contradicts the preparatory surplus promised in Leviticus 25:21.
Luke 12:19-20: And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, [and] be merry.
Paradox #1
Leviticus 25:21 talks about a promise of abundant crop production in a specific year. The contradiction here could be that agriculture relies on various factors like weather, soil fertility, and pest control, rather than divine intervention alone. It is scientifically inconsistent to expect natural crop abundance based solely on religious instruction without considering these agricultural factors.
