Contradiction with Leviticus 25:10
Leviticus 25:28 discusses the permanent loss of property if not redeemed, while verse 10 speaks about the Jubilee Year when all property is to be returned.
Leviticus 25:10: And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout [all] the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubile unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family.
Contradiction with Exodus 23:10-11
Leviticus 25:28 implies permanent sales under certain conditions, while Exodus 23:10-11 mandates land to rest and emphasizes cyclical use and ownership.
Exodus 23:10-11: And six years thou shalt sow thy land, and shalt gather in the fruits thereof:
Contradiction with Acts 4:32
Whereas Leviticus 25:28 discusses individual property rights and possible loss, Acts 4:32 promotes communal ownership, contradicting the idea of permanent personal ownership loss.
Acts 4:32: And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any [of them] that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.
Contradiction with Deuteronomy 15:1-2
Leviticus 25:28 involves potential perpetual loss of property, while Deuteronomy 15:1-2 mandates debt forgiveness and release, promoting restoration every seven years.
Deuteronomy 15:1-2: At the end of [every] seven years thou shalt make a release.
Paradox #1
Leviticus 25:28 refers to property laws and the Year of Jubilee in ancient Israel. A contradiction might arise when comparing these laws to archaeological evidence or historical records from other ancient Near Eastern cultures, which might have had different rules for property ownership and debt forgiveness. Such differences could lead to discussions about the uniqueness or practicality of the Jubilee laws in comparison to practices outside of the biblical text.
Paradox #2
Leviticus 25:28 could present a moral inconsistency in relation to the ideas of fairness and equality. The verse deals with property rights and talks about the return of land during the Year of Jubilee. This might seem unfair to those who originally owned the land and made improvements to it, only to have to return it without compensation. It creates a conflict between the idea of forgiveness and amnesty and the practical rights of ownership and reward for hard work.
