Contradiction with Exodus 21:16
This verse states that kidnapping a person to sell them is punishable by death, which contradicts the regulation of master-servant relationships in Leviticus 25:53.
Exodus 21:16: And he that stealeth a man, and selleth him, or if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.
Contradiction with Deuteronomy 24:7
This verse declares that anyone who kidnaps and sells a fellow Israelite, or is found with them, should be put to death, opposing the servitude guidelines in Leviticus 25:53.
Deuteronomy 24:7: If a man be found stealing any of his brethren of the children of Israel, and maketh merchandise of him, or selleth him; then that thief shall die; and thou shalt put evil away from among you.
Contradiction with Galatians 3:28
This verse emphasizes that in Christ there is neither bond nor free, which contradicts the notion of regulated servitude in Leviticus 25:53.
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
Leviticus 25:53 might present a moral inconsistency if it appears to endorse different standards of treatment for individuals based on their social status or origin. If this seems to conflict with the broader biblical principle that all people should be treated with love and respect, it could be seen as contradictory. Some people might find it difficult to reconcile the idea of fair treatment within a system that allows for servitude.
