Jeremiah 1:5: Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, [and] I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. [ordained: Heb. gave]
Contradiction with Ezekiel 14:9
This verse suggests that God can deceive prophets, which may contradict the idea in Luke 11:49 that God intentionally sends prophets and apostles as emissaries.
Ezekiel 14:9: And if the prophet be deceived when he hath spoken a thing, I the LORD have deceived that prophet, and I will stretch out my hand upon him, and will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel.

Amos 3:7: Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.
Contradiction with Matthew 23:34
Although similar in context, this verse explicitly states, "Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes," which can be seen as a human-related contradiction of the divine declaration in Luke 11:49.
Matthew 23:34: Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and [some] of them ye shall kill and crucify; and [some] of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute [them] from city to city:

Hebrews 1:1-2: God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
Contradiction with Acts 7:52
This verse emphasizes past betrayal and murder of prophets, contrasting with Luke 11:49's ongoing sending without focusing on the rejection aspect.

Contradiction with John 1:11
This verse describes Jesus coming to His own people who did not receive Him, highlighting a direct rejection differing from the concept of sending representatives in Luke 11:49.
John 1:11: He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
Contradiction with 1 Samuel 15:29
This verse states that God does not change His mind, conflicting with the responsive sending action implied in Luke 11:49 regarding prophets and apostles.
1 Samuel 15:29: And also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor repent: for he [is] not a man, that he should repent. [Strength: or, Eternity, or, Victory]
Paradox #1
Luke 11:49 might present a theological inconsistency concerning the source or speaker of the quote mentioned in the verse. In some interpretations, it appears to attribute the words to God's wisdom, but there's no direct reference to this specific statement elsewhere in scripture. This could lead to questions about its origin or consistency with other biblical passages.
