Luke 18:33: And they shall scourge [him], and put him to death: and the third day he shall rise again.

Contradiction with Romans 6:9

This verse states that Christ, being raised from the dead, dies no more, while Luke 18:33 mentions the resurrection without implying ongoing immortality or invincibility.

Romans 6:9: Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.

Contradiction with 1 Corinthians 15:26

Luke 18:33 foreshadows Christ's temporary defeat, whereas this verse claims death is the last enemy that will ultimately be destroyed.

1 Corinthians 15:26: The last enemy [that] shall be destroyed [is] death.

Contradiction with Acts 2:24

Contradicts as it emphasizes the impossibility of death holding Jesus permanently, while Luke 18:33 discusses the expectation of his suffering and death.

Acts 2:24: Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it.

Paradox #1

The contradiction with the concept in Luke 18:33 could relate to the idea of resurrection. From a scientific perspective, once a person is declared dead and biological functions cease, they cannot naturally come back to life. This conflicts with the biblical idea of someone rising from the dead after a certain period, as modern science does not support the possibility of reversing death in such a manner.
