Contradiction with Exodus 20:15
This verse commands, "Thou shalt not steal," which contradicts the action in Luke 19:34 where taking the colt might be seen as taking property without direct permission.
Exodus 20:15: Thou shalt not steal.
Contradiction with Exodus 23:4
This verse advises, "If thou meet thine enemy's ox or his ass going astray, thou shalt surely bring it back to him again," implying a return of property, whereas in Luke 19:34, the colt is taken with no explicit return.
Exodus 23:4: If thou meet thine enemy's ox or his ass going astray, thou shalt surely bring it back to him again.
Contradiction with Matthew 5:40
This verse, "And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also," suggests to offer more if something is taken, which contrasts with taking the colt with just a statement of need.
Matthew 5:40: And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have [thy] cloke also.
Contradiction with Romans 13:1-2
These verses speak to being subject to governing authorities, which might imply obtaining official permission rather than just taking as in Luke 19:34.
Romans 13:1-2: Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. [ordained: or, ordered]
Contradiction with Exodus 22:1
This verse states that if someone steals an ox or a sheep and slaughters or sells it, they must pay restitution, indicating taking without restitution or permission is wrong, contrasting with the colt's immediate taking.
Exodus 22:1: If a man shall steal an ox, or a sheep, and kill it, or sell it; he shall restore five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep. [or a sheep: or, or a goat]
