Contradiction with Genesis 17:10
This verse outlines the covenant of circumcision, showing a tangible sign, whereas Luke 1:73 refers to an oath made to Abraham without specifying a physical sign.
Genesis 17:10: This [is] my covenant, which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee; Every man child among you shall be circumcised.
Contradiction with Galatians 3:16
This verse explains the promises were made to Abraham and his 'seed', singular, referring to Christ, suggesting a more specific fulfillment than the broader community implied in Luke 1:73.
Galatians 3:16: Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.
Contradiction with Hebrews 8:6
Discusses how Jesus mediates a better covenant, implying that the old covenant (including the oath to Abraham) is surpassed, potentially contradicting the everlasting aspect of the oath in Luke 1:73.
Hebrews 8:6: But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises. [covenant: or, testament]
Contradiction with Romans 4:13
Indicates that the promise to Abraham was through the righteousness of faith, not law, suggesting a different basis than an oath as highlighted in Luke 1:73.
Romans 4:13: For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, [was] not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.
Contradiction with Hebrews 7:22
Refers to Jesus as the guarantee of a better covenant, which may suggest that previous promises like the one referenced in Luke 1:73 are obsolete or fulfilled differently.
Hebrews 7:22: By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.
Contradiction with John 1:17
Contrasts the law given by Moses with grace and truth coming through Jesus Christ, potentially conflicting with the continuing relevance of an Old Testament promise mentioned in Luke 1:73.
John 1:17: For the law was given by Moses, [but] grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.
