Contradiction with 1 Corinthians 14:33
This verse says God is not the author of confusion, contradicting Mark 12:36 where different interpretations cause confusion.

John 10:30: I and [my] Father are one.
Contradiction with Matthew 22:44
Echoes Mark 12:36 but in a different context, leading to different interpretations of its meaning.
Matthew 22:44: If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?
Contradiction with Acts 2:34-35
Peter applies the same psalm to Jesus' ascension, possibly creating a contradiction with its use in Mark 12:36 regarding David's authorship and divine inspiration.
Acts 2:34-35: For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
Contradiction with Hebrews 1:13
References the same psalm but uses it to argue about the supremacy of Jesus over angels, adding a different layer to its interpretation compared to Mark 12:36.
Hebrews 1:13: But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool?
Paradox #1
The verse refers to David speaking by the Holy Spirit, which some people might see as a contradiction if they believe that human authorship of scripture doesn't involve divine inspiration. Additionally, the reference to Psalms as words of David spoken by the Spirit might raise questions about the directness of God's authorship versus human authors. However, this is typically resolved in Christian theology by the belief in divine inspiration of the scriptures.
