Contradiction with Luke 9:59-60
This verse contradicts Mark 1:20 as Jesus challenges a follower to prioritize proclaiming the kingdom of God over familial obligations, whereas Mark's call to follow Jesus is depicted with immediate action without hesitation for such obligations.
Luke 9:59-60: And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.
Contradiction with Matthew 8:21-22
Similar to Luke 9:59-60, this verse highlights Jesus' call to prioritize discipleship over burying one's father, implying a different response from familial duties than the immediate response in Mark 1:20.
Matthew 8:21-22: And another of his disciples said unto him, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.
Contradiction with Luke 14:26
In this verse, Jesus speaks of the necessity to "hate" one's own family to be his disciple, suggesting a deeper level of sacrifice than leaving one's family as depicted in Mark 1:20.
Luke 14:26: If any [man] come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.
Contradiction with John 2:4
Jesus' response to his mother at the wedding in Cana suggests a different dynamic in family relations compared to the immediate leaving of family to follow him described in Mark 1:20.
John 2:4: Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.
