Contradiction with Matthew 27:46
Contradicts Jesus' predictions of betrayal and resurrection with his cry of feeling forsaken, suggesting uncertainty instead of certainty in his mission's outcome.
Matthew 27:46: And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
Contradiction with Luke 22:42
Shows Jesus praying to avoid his fate, potentially contradicting the determined progression towards his death mentioned in Mark 9:30.
Luke 22:42: Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done. [willing, remove: Gr. willing to remove]
Contradiction with John 12:27
Displays Jesus expressing trouble about his soul's purpose, seemingly contradicting the confident prediction of events in Mark 9:30.
John 12:27: Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.
Contradiction with Matthew 16:21
Although similar in content, provides an earlier instance of Jesus predicting his fate, indicating a potential variance in narrative timing compared to Mark 9:30.
Matthew 16:21: From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.
Contradiction with Luke 9:45
Suggests the disciples did not understand Jesus' prediction and were afraid to ask, implying a lack of clarity that contrasts with Mark 9:30's straightforward assertion.
Luke 9:45: But they understood not this saying, and it was hid from them, that they perceived it not: and they feared to ask him of that saying.
