Contradiction with Mark 6:5
Matthew 15:28 highlights Jesus performing a miracle remotely, praising the woman's faith, while Mark 6:5 notes Jesus could do no mighty work in his hometown due to their unbelief.
Mark 6:5: And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed [them].
Contradiction with James 1:6-7
Matthew 15:28 emphasizes faith as a key to receiving from Jesus, whereas James says not to expect anything if you waver, lacking more explicit emphasis on the granting of request by faith alone.
James 1:6-7: But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
Contradiction with John 14:13-14
While Matthew 15:28 indicates Jesus granted the request based on faith, John 14:13-14 suggests prayers are answered when asked in Jesus' name, emphasizing his authority over personal faith.
John 14:13-14: And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
Contradiction with Hebrews 11:6
Matthew 15:28 rewards the woman's faith immediately with a miracle, but Hebrews 11:6 refers to faith being pleasing to God without necessarily mentioning instant rewards or miracles.
Hebrews 11:6: But without faith [it is] impossible to please [him]: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and [that] he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
Paradox #1
The contradiction or conflict could arise from the fact that initially, there is a reluctance to help based on ethnic or cultural boundaries but then help is granted, showing a potential inconsistency in the inclusivity of compassion.
