Contradiction with Isaiah 55:8-9
Numbers 23:27 involves a human trying to alter divine will through physical movement, countered by God's thoughts and ways being incomprehensibly higher than humans.
Isaiah 55:8-9: For my thoughts [are] not your thoughts, neither [are] your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
Contradiction with Jeremiah 29:11
Contrasts with the idea that God’s will can be influenced or cursed by others, as Balaam seeks to do, while Jeremiah assures plans of peace and not of evil.
Jeremiah 29:11: For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. [expected...: Heb. end and expectation]
Contradiction with James 1:17
Suggests the constancy and unchanging nature of God’s will, conflicting with the implication in Numbers 23:27 that blessings or curses can sway God's plans.
James 1:17: Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
Contradiction with Malachi 3:6
Proclaims the unchanging nature of God, contrasting with any implication in Numbers 23:27 that God might change based on human actions or curses.
Malachi 3:6: For I [am] the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.
Contradiction with Hebrews 13:8
Underscores Jesus Christ’s unchanging nature, contrasting with the idea that God's will could be swayed by human actions as represented by Balaam's journey.
Hebrews 13:8: Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
