Contradiction with John 2:10
This verse describes the practice of serving good wine first at a wedding feast, implicitly supporting the consumption of wine during celebrations, which can be seen as contrasting with the caution against winebibbing in Proverbs 23:20.
John 2:10: And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: [but] thou hast kept the good wine until now.
Contradiction with 1 Timothy 5:23
Here, Paul advises Timothy to drink a little wine for his stomach's sake, suggesting a positive use of wine, which contradicts the warning against being among winebibbers in Proverbs 23:20.
1 Timothy 5:23: Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities.
Contradiction with Psalm 104:14-15
This passage praises God for providing wine that makes the heart glad, which seems to contrast with the negative view of indulging in wine expressed in Proverbs 23:20.
Psalm 104:14-15: He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth;
Paradox #1
Proverbs 23:20 warns against excessive indulgence in food and drink. A potential contradiction could arise if one also considers the importance of enjoying life and the good things that God provides, as suggested in other biblical passages. The tension might be between living a disciplined life and celebrating freely, possibly leading to confusion over how much is too much.
