Contradiction with Matthew 15:9
This verse suggests that teachings based on human commands, as opposed to divine commandments, are in vain, whereas Proverbs 6:23 highlights the importance of commandments and reproof in guiding and correcting life.
Matthew 15:9: But in vain they do worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men.
Contradiction with Romans 7:6
This verse emphasizes being delivered from the law and serving in newness of spirit rather than the oldness of the letter, which contradicts Proverbs 6:23's view of the law as a guiding light.
Romans 7:6: But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not [in] the oldness of the letter. [that being...: or, being dead to that]
Contradiction with Galatians 3:10
This verse discusses the curse of the law for those not continuing in all things written in it, which contradicts Proverbs 6:23’s positive portrayal of the law and reproof.
Galatians 3:10: For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed [is] every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.
Contradiction with Hebrews 8:13
This verse speaks of the old covenant becoming obsolete with the establishment of the new, contrasting with Proverbs 6:23 that upholds the law's value.
Hebrews 8:13: In that he saith, A new [covenant], he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old [is] ready to vanish away.
