Contradiction with Proverbs 5:18-19
This verse encourages rejoicing with the wife of one's youth, highlighting marital fidelity and satisfaction rather than the avoidance of temptation from an immoral woman, as warned in Proverbs 6:24.
Proverbs 5:18-19: Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth.
Contradiction with Song of Solomon 7:10
This verse celebrates love and affection between lovers, emphasizing a mutual relationship, whereas Proverbs 6:24 warns against the allure of an immoral woman.
Song of Solomon 7:10: I [am] my beloved's, and his desire [is] toward me.
Contradiction with 1 Corinthians 7:2-5
These verses advocate for fulfilling marital desires within the boundaries of marriage to avoid sexual immorality, contrasting Proverbs 6:24's focus on avoiding the seductress.
1 Corinthians 7:2-5: Nevertheless, [to avoid] fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.
Contradiction with Hebrews 13:4
This verse upholds marriage as honorable and to be kept pure, focusing on the purity of marriage rather than solely avoiding seduction, as in Proverbs 6:24.
Hebrews 13:4: Marriage [is] honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.
Contradiction with Matthew 5:28
Jesus expands the prohibition to even looking at a woman lustfully as committing adultery in the heart, broadening the objection beyond merely being protected from a seductress, unlike Proverbs 6:24.
Matthew 5:28: But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
Paradox #1
Proverbs 6:24 talks about avoiding the temptations of a seductress, which could conflict with the idea of showing love and compassion to all individuals, regardless of their actions. This could be seen as inconsistent because it seems to judge and warn against certain people, rather than advocating for understanding or redemption.
