According to the author of the book of Psalms, everything in the world should praise God because He made everything just by telling it to be made. This means God is so powerful that He can create anything just by giving a command.

Psalms 148:5: Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created.

Contradiction with Genesis 6:7

Speaks of God deciding to destroy His creations, indicating a power to uncreate, contrasting with the goodness and permanence implied in Psalms 148:5.

Genesis 6:7: And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. [both...: Heb. from man unto beast]

Contradiction with Ecclesiastes 3:19

Suggests that humans and animals share the same fate and questions the divine hierarchy implied in creation.

Ecclesiastes 3:19: For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast: for all [is] vanity.

Contradiction with Isaiah 45:7

God claims to create evil, contrasting with the purely good creations praised in Psalms 148:5.

Isaiah 45:7: I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these [things].

Contradiction with Jeremiah 18:8

Describes God repenting of the evil intended to create, indicating a changeability not evident in Psalms 148:5.

Jeremiah 18:8: If that nation, against whom I have pronounced, turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them.

Paradox #1

The potential contradiction with the verse is the idea that everything was created by a divine command. In science, the formation of stars, planets, and life is explained through natural processes like the Big Bang, evolution, and nuclear fusion in stars, rather than by a supernatural command. So, the conflict arises between a religious explanation of creation and scientific explanations based on observable evidence and natural laws.
