Contradiction with Proverbs 1:7
Proverbs 1:7 speaks of the fear of the Lord as the beginning of knowledge, while Psalms 119:120 describes a fear that causes a physical reaction (trembling), suggesting a more overwhelming fear.
Proverbs 1:7: The fear of the LORD [is] the beginning of knowledge: [but] fools despise wisdom and instruction. [the beginning: or, the principal part]
Contradiction with 2 Timothy 1:7
2 Timothy 1:7 states that God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power, love, and a sound mind, in contrast to the fear and trembling described in Psalms 119:120.
2 Timothy 1:7: For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
Contradiction with 1 John 4:18
1 John 4:18 says that perfect love casts out fear because fear has to do with punishment, which contrasts with the fear and trembling towards God's judgments mentioned in Psalms 119:120.
1 John 4:18: There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.
Paradox #1
The contradiction or conflict in this context could arise from the expressed fear and reverence described in the verse, which may clash with the concepts of love and trust that are also central to religious teachings. Some might find it inconsistent to have both a deep love and trust in a benevolent deity while simultaneously feeling fear. This could create a conflict in how one is supposed to feel towards the divine.
