Contradiction with 1 Kings 11:11
The Lord tells Solomon that He will tear the kingdom from him due to disobedience, contradicting the promise of continual reign for obedient descendants.

Contradiction with Jeremiah 22:30
Jehoiachin is recorded as childless with no man of his seed prospering on the throne, opposing the perpetual throne promise.

Contradiction with Hosea 4:6
God's people are destroyed for lack of knowledge, indicating that knowledge and obedience to God are not always maintained, contrasting the condition of keeping the covenant.

Contradiction with Ezekiel 21:27
God announces the end of the current order until He comes whose right it is, which suggests a discontinuation, contrary to the conditional promise of continuation.

Contradiction with 2 Chronicles 36:17-21
The Babylonians destroy Jerusalem and the temple and take the king captive, ending the Davidic line's immediate rule.
2 Chronicles 36:17-21: Therefore he brought upon them the king of the Chaldees, who slew their young men with the sword in the house of their sanctuary, and had no compassion upon young man or maiden, old man, or him that stooped for age: he gave [them] all into his hand.
Paradox #1
Psalms 132:12 emphasizes the importance of descendants following certain commandments to maintain a covenant. A contradiction might arise if one considers free will versus predetermined obedience. It implies that one's relationship with God is contingent upon actions rather than faith, which could conflict with the belief that faith alone is sufficient for a covenant with God. This raises questions about the balance between actions and beliefs in maintaining a spiritual relationship.
