Check out Contradictions Catalog of Psalms 136:7 for the comprehensive list of verses that contradicts Psalms 136:7. Some key contradictions and paradoxes are described below.

According to the psalmist, God made the sun, moon, and stars, and His love lasts forever. Christians believe this shows how much God cares for us and how wonderful His creations are.

Contradiction with Genesis 1:16

This verse says God made two great lights—the greater light to rule the day and the lesser light to rule the night, which attributes the creation of the heavenly lights specifically to certain lights rather than generalize all great lights.

Genesis 1:16: And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: [he made] the stars also. [to rule the day...: Heb. for the rule of the day, etc.]

Contradiction with Isaiah 45:7

This verse states that God forms light and creates darkness, giving an overarching view of God's creative power, which includes both light and darkness, unlike Psalms 136:7 that focuses solely on the creation of great lights.

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

Paradox #1

The verse mentions the creation of celestial lights, which some might interpret as heavenly bodies. A potential contradiction could arise from the order or method of creation as described, which may not align with the scientific understanding of the formation of stars, planets, and other celestial bodies through natural processes over billions of years.
