Contradiction with Zechariah 1:18-19
Zechariah 1:19 mentions "four horns," whereas verse 18 introduces "four horns" as part of the same vision, seemingly creating a contradiction in continuity rather than content, as verse 19 is an explanation of 18.
Zechariah 1:18-19: Then lifted I up mine eyes, and saw, and behold four horns.
Contradiction with Daniel 8:20-21
Zechariah 1:19 refers to "four horns" symbolizing nations that scatter Judah, contrasting Daniel 8:20-21 where two horns are explicitly identified as the kings of Media and Persia, focusing on specific, named kingdoms sans scattering.
Daniel 8:20-21: The ram which thou sawest having [two] horns [are] the kings of Media and Persia.
Contradiction with Revelation 5:6
In Zechariah 1:19, four horns refer to earthbound powers, while Revelation 5:6 introduces symbolism with "seven horns" representing power in a heavenly realm, differing in both number and domain of influence.
Revelation 5:6: And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.
Contradiction with Amos 6:13
Zechariah 1:19 speaks of powers that scatter Judah, clashing with Amos 6:13, where Ephraim is criticized for rejoicing in a conquest that is ultimately considered empty, indicating an inconsistency in the outcome of actions by nations or powers.
Amos 6:13: Ye which rejoice in a thing of nought, which say, Have we not taken to us horns by our own strength?
