A Real and Significant Biblical Contradiction?

[Zen Badger]

I want to thank everyone for participating in the previous discussion. The contradictions suggested in that thread seemed to be either insignificant (e.g., translation errors, such as misspelling a name or a number wrong) or contradictions between interpretations of unclear texts (e.g., comparing a Catholic interpretation of one verse with a contrary Protestant interpretation of another verse).

I have, however found a contradiction between two passages of the Bible, which seem to be both genuine (e.g., not unclear and susceptible to conflicting interpretations) and significant (e.g., not based on a trivial matter, such as a misspelling of a word).

Would anyone care to investigate the apparent (perhaps real?) contradiction I've discovered?



Ezekiel 14:9: And if the prophet be deceived when he hath spoken a thing, I the Lord have deceived that prophet, and I will stretch out my hand upon him, and will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel.

Where's the rest of it?
