    That's not a 'contradiction', it maybe a logical fallacy however depending on what you mean by 'true
    That's a classic case of playing with words. The definition of a contradiction is clear.

    I'll give you just three of thousands of examples of contradictions in the bible, but I suspect I am wasting my time with people who think that the Bible was written or inspired by God.

    Here they are:
    “… the earth abideth for ever.” — Ecclesiastes 1:4“
    … the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.” — 2Peter 3:10
    These two statements can't both be true. They contradict each other.

    “… I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.” — Genesis 32:30
    “No man hath seen God at any time…”– John 1:18
    These two statements can't both be true. They contradict each other.

    “… with God all things are possible.” — Matthew 19:26“
    …The LORD was with Judah; and he drave out the inhabitants of the mountain; but could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.” — Judges 1:19
    These two statements can't both be true. They contradict each other.
