Who [is] this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this [that is] glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save.
Wherefore [art thou] red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in the...
Isaiah 63:1-6 Edom to be uninhabited like Sodom and Gomorrah. - Jeremiah 49:7-22/ Isaiah 34:9-15
Yes, denounced by YHWH - Malachi1:1-5
So, 'yes ' God is the Warrior. 'He' is the 'He' in this context as the Warrior.
So, the 'God of Love' is Warrior: when necessary. - Isaiah 34:2; 1st John...
The difference is that the LORD knew Esau/Edom from the foundations of the earth, and knew his and his seed's end, and apparently things didn't and won't end as well for that family line as they might have hoped. Keep in mind that the Arabs claim to be of Ishmael, but their native homeland was...
Malachi 1
1 The burden of the word of the Lord to Israel by Malachi.
2 I have loved you, saith the Lord. Yet ye say, Wherein hast thou loved us? Was not Esau Jacob's brother? saith the Lord: yet I loved Jacob,
3 And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons...
Perhaps, but I do notice that the phrase 'by the hand of ' occurs three times and only in Haggai (ok and yes in Malachi)

It's just a way of saying that he was the medium through which they received the prophecy. Same thing as in Malachi1:1. The prophecy is going through the prophet to someone.
"...the word of G-d in the hand of (ie. through) Haggai the prophet to Zerubbabel..."
"...the word of G-d to Israel in...
Paul is purposefully misquoting the Tanakh here. First, lets start with Romans 9: 10-13 where Paul firsts establishes this notion of God predetermining peoples fates. Here is the passage which everything else hinges off of:
And not only this, but when Rebecca also had conceived by one man, even...
"Jacob and Esau/loved and hated before birth
The first of Paul's examples is his reference to Jacob and Esau.
And not only this, but when Rebecca also had conceived by one man, even by our father Isaac(for the children not yet being born, nor having done any good or evil, that the purpose of...
As a working auto technician, I have had individuals try to repair their vehicle without seriously consulting the proper information, only to make a "mess" of the problem or rashly condemning a part without a critical examination. These were hasty in their thinking. So, what "facts" are you...
Your simile is quite flawed. All my comments are based on the writings of the book itself and some of the effects it has had. The facts I present are all verifiable. They're in your Bible.
Your "for example" here in no way mitigates the facts I presented. I never said the Bible is without its...

Jacob did not swindle Esau of the birthright due to the first-born for nothing. There must have been a Divine reason for that, metaphorically or not, but something was on the make.
Remember why Ruben, the first son of Jacob lost his birthright? Because of his...
I have a question concerning the bible. This is basically a question for those who believe in it but I'd like everyones viewpoint. I've noticed a lot of one thing in here from bible supporters and that is: When a question comes up that contradicts something else said in the bible or contradicts...
