| Judg 2:1 One day the Angel of the Lord arrived at Bochim, coming
from Gilgal, and announced to the people of Israel, "I brought you out of
Egypt into this land that I promised to your ancestors, and I said that I
would never break my covenant with you, TLB Judg 6:11 Joash's son, Gideon, had been threshing wheat by hand in the bottom of a grape press-a pit where grapes were pressed to make wine-for he was hiding from the Midianites. 12 The Angel of the Lord appeared to him and said, "Mighty soldier, the Lord is with you!" 13 "Stranger," Gideon replied, "if the Lord is with us, why has all this happened to us? And where are all the miracles our ancestors have told us about-such as when God brought them out of Egypt? Now the Lord has thrown us away and has let the Midianites completely ruin us." 14 Then the Lord turned to him and said, "I will make you strong! Go and save Israel from the Midianites! I am sending you!" 15 But Gideon replied, "Sir, how can I save Israel? My family is the poorest in the whole tribe of Manasseh, and I am the least thought of in the entire family!" =Jehovah  16
Whereupon the Lord said to him, "But I, Jehovah,
will be with you! And you shall quickly
destroy the Midianite hordes!" ... 19 Gideon hurried home and roasted a young
goat and baked some unleavened bread from a bushel of flour. Then, carrying
the meat in a basket and broth in a pot, he took it out to the Angel, who
was beneath the oak tree, and presented it to him.

21 the Angel touched the meat and bread with his staff, and fire flamed up
from the rock and consumed them! And suddenly the Angel was gone! 22 When
Gideon realized that it had indeed been the Angel of the Lord, he cried out,
"Alas, O Lord God, for I have seen the Angel of the Lord face to face!" 23
"It's all right," the Lord replied. "Don't be afraid! You shall not die."
24 And Gideon built an altar there and named it "The Altar of Peace with
Jehovah." (The altar is still there in Ophrah in the land of the Abiezrites.)

2 Sam 22:6 I (David) was trapped and bound by hell
and death; 7 But I called upon the Lord in my distress, And he heard
me from his Temple (=heaven). My cry reached his ears. 8 Then the earth shook
and trembled; The foundations of the heavens quaked Because of his wrath.

| Zechariah 12:10 "And I will pour out on the house

him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves

1:7 Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion and are trying
to pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But even if we or an angel from heaven
should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let him be
eternally condemned! 9 As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody
is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let him be eternally
condemned! NIV Why Jesus/Yeshua spoke in Parables To Jews not Gentiles Matt 15:24

| Not bringing
peaceMatt 10:34
"Don't imagine that I came to bring peace to the earth! No, rather, a sword.
35 I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her
mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law- 36 a man's worst
enemies will be right in his own home! TLB Josh 5:13 As Joshua was sizing up the city of Jericho, a man appeared nearby with a drawn sword. Joshua strode over to him and demanded, "Are you friend or foe?" 14
"I am the commander-in-chief of the Lord's army," he replied.Joshua fell to the ground before him and worshiped him and said, "Give me your commands." 15 "Take off your shoes," the Commander told him, "for this is holy ground." And Joshua did. TLB Jesus' attitude to opponents John
8:44 For you are the children of your father the devil and you love to do
the evil things he does. He was a murderer from the beginning and a hater
of truth-there is not an iota of truth in him. When he lies, it is perfectly
normal; for he is the father of liars. 45 And so when I tell the truth, you
just naturally don't believe it! TLBA stumbling stone for "law" believers Rom 9:30
What shall we say then? That Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness,
have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness of faith; 31 but Israel,
pursuing the law of righteousness, has not attained to the law of righteousness.
32 Why? Because they did not seek it by faith, but as it were, by the works
of the law. For they stumbled at that stumbling stone. 33 As it is written:
"Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and rock of offense, And whoever
believes on Him will not be put to shame." NKJV

His Son, was angry and upset too. He was not always calm, as is seen by His
action and words when He in anger cleansed His Father’s house from the
moneychangers, when the Bible refers in this respect to the verse from Psalm
69:9 “The zeal for your house has eaten Me up” (See John 2:13-17)Ps 69:9 for zeal for your house consumes me, and the insults of those who insult you fall on me.NIV Ps 2:9 You will rule them with an iron scepter; you will dash them to pieces like pottery." 10 Therefore, you kings, be wise; be warned, you rulers of the earth. 11 Serve the LORD with fear and rejoice with trembling. 12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry and you be destroyed in your way, for his wrath can flare up in a moment.Blessed are all who take refuge in him.

| Luke 11:17 Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them: "Any kingdom divided
against itself will be ruined, and a house divided against itself will fall.
18 If Satan is divided against himself, how can his kingdom stand? I say
this because you claim that I drive out demons by Beelzebub. 19 Now if I
drive out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your followers drive them out?
So then, they will be your judges. 20 But if I drive out demons by the finger
of God, then the kingdom of God has come to you. NIV Those given to him John 17:3 Now this
is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ,
whom you have sent. ... 6 "I have revealed you to those
whom you gave me out of the world. They were yours; you gave them
to me and they have obeyed your word... 9 I pray for them.
I am not praying for the world,
but for those you have given me,
for they are yours. 10 All I have is yours, and all you have is mine. And
glory has come to me through them. ... 11 Holy Father, protect them by the
power of your name-the name you gave me-so that they
may be one as we are one. 12 While I was with them, I protected them
and kept them safe by that name you gave me. None has
been lost except the one doomed to destruction (Judas) so that Scripture
would be fulfilled... 20 "My prayer is not for them alone.
I pray also for those who will believe in me through
their message (in future), 21 that all of them may be one, Father, just as
you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the
world may believe that you have sent me. 22 I have given them the glory that
you gave me, that they may be one as we are one: 23 I in them and you in
me. May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you
sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me. NIV

which in your faithfulness you swore to David? 50 Remember, Lord, how your
