Reference: Vengeance

American

In De 32:35; Ro 12:19; Heb 10:30; Jude 1:7, means retributive justice- a prerogative of God with which those interfere who seek to avenge themselves. So also in Ac 28:4; though many suppose that the islanders meant the goddess of justice, Dike, whom the Greeks and Romans regarded as a daughter of Jupiter, and feared as an independent, just, and unappeasable deity.
