Thematic Bible: Folly of provoking
Thematic Bible
Anger of God » Folly of provoking
Do they offend and provoke Me to anger?” says the Lord. “Is it not themselves [they offend], to their own shame?”
Do we [really] provoke the Lord to jealousy [when we eat food sacrificed to handmade “gods” at pagan feasts]? Are we [spiritually] stronger than He? [Certainly not! He knows that the idols are nothing. But we deeply offend Him.]
