Yeah, but they extracted a promise that the Yahweh thing wasn't
going to do that again. Breach of contract obviously.
In _God: a Biography_ Miles makes the point that while the LORD GOD
does the destroying and apple-tempting, it's regular old GOD who
does the dominion-giving and rainbow-making. He argues that this
division between nice God and nasty God signifies an imperfect
fusion of the previous deities into the single God character.
Best,
Eric
Pray for a Better God
