Is anger and fear the same?? God is slow to anger.. What if we all get equally angry? A tantrum - no thanks!!! Shabbat Shalom.

How can God be righteous and kind at same time? Are they all self contradictory? This makes an infinite dimension and is indescribable...
paigedansinger
It probably should have never been translated...
paigedansinger
This is a text for conversation not answers. Answers are flat and finalizing...
paigedansinger
We use different words and labels but it's the same One God (pluralistic nature of God) His name is evocative...
paigedansinger
If God can forgive the Golden Calf incident he can forgive anything... (Use your get out of jail card wisely) god doesn't change if I sin..
paigedansinger
Gods name is an attribute. God of mercy and God of justice are interdependent (thank God!!) one without the other would be a hot-mess!!
paigedansinger
Who God is in contemporary idioms... these 13 attributes are only in context of Ex 34. They can't be used in other context...
paigedansinger
Chanoon- grace. Slow to anger (spreading of nostrils), chesid kindness, faithful, truth, forgiving iniquity & sin...
paigedansinger
So God offers the 13 attributes. His name echos twice, compassion (word comes from womb-rechem)... The 1st word is inexplicably of creation.
paigedansinger
Intimacy is limited...Moses is put into a crack when God stands..how vulnerable. But you'll know me face to face..Intimacy is indescribable
paigedansinger
Exodus 34 - Moses got up..and carved 2 tablets..then God descended! We go up- God comes down. (that's pluralistic)
paigedansinger
Learn to define oneself by not denying anothers truth...equilateral pluralism is a good goal! Would I have gone for the calf or cruvin?
paigedansinger
Then we look at the 13 attributes of God. We get to know him from the furthest point away...like a painting we get to know it by backing up.
paigedansinger
The problem is that the people couldn't wait...they build a golden calf.
paigedansinger
Exodus 25... Let's give em a Tabernacle! It's hard for people to believe without seeing...regardless of first commandment against idolatry
paigedansinger
At Torah study...
