I’ve studied it pretty extensively. That’s only one example. This is awesomeness of God and not something that we can understand. Not do we need to defend God and what He declares of Himself.
This is the awesomeness and awfulness of God and why we should rightfully respect and fear him. Crocodile Dundee said that God and me, we be mates. In modernity we may have too cavalier an attitude. As C S Lewis said in the Chronicle of Narnia. He is not a tame Lion. As such, He does what he will, even preaching to Israel in such a way as to keep them from understanding.
