Judges 1:19 Christanon 09/01/18 (Sat) 23:28:42 49af7b No.695375

>Jehovah was with Judah, and they took possession of the mountainous region, but could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.

Why can't God fight against iron?

Because protestants bibles have no commentaries because they are supposed to figure out by themselves and then shit happens obviously.

What’s stronger:

>Israelites who side with God, the almighty creator and sustainer of the universe and the heavenly realm

>Guys with iron chariots

If Yahweh fights with them, they should have no trouble defeating the inhabitants of the hill valley

God could, but the nerve of the Israelites couldn't handle facing the latest in the contemporary military tech.

13 Sisera called together all his chariots, nine hundred iron chariots, and all the people who were with him, from Harosheth-hagoyim to the river Kishon.

14 Deborah said to Barak, “Arise! For this is the day in which the Lord has given Sisera into your hands; behold, the Lord has gone out before you.” So Barak went down from Mount Tabor with ten thousand men following him.

15 The Lord routed Sisera and all his chariots and all his army with the edge of the sword before Barak; and Sisera alighted from his chariot and fled away on foot.

16 But Barak pursued the chariots and the army as far as Harosheth-hagoyim, and all the army of Sisera fell by the edge of the sword; not even one was left.

Judges 4:13-16 NASB

Yahweh is.

It's one of those technical things just because He was with them doesn't mean He was doing anything for them. in this case He was just most likely watching

This. Israelites were still in the bronze age, they had yet to reach iron age technology.

And the Lord was with Juda, and he possessed the hill country: but was not able to destroy the inhabitants of the valley, because they had many chariots armed with scythes.

Ver. 19. Was not able, &c. Through a cowardly fear of their chariots armed with hooks and scythes, and for want of confidence in God.

Heb. does not say expressly that Juda could not: quia non ad expellendum, &c. He had not the courage or the will. With God's assistance, what had he to fear? Were these Philistines with their chariots, more terrible than the giants in their fortresses?

Calvinism is false, and God is not purely monoenergetic - If you won't cooperate, He won't force you.
