Book of Isaiah 13-16 The weapons of his indignation

Isaiah 13-16

Isaiah brings back the war mongering god we all know and love!!!

God's scorched earth policy is in full effect.  Men are run thru, children are dashed before the eyes of their parents and the women will be raped.

The name Lucifer gets a quick mention in 14:3, but it doesn't seem to apply to the devil.
We are also once more reminded that God will punish the children for the deeds of the father.

We learn about a rare animal, the Cockatrice!  I'll have to go to the museum of natural history to see one because I think they're extinct now, I mean, the Bible doesn't have any fallacy in it.
I wonder why the new translations of the Bible changed it to viper or asp?

Money line:

16:11 Wherefore my bowels shall sound like an harp for Moab

Bottom line, Babylon and Moab are f@&ked.
Who's gonna be next?

EDIT:  Speaking of Babylon, I just found this in my Facebook feed.  It also has a piece on the Catholic Church!  God is indeed guiding me!

Judges 17-21 The Final Judgement

Judges 17-21

Micah steals money from his mom but then cops to it and is then "Blessed by the LORD"  I think the storyteller is being sarcastic.
She wanted to use the money for graven and molten images.  Micah uses the rest to hire a Levite.

Chapter 19 is an obvious retelling of the story of Lot and Sodom & Gomorrah but with a grotest twist .

Chapter 20 is all about the Benjamins.  Still not exactly sure why they would go to war against the rest of the tribes (other then condoning the gang rape of chapter 19).  After the battle in which al the women were killed, only 400 Benjamin males remain.  What to do?  Wipe out another group and take their virgins.  But alas, we're 200 virgins short.  They pick up the remainder by kidnapping girls dancing in the fields.

You can't make this stuff up.  Or can you?
