The Angry God?

People speak of the “angry God of the Old Testament” without considering why he is angry. Yet anyone reading the Old Testament prophets who speak for him will quickly discover that God is outraged by injustice—when the powerful prevail over the powerless and the privileged over the disadvantaged, when his image bearers are, in any way, dishonored. –Carolyn Custis James in Half the Church
