As i read the Bible, i have a hard time buying the narrative that God is all knowing. He just gets way too angry. [Spirituality & Religion]

Thinking specifically of Isaiah and Jeremiah, God is so, so pissed that the people are worshipping idols and not obeying the law of their ancestors.
Like my anger will burn like a fire forever, i will have your enemies strip and rape you, your bodies will be like piles of manure on the ground etc etc.

Would someone really be (or reasonably be) that angry about something they knew from the very beginning was coming?
Seems crazy to me.

He doesn't seem very forgiving this all forgiving God.

Well he actually is to some degree. His chosen people fuck up again and again and he gives them another shot.
It's just that when he's had enough (although he presumably knew what would happen before hand) he is moved to horrifying violence without mercy.

Edit: I mean he kills a whole mess of them each time but he also gives them another shot lol
