    I'm going for a swim but here's another copy & paste for you to ponder. And please don't accuse me of only posting from "apologist" sites as I can accuse you of only copy and pasting from atheist sites.

    RM, I am also using this reference as a copy & paste. As I told him in the beginning, until he gets to more meatier things it only warrants a copy and paste. If the copy & paste is beyond his grasp as I did with the original example I will apply my own reasoning as with the original language to explain it further. So, please don't accuse me of using another faiths reasoning, because if I use the reasoning's from the Jehovah witnesses I know what you and others would say. We start with this on his failure to understand the basics I shall introduce my own reasoning's. Now he has two to squirm over and try to refute. Hopefully in his own words.


    "The Lord shall go forth as a mighty man, He shall stir up jealousy like a man of war: He shall cry, yea roar; He shall prevail against His enemies". Isaiah 42:13


    The Lord shall go forth - This and the following verses give the reasons why they should praise Yahweh. He would go forth in his might to overcome and subdue his foes, and to deliver his people. In his conquests, and in the establishment of his kingdom, all people would have occasion to rejoice and be glad.

    As a mighty man - As a hero, as a warrior. Yahweh is often in the Scriptures represented as a hero, or a man of war:

    Yahweh is a man of war:

    Yahweh is his name. - Exodus 15:3.

    Who is this King of glory?

    Yahweh, strong and mighty;

    Yahweh mighty in battle. - Psalm 24:8.

    Compare Psalm 45:3; Isaiah 27:1; Isaiah 30:30,

    He shall stir up jealousy - He shall rouse his vengeance, or his indignation. The word קנאה qin'âh means vengeance, or indignation, as well as jealousy. The image here is that of a warrior who rushes on impetuously to take vengeance on his foes.

    He shall cry - He shall give a shout, or a loud clamor. Warriors usually entered a battle with a loud shout, designed to stimulate their own courage, and to intimidate their foes. All this language is taken from such an entrance on an engagement, and denotes the fixed determination of God to overthrow all his enemies.
