As we look at the contexts of these passages, we see not a divine contradiction but a consistent pattern. The Old Testament characters themselves understood both the changing and the unchanging aspect of God’s nature. Moses, David, Hezekiah, the psalmist, Jeremiah, Amos, Joel and Jonah all knew that the flexible aspect of Yahweh’s character does not change. According to the Old Testament, God is predictably flexible, constantly changeable and immutably mutable, at least in regard to showing mercy toward repentant sinners.
