In fact, the Scripture writers’ main problem with Yahweh’s anger is that he doesn’t get angry more often! They are far more frustrated with God’s mercy than his wrath. They look out at the overwhelming amount of injustice in the world and vent their angst to God.22 One of the most frequent prayers in the Bible is, “How long?”23 The prophets, kings, politicians, farmers, and shepherds who write Scripture have no doubt that one day, Yahweh will bring evil to its logical conclusion. They just can’t figure out, Why does he delay? Why does justice usually come in the next life, and not this one?
