Yeah so. The word is -

נחם nacham

Which means in this context–

to be sorry, console oneself, regret, rue, suffer.

Whats your issue ?

You're thinking with your Quranic format head.

It's okay when reading the Quran, but the Biblical format is different.

Man, not being able to fully understand God's feelings uses human emotions figuatively ascribing them to God.

According to the Quran does the God with 99 names have any emotions?

Hi Webber

Im not sure Mahdis thinking about it much at all. I think he looks for something easy and convient that is supposed to confuse and throws it out there without too much thought.

so, GOD did not inspire the writers of the Bible to write exactly what GOD felt?

[/QUOTE] so, GOD did not inspire the writers of the Bible to write exactly what GOD felt?[/QUOTE]

How would you put it in human terminology? How big was the Hebrew vocabulary in those days?

bet GOD did not see it coming when man disobeyed, huh?

Saw it coming and let it happen. Ever been in the situation where you knew something was going to happen that you knew you wouldn't be happy about?

Giving us a free will does come with it's set-backs.

It's this simple. My perspective, of course.

You have the right to not believe in God. Considering God would like us all to go to heaven, how happy is He with what you are doing? He hasn't stopped you from doing anything you want to yet, why would He? He didn't create us as robots. Seems you preferred to follow Kurt Cobain?

No offence please, you could be the nicest guy in the world.
