In the Torah anger is forbidden; love replaces hostility.<\/li>\n<li>Genesis 49:5\u20137 Jacob rebukes Simeon and Levi: <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><em>\u201cCursed be their anger, for it was fierce; and their wrath, for it was cruel.\u201d<\/em><\/span> In the Torah anger is condemned as destructive, the Torah warns against uncontrolled anger.<\/li>\n<li>Numbers 20:10\u201312 Moses strikes the rock in anger, leading to his punishment. Note the consequences of anger. This shows how anger can disqualify one from blessing.<\/li>\n<li>Deuteronomy 9:7\u20138 Moses recalls God\u2019s anger at Israel\u2019s rebellion but intercedes to avert destruction. According to the Torah, anger is to be redirected through intercession, Moses models turning away wrath and seeking mercy.<\/li>\n<li>Exodus 23:4\u20135 Command to help an enemy\u2019s donkey if it is struggling.

This is essentially <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><em>\u201cput away anger.\u201d <\/em><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Anger Redirected<\/span>: Torah often depicts intercession (Moses pleading for Israel) as the antidote to divine anger, modeling how humans should redirect anger into mercy.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Anger and Justice<\/span>: Commands like helping an enemy\u2019s donkey show that Torah replaces anger with acts of compassion and justice, preventing bitterness from festering.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Torah frames anger as dangerous, cruel, and incompatible with covenantal love. We are commanded to avoid grudges, vengeance, and hatred, replacing them with compassion and reconciliation. Paul\u2019s exhortation in Ephesians 4:31 echoes this ethic. This is how Paul taught Torah in the NT, the Torah has not passed away!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bits of Torah Truths &#8211; #Torah Concept in the NT: Put Away Anger &#8211; Episode 671 Ephesians 4:31 \u05d4\u05b8\u05e1\u05b4\u05d9\u05e8\u05d5\u05bc \u05de\u05b4\u05db\u05b6\u05bc\u05dd \u05db\u05b8\u05bc\u05dc \u05de\u05b0\u05e8\u05b4\u05d9\u05e8\u05d5\u05bc\u05ea \u05d5\u05b0\u05d7\u05b5\u05de\u05b8\u05d4 \u05d5\u05b0\u05db\u05b7\u05e2\u05b7\u05e1 \u05d5\u05bc\u05e6\u05b0\u05e2\u05b8\u05e7\u05b8\u05d4 \u05d5\u05b0\u05d2\u05b4\u05d3\u05bc\u05d5\u05bc\u05e3 \u05d5\u05b0\u05db\u05b8\u05dc \u05e8\u05b4\u05e9\u05b0\u05c1\u05e2\u05b8\u05d4. #torah#torahwisdom#torahtruth#torahforlife#torah4you#torahtruth Ephesians 4:31 4:31 Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice.
