What does it mean when the Bible speaks of gods being judged? Is wrath just God's angry impulse, or is it the just consequence of misplaced allegiance?

In this episode, Carey dives deep into Deuteronomy 32, reading it not just as a poetic song, but as a cosmic indictment—against Israel, against the nations, and against their gods. Drawing from biblical imagery, ancient Near Eastern thought, and cosmic geography, this episode unpacks why wrath in the biblical story often comes not through lightning bolts, but through the unraveling of covenantal faithfulness.

You'll explore:

  • Why the mirroring of heaven and earth is key to understanding judgment
  • How military destruction, pestilence, and exile are linked to divine powers
  • Whether the Bible is de-mythologizing or re-mythologizing its spiritual worldview
  • Why God’s wrath is giving people over to what they desire—and how that's an act of divine faithfulness
  • Connections between Deuteronomy 32, Psalm 91, Habakkuk 3, and 1 Enoch

With respectful engagement of Dr. Michael Heiser’s work and thoughtful interaction with ancient context, this episode opens the gates to a deeper biblical theology of wrath, judgment, and restoration.
