Given the above definitions, have you read anywhere in the OT describing God himself using anything manmade? (spears, knives, etc.) From what I have read anything manmade was used only by man (spears, armies etc.)
When God allows the Hebrews to win against their enemies, the OT doesn't really describe what he did. Did he make them stronger or the enemy weaker etc.? The same goes for when God removes his protection from the Hebrews. Did he make them weaker or the enemy stronger? What did he remove?
God apparently wasn't able to manipulate manmade items that couldn't be influenced by nature.
God seems to exert his power by using nature. Given all the natural disasters that plagued the Hebrews, and yet they still strayed continually according to the OT.
So given that the Hebrews were a stubborn people, according to the OT, God apparently was unable to control or influence them consistently.
Doesn't sound like the Hebrew God had
unlimited power.
A gentle answer turns away wrath, But a harsh word stirs up anger.
