5. An exception of sorts is the reference to Yahweh’s “fury” (kharon) in Exodus 15:7. The Hebrew noun almost always occurs in association with another word for anger (’aph). It stands alone in this verse, however, and as something “sent” by Yahweh, which consumes his enemies like stubble. “Fury” in this instance should therefore be understood as a weapon hurled by the Divine Warrior against the Warrior’s enemies, as opposed to a reference to Yahweh’s emotional disposition towards the Egyptians.
