AMPLIFIED 2015 | Amos 1:1 The words of Amos, who was among the sheepherders of Tekoa, which he saw [in a divine revelation] concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel, two years before the earthquake. [Zech 14:5] |
Bible Question (short): How can God regret something He did? |
Question (full): From I Samuel 15:11 and I Samuel 15:35, we learn that God regretted making Saul king. My friend and I were studying this text and were puzzled at this. Specifically, regret is a word used to describe the remorse that results from making a mistake. This runs afoul of our general belief that God is omniscient and does not make mistakes. Could it be that the English translation of the original language doesn't translate well? Or is this just one of those "hard passages" that we will have to inquire about from God face-to-face? Any thoughts? |
