    I have one more Biblical oddity that I've stumbled upon. It is a classic line you hear once in a while.

    God said He is not a respecter of men.

    ( Romans 2:11)For there is no respect of persons with God.

    When God remembered his covenant, he respected the captives of the children of Israel.

    ( Exodus 2:24-25) And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob. 25 And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God had respect unto them.

    This example makes it clear that God has respect for meaningful mortal endeavors. If you wanted to get technical, you could rationalize that while God is not a respecter of persons, he sure do love Him some whole house of Israel.
