God's use of technology
There are times, however, when God chooses to use technology to interact with humans. For instance, God uses a sword to keep people away from the tree of life ([[Genesis 3:24]]), and God wields Assyria as a weapon against Israel ([[Isaiah 10:15]]).
There are also many instances when God uses various forms of technology metaphorically. For instance, God punishes with a sword (e.g. [[Isaiah 27:1]], [[Isaiah 34:5]], [[Isaiah 66:16]], [[Jeremiah 9:16]], [[Jeremiah 12:12]]), Israel is God's weapon ([[Jeremiah 51:20]] - [Jeremiah 51:23]]).
