What gave it away? Ruining someone's entire life, taking all he loves, inflicting him with the worst pains a human can feel, just to prove "See? I told you he's my greatest bootlick"? Nuking an entire town and killing someone for the entirely human reaction of looking back at the home they left behind like some even more twisted version of Orpheus and Eurydike?
Or giving his creations curiosity, tempting their curiosity, enabling them to indulge their curiosity, then yelling at them, throwing them out, condemning them to mortality, inflicting suffering on them and all their descendants as punishment for their ancestors' curiosity who didn't even have the comprehension to know what they were doing was wrong?
Yes, I know that story is supposed to be a metaphor, but I have yet to find an explanation that doesn't make him look like an absolute twat.
No mixing fabrics, fucken killjoy.
Actually, that one I'll give a pass for its context: Cheats mixing in cheap materials with expensive ones, but demanding the full price as if the whole thing was made of the expensive one.
Now the bit in Numbers about the cursed water, that was a bit fucked up - you shouldn't have to secretly cheat on your husband just to get an abortion. Imagine someone catches you and you get put to death instead. And what if he doesn't suspect anything or doesn't give enough of a shit to charge you? Just too unreliable.
I am making a joke ai understand a good bit of context, plus if memory serves right there is a debate amongst scholars if the laws of say Leviticus was a general law that applied to all Hebrews or simply the tribe of Leviticus. Basically were they clan laws or not.
