Cruel
Cruel to children.
23 From there Elisha went up to Bethel. As he was walking along the road, some boys came out of the town and jeered at him. “Get out of here, baldy!” they said. “Get out of here, baldy!” 24 He turned around, looked at them and called down a curse on them in the name of the LORD. Then two bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the boys.Holy shit! Two bears ripping apart FORTY TWO kids because they called Elisha a baldy! That is some righteous anger of the Lord business here. Jehovah was not fucking around. This is the sort of disproportionate response intended to send a very serious message to those who would dare mock the follically challenged. Especially should they be in the service of the Lord.
