text: This technique of arguing, although basically dishonest, is astonishingly successful. The “angerer” finds out things that will especially annoy his opponent, begins to emphasize them, and as a result the opponent, emotionally upset, argues badly. The answer to this kind of illogical argumentative approach, is simply to realize that it is being used. The person who is being emotionally attacked will realize that the “angerer” himself must feel threatened or weak.

text: If someone 'angers', 'offends', 'troubles', or 'frightens' someone else, the predication is often felt to concentrate on the behavior of the angerer (offender, troubler, frightener), rather than on the transitory feelings in the object.

text: Now let’s see what Maimonides’ doctrine excludes from the imitation of God. While there are biblical passages in which God is presented as acting vengefully or angrily, these do not describe God as possessing the character trait of being an ‘avenger’ or as it were an ‘angerer’, a person of anger. Therefore for Maimonides these descriptions are not candidates for the doctrine of imitatio dei. We are not called on to imitate God’s ‘angry’ or ‘vengeful’ acts
