War, Man of
International Standard Bible Encyclopedia · James Orr and contributors
('ish milchamah):
"Yahweh is a man of war:
Yahweh is his name" (Ex 15:3).
In early Israel the character of Yahweh as the war-God forms a prominent feature in the conception of God (Nu 10:35; 21:14; Jos 5:13; 10:11; Jud 5:4,13,20,23,31, etc.).
See GOD, NAMES OF, III, 8; LORD OF HOSTS; and HDB, V, 635 ff.
