Exactly. In fact, Jesus even refers to the impossibility of his being at odds with his Father's purposes in John 5:19, when he talks about how "the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does."

I think I remember something else about that somewhere... Where it basically said that God worked through his son.

But I couldn't say if I'm remembering it right.

It's a difference in technology, more than anything else.

Remember, this is the Bronze Age. Nobody knew how to work iron. People who had figured it out were at the top of the tech curve. Iron chariots are, to Bronze Age tribesmen, the same thing as spacecraft are to us.

But would iron chariots or scythes come first? Outside of the bible, I can't say I recall of any other accounts of iron chariots being used. When and where were they used, if there's more?
