An angry God is not a rational God. Jesus was never angered to the point of killing. He had control of his ego…. The story of Jesus is simply to show us that we too can take the path of light, by serving others vs self. What do you think was the message when he washed their feet? And told them that if they do good to each other they are doing good to him?
Here are a few Bible passages that discuss God's righteous anger. Notice there are references to this anger in the NT as well:
Psalm 7:11 - "God is a righteous judge, a God who displays his wrath every day."
Romans 1:18 - "The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness."
Ephesians 5:6 - "Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God's wrath comes on those who are disobedient."
Colossians 3:6 - "Because of these, the wrath of God is coming."
Revelation 14:10 - "They, too, will drink the wine of God's fury, which has been poured full strength into the cup of his wrath. They will be tormented with burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb."
Nahum 1:2-3 - "The Lord is a jealous and avenging God; the Lord takes vengeance and is filled with wrath. The Lord takes vengeance on his foes and vents his wrath against his enemies."
Exodus 32:10-11 - "Now leave me alone so that my anger may burn against them and that I may destroy them. Then I will make you into a great nation."
Jeremiah 21:5 - "I myself will fight against you with an outstretched hand and a mighty arm in furious anger and in great wrath."
Zephaniah 3:8 - "Therefore wait for me," declares the Lord, "for the day I will stand up to testify. I have decided to assemble the nations, to gather the kingdoms and to pour out my wrath on them—all my fierce anger. The whole world will be consumed by the fire of my jealous anger."
It's important to note that while these passages speak of God's righteous anger, they are just a part of the larger biblical narrative that also emphasizes God's love, mercy, and desire for reconciliation. The concept of God's anger is often balanced with his willingness to forgive and provide a way for people to turn back to him.
I think you really need to look more into what's called Progressive Revelation. This refers to how God has revealed himself over time to Mankind, ultimately culminating into the revelation of Himself through Jesus.

Sorry to still disagree. You can’t convince me of righteous anger because you have been conditioned to accept that version of evil.
