Divine retribution

Divine retribution (also known as divine punishment, divine abuse, or supernatural abuse) is the supernatural punishment of a single person, a group of people, or everyone, by a deity in response to some action.[1][2] An example of this could be the Ten Plagues visited upon the ancient Egyptians for abusing the Jewish children of Israel.[3] Sight of God's supernatural works and retribution would militate against faith in God's Word.[4]
