Adonai (ה׳) means "my Lord" and has absolutely no connection to the term "wrathful deity". The Jewish Bible uses wrath to describe God's emotional character at certain points, i.e. God's wrath came against you, but it does not use the term "wrathful deity". This term is more commonly associated with Eastern Religions, which use the wrathful deity as the opposing force to a Boddhistva or peace. The central difference is that while God certainly enjoins violence in the Jewish Bible, He does not appear to relish it. Contrarily, wrathful gods often adorn themselves with human skulls, use disaster and calamity as their methods of speech, and clearly enjoy making others tremble. Of course, a number of noted Atheists have argued that the Jewish God does enjoy these things, but Jewish tradition strongly disagrees with these assertions.
