	Thor - God of Thunder (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		In Norse mythology, Thor was the god of war, thunder and strength, and son of Odin.
		He was also the god of the household and of the common people.
		The lightning's flash was his mighty hammer, Mjolnir, hurled in battle with the frost giants, and the rolling thunder was the rumble of his fiery chariot.

		God is allowing us a personal time to open our hearts and be healed of our unbelief and idolatry of what was, and in some cases what is, so that we can press into and strain for what is to come on earth and in heaven.
		The Thunder of God’s power is coming and it will not just be a move to awaken the church, but it will be for the purpose of Jesus inheriting His reward through the church that is not just the four-walled building, but those in whom His presence dwells all over the world.
		God will be speaking clearly to prophets about His key people, (and I am not speaking just of a ministry focus here but also in all the secular arenas), especially hidden ones that will require the revelation of seers to even identify.

	Perkons
		The origin of this greatest mythic family in Latvian folk religion is influenced both by the pattern of God's sons ( Dieva deli) and Sun's daughters ( Saules meitas) - the ancient mythical beings, having their parallels in Lithuanian, Hindu, and Greek mythology, and by the model of ordinary peasants' family.
		In the Latvian version of the Indo-European myth of the Heavenly Wedding, reflected in Latvian folksong material, God's son (Dieva dels) or Morning star ( Auseklis) or Moon ( Meness, masculine in Latvian) marries Sun's daughter (Saules meita, Sun - female in Latvian), and Perkons is a relative of the bride (sometimes of the groom).
		The chariot is a well-known attribute of a Thunder god (e.g., in Lithuanian, Hindu, Scandinavian, etc. mythologies) and is not characteristic for Latvian Perkons.

		Of anthropomorphic representations of the gods we have no clear evidence, though we do hear of shrines in sacred enclosures, at which sacrifices were offered.
		We hear also a good deal of witches and valkyries, and of charms and magic; as an instance we may cite the fact that certain (Runic) letters were credited, as in the North, with the power of loosening bonds.

	Jamieson, Faussett and Brown Bible Commentary
		Literally, "He maketh it (the rain-cloud) find place," whether for correction, if (it be destined) for His land (that is, for the part inhabited by man, with whom God deals, as opposed to the parts uninhabited, on which rain is at other times appointed to fall, Job 38:26, 27) or for mercy.
		It is because now man sees not the bright sunlight (God's dazzling majesty), owing to the intervening "clouds" ( Job 26:9), that they dare to wish to "speak" before God ( Job 37:20).
		Job and other sufferers cannot see the light of God's countenance through the clouds of trial: but the wind will soon clear them off, and God shall appear again: let them but wait patiently, for He still shines, though for a time they see Him not (see on Job 37:23).

		The Thunderer’s son now crept from the Devil’s shoulder along the clouds as stealthily as a cat, and taking a louse from behind his own ear, he set it on his father’s nose.

	THUNDER ISSUE 4
		Although the commentaries are talking of the types of sacrifice given to each of these 'major' Gaulish gods, it is still a correlation between the Celtic thunder god and the Norse/Germanic thunder god Thor/Thunor/Donar in that the Anglo-Saxon cemeteries have 'cremation' pots with the swastika on them indicating a dedication to Thunor.
		This god carries a club which is both an instrument of death (at the rough end) and an instrument of life (at the smooth end) in the same way that Thor's hammer was used both to kill (giants) and to bring back life (his goats on the journey to Utgard Loki).
		The iron nails and flints hammered into the gods image give the message 'this is no image of a mortal man, but a god of thunder with nature's most violent forces at his command'.

	Golden Bough Chapter 15. The Worship of the Oak.
		Perhaps the bronze gongs which kept up a humming in the wind round the sanctuary were meant to mimick the thunder that might so often be heard rolling and rumbling in the coombs of the stern and barren mountains which shut in the gloomy valley.
		Thus among the ancient Teutons, as among the Greeks and Italians, the god of the oak was also the god of the thunder.
		From the foregoing survey it appears that a god of the oak, the thunder, and the rain was worshipped of old by all the main branches of the Aryan stock in Europe, and was indeed the chief deity of their pantheon.
