The offense isn’t that creative, but I think the green splash with Provisions adds a nice element. For the defense, I moved away from the dominant underdecking (Sorrow/Tiberius/VP) because of Widows of Joppa and the new Retribution soul. Abimelech is really nice, but I would like another artifact counter. Also, I was thinking about cutting Plot for a battle winner that more of my ECs could use.
Any advice would be appreciated.

With Abimelech and Shipwreck, Nazareth shouldn't be a problem. I will try that with DoN instead of Mayhem but Lampstand can be a problem.

With 5 black characters Apprehended might be a nice add, or swap for Haman's Plot, if you have trouble with bands. Also, I don't know how often you'll be able to use I Am Holy, and it seems a bit redundant with Urim and Thummim. I could see it being nice against smaller defenses but I don't know how well it would work against balanced defenses, especially in Type-1. If you find your not using I Am Holy you could cut it for a Captured Ark seeing as Nazareth won't be a problem.

You mean Abandonment right? Because Apprehended is gold.

Yeah, Abandonment is what I meant. Sounded right when I typed it.

If you keep I am Holy, I think you should add Wheel within a Wheel. I am Holy has so much more power when you have ways to recur the cards you're discarding. I would also drop Strong Angel for Jephthah.

Have you checked the REG?
Have you looked it up in ORCID?

Gideon has no SA, so why keep him in?

I don't think I need both Abandonment and Scattered. Maybe Seized by Rioters?

Done.

AUTO protects him from opponents and Abimelech needs him in the discard pile to work.
