The OT was written for a particular people and time, though is still credible as the interpreted word of GOD, prophetic, and pertinent to understanding the word of GOD as a whole. It states in particular cases where it was called for that entire cultures be wiped out.
From what I have learned thus far; any part of the bible that attests to literal physical killing of others and division of those faithful to God is added by man for his selfish intent, or wholly for times past. If one reads the three core scriptures of Christianity, Judaism, and Islam while taking special care to note the parts that are divisive, negative, and contradictory and promote physical murder of others then the general consensus of the three is easily deciphered.
Peace
Faith in selfless Unity for Good.
