Lighthouse : How do you reconcile these two verses :
Deuteronomy 20 -10:14 - "10 When you march up to attack a city, make its people an offer of peace. 11 If they accept and open their gates, all the people in it shall be subject to forced labor and shall work for you. 12 If they refuse to make peace and they engage you in battle, lay siege to that city. 13 When the Lord your God delivers it into your hand, put to the sword all the men in it. 14 As for the women, the children, the livestock and everything else in the city, you may take these as plunder for yourselves. And you may use the plunder the Lord your God gives you from your enemies. "
And : "Thou shall not kill".
Also , in the verse from Deuteronomy God seems to be advocating slavery.
