what being apart from the law means.

Your hostility to the Word clearly shows. With your heart hardened against it, you will see only the surface letter of the Word. Because the inner spiritual significance of the Word remains closed to you, you blaspheme against it. The Word opens up when approached with humility and receptivity to the Spirit of Truth. It could do that for you if you let it.

I am not capable of approaching a scripture of senseless genocide with humility and an open heart.

The answer I gave you was two fold. The First you tried to covered (protecting the line of Christ.) the second you ignored. (To full fill the Promise He had made to the Jews, In that they would be come a great nation that would bring fourth the savior of the World.) How were they Jews to become a great nation if it's enmeys were not destroyed?

I think the more pertinent question is "why couldn't God find someplace for the Jews to become a great nation that didn't involve slaughtering thousands of their neighbors?" There were enormous parts of the world which were almost entirely uninhabited and remained so until a few centuries ago.

It wasn't in that billions of animals had died for the same reason. It was in that He was the last that needed to make such a sacrifice.

Equating children with animals?

Because the almighty creator of everything could not have possibly found a faster, more efficient way of doing that. I see no reason to even require a sacrifice. It's arbitrary and pointless. It's like, I wanna forgive you, but I can't do that until people die.

Ah, no. "Millions" died so Isreal could become a great nation. Which is nothing new. Every 'great nation' was made 'great' by the deaths of millions of those who opposed their growth.

I love how, on one hand, apologists will sequester God in the depths of metaphysics so that science can never examine (and disprove) his existence, but when this God influences the physical world, he can't do anything better than humans do. He can influence the Israelites to go psycho on their neighbors, but it is apparently far beyond his talents to convince these neighbors to ally and find common cause.

We are talking about one nation of people Slaughtering the indiginous people of a given land to make room for their people. Before you get even more self righteous, Try and name me a modern civialization who foundations were not built on this principle.

It's funny that you insist we can't judge God by human standards, yet here you are basically saying "well, we do it this way, why is it wrong for God to do it this way"? Once more, you are betraying the impotence (and pointlessness) of the God you worship. He can't do it any better than we do it ourselves.
