Question from Old friends
How can the supposed “Genocide” all throughout the Old Testament be explained? Is it truly Genocide? If not, what is it? If so, is that not cruel of God? For instance, note how many tribes there are mentioned in the OT, yet how many of these tribes survive today? And another example, when God instructed men to Circumcise a town and then while wounded go and decimate them all; Just as well, the destruction of the Canaanites. Is this “Genocide” ? Whats the reasoning behind these things?
