“Thou Shalt Not Murder.” So reads the sixth commandment."
Yet within days of receiving this commandment from the hand of God on Mount Sinai, Moses orders, in God’s name, the summary murder of 3,000 fellow Israelites.
In the Old Testament, God and the Chosen People were responsible for nearly 2,500,000 individual deaths and numerous instances of mass genocide.
Does it matter?
Is it relevant today?
Read this engrossing study as the author carefully and painstakingly documents every murder recorded in the Old Testament.
