Q3 How did Israel differ from other nations in matters involving warfare?(Deut.20:10-15,19,20;21:10-13)cl pp134-135,par.17)
Some answers,people were first given a choice,They did not kill indiscriminately."men of Israel's army were not allowed to rape women or engage in wanton slaughter"Try reading 1 Sam.15:3 and tell me that killing babies is not wanton slaughter also killing all animals.Deut.20:10-15 killing only males included male babies and the women are treated as property.

Just passing through. The topic caught my eye..
Given a choice. Stagnation, or death.
It was a very selective form of Genocide.
Off topic just a little...the Oral Review has become another parroting session. The WT answers circulate via email, everyone shows up with their printouts and reads a paragraph as an "answer."
A very selective form of Genocide in which the men killed the babies of other men and kept the women for their own pleasure.
How kind.
