Cruelty & Violence in the The Bible

If I had to pick a single reason for rejecting the Bible, it would be its cruelty.

It's not the cruelty and violence per se that bothers me; it's the biblical god's role in the cruel and violent acts. The God of the Bible ordered Saul to kill "man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass" in 1 Samuel 15.2-3. And the Bible contains hundreds of other cruel acts of God, any one of which, if true, would be enough for me to reject the Bible and its vicious God.

I also object to the pointless violence in the Bible, even when God doesn't seem to be directly involved. Judges 19, for example, is one of the most disgusting stories in all literature. If God was trying to communicate something in this chapter, I'd rather not know what it was.

Here is a video by Dan McClellan about God's cruelty and violence in the Bible.

    Genesis

  1. Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him. 4:8

    Because God liked Abel's animal sacrifice more than Cain's vegetables, Cain kills his brother Abel in a fit of religious jealousy.

  2. I will destroy ... both man and beast. 6:7, 17

    God is angry. He decides to destroy all humans, beasts, creeping things, fowls, and "all flesh wherein there is breath of life." He plans to drown them all.

  3. Every living substance that I have made will I destroy. 7:4

    God repeats his intention to kill every living thing. But why kill all the innocent animals? What did they do to deserve his wrath? It seems God never gets his fill of tormenting animals.

  4. All flesh died that moved upon the earth. 7:21-23

    God drowns everything that breathes air. From newborn babies to koala bears -- all creatures great and small, the Lord God drowned them all.

  5. The LORD plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai Abram's wife. 12:17

    God sends a plague on the Pharaoh and his household because the Pharaoh believed Abram's lie.

  6. God ... said unto him, Take me an heifer of three years old, and a she goat of three years old, and a ram of three years old, and a turtledove, and a young pigeon. 15:8-9

    God tells Abram to kill some animals for him. The needless slaughter makes God feel better.

  7. And when Sarai dealt hardly with her, she fled. 16:6

    Hagar conceives, making Sarai jealous. Abram tells Sarai to do to Hagar whatever she wants.

  8. I will not destroy it for ten's sake. 18:32

    I guess God couldn't find even ten good Sodomites because he decides to kill them all in Genesis 19. Too bad Abraham didn't ask God about the children. Why not save them? If Abraham could find 10 good children, toddlers, infants, or babies, would God spare the city? Apparently not. God doesn't give a damn about children.

  9. I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes. 19:7-8

    Lot refuses to give up his angels to the perverted mob, offering his two "virgin daughters" instead. He tells the bunch of angel rapers to "do unto them [his daughters] as is good in your eyes." This is the same man that is called "just" and "righteous" in 2 Peter 2:7-8

  10. And they smote the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great. 19:11

    The angels blind all of the men of Sodom.

  11. And they smote the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great. 19:11

    The angels blind all of the men of Sodom.

  12. The LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven. 19:24

    God kills everyone (men, women, children, infants, newborns) in Sodom and Gomorrah by raining "fire and brimstone from the Lord out of heaven." Well, almost everyone -- he spares the "just and righteous" Lot and his family.

  13. But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt. 19:26

    Lot's nameless wife looks back, and God turns her into a pillar of salt.

  14. God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and said to him, Behold, thou art but a dead man. 20:3

    God gets angry with king Abimelech, though the king hasn't even touched Sarah. He threatens to kill him and all of his people. To compensate for the crime he never committed, Abimelech gives Abraham sheep, oxen, slaves, silver, and land. Finally, after Abraham "prayed unto God," God lifts his punishment to Abimelech, "for the Lord had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah."

  15. Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, which she had born unto Abraham, mocking. Wherefore she said unto Abraham, Cast out this bondwoman and her son. 21:10-14

    Sarah, after giving birth to Isaac, gets angry again at Hagar (see 16:5-6) and tells Abraham to 'cast out this bondwoman and her son." God commands Abraham to "hearken unto her voice." So Abraham abandons Hagar and Ishmael, casting them out into the wilderness to die.

  16. God said unto Abraham ... in all that Sarah hath said unto thee, hearken unto her voice; for in Isaac shall thy seed be called. 21:12

    God tells Abraham to abandon Hagar and her son Ishmael to die in the desert. But God has chosen Isaac, not Ishmael, to be Abraham's "seed."

  17. Take now thy son ... and offer him there for a burnt offering. 22:2-13

    God orders Abraham to kill Isaac as a burnt offering. Abraham shows his love for God by his willingness to murder his son. But finally, just before Isaac's throat is slit, God provides a goat to kill instead.

  18. Abraham stretchedforth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son. 22:10

    Abraham shows his willingness to kill his son for God. Only an evil God would ask a father to do that; only a bad father would be willing to do it.

  19. Now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me. 22:12

    Abraham passed God's test. He was willing to kill his son for God.

    What kind of monster god would ask a father to kill his son for him - and then reward him for being willing to do so?

  20. By myself have I sworn, saith the LORD, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son ... I will bless thee. 22:16-17

    Why did God love Abraham so much? Because he was willing to murder his son for him. (Greater evil hath no man than this, that he is willing to kill his own son for God.)

    And why does God call Isaac Abraham's only son? Abraham's first son was Ishmael, whom Abraham abandoned with God's blessing. Then God commanded him to murder his second son. Christ! What a monster God!

  21. And his soul clave unto Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the damsel, and spake kindly unto the damsel. 34:1-31

    Dinah, the daughter of Jacob, is "defiled" by a man who seems to love her dearly. Her brothers trick all of the men of the town and kill them (after first having them all circumcised), and then take their wives and children captive.

  22. If ... every male of you be circumcised; Then will we give our daughters unto you, and we will take your daughters to us, and we will dwell with you, and we will become one people. 34:15

    The sons of Jacob say they will agree to inter-marriages if the men of Shechem get circumcised. The men of Shechem agree, then they are massacred while recovering from their circumcisions.

  23. The terror of God was upon the cities that were round about them. 35:5

  24. And Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the Lord; and the Lord slew him. 38:7

    What did Er do to elicit God's wrath? The Bible doesn't say. Maybe he picked up some sticks on Saturday.

  25. Onan ...spilled it on the ground ... And the thing which he did displeased the LORD: wherefore he slew him also. 38:8-10

    After God killed Er, Judah tells Onan to "go in unto thy brother's wife." But "Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and ... when he went in unto his brother's wife ... he spilled it on the ground.... And the thing which he did displeased the Lord; wherefore he slew him also." This lovely Bible story is seldom read in Sunday School, but it is the basis of many Christian doctrines, including the condemnation of both masturbation and birth control.

  26. Bring her forth, and let her be burnt. 38:24

    After Judah pays Tamar for her services, he is told that she "played the harlot" and "is with child by whoredom." When Judah hears this, he says, "Bring her forth, and let her be burnt."

  27. Within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thy head from off thee, and shall hang thee on a tree; and the birds shall eat thy flesh from off thee. 40:19

    Joseph interprets the baker's dream. He says that the pharaoh will cut off the baker's head, and hang his headless body on a tree for the birds to eat.

  28. He hanged the chief baker: as Joseph had interpreted to them. 40:22

    It all happened just as Joseph said it would. (40:16-19)

  29. "The famine was over all the face of the earth." 41:54-57

    God brought a seven year, "very grievous" famine on the whole earth for no apparent reason (except maybe to make Joseph wealthy).

    30. Exodus

  30. "Moses ... looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no man, he slew the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand. 2:11-12

    Moses murders an Egyptian after making sure that no one is looking.

  31. "I will ... smite Egypt with all my wonders." 3:20

  32. "If thou refuse to let him go, behold, I will slay thy son, even thy firstborn." 4:23

    God threatens to kill the Pharaoh's firstborn son.

  33. "The LORD met him [Moses], and sought to kill him." 4:24-26

    God decides to kill Moses because his son had not yet been circumcised. Luckily for Moses, his Egyptian wife Zipporah "took a sharp stone, and cut off the foreskin of her son, and cast it at his feet, and said, Surely a bloody husband art thou to me. So he [God] let him go." This story shows the importance of penises to God, and his hatred of foreskins.

  34. "Let us go, we pray thee, three days' journey into the desert, and sacrifice unto the LORD our God; lest he fall upon us with pestilence, or with the sword." 5:3

    Moses and Aaron ask the Pharaoh to let all the Israelites go into the desert to pray for three days, or else God will kill them all "with pestilence, or with the sword."

  35. "Then the LORD said unto Moses, Now shalt thou see what I will do to Pharaoh." 6:1

    God is going to kill and torment the Egyptians just to show everyone what he can do.

  36. "I will harden Pharaoh's heart ... Pharaoh shall not hearken unto you, that I may lay my hand upon Egypt, and bring forth mine armies ... And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD." 7:4

    God will make sure that Pharaoh does not listen to Moses, so that he can kill Egyptians with his armies.

  37. "And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD." 7:5

    Who else could be so cruel and unjust?

  38. "In this thou shalt know that I am the LORD: behold, I will smite with the rod that is in mine hand upon the waters which are in the river, and they shall be turned to blood." 7:17-24

    God tells Moses and Aaron to smite the river and turn it into blood. This is the first of the famous 10 plagues of Egypt.

  39. "All the cattle of Egypt died: but of the cattle of the children of Israel died not one." 9:6

    The fifth plague: all cattle in Egypt die.
    But a little later (9:19-20, 12:29), God kills them again a couple more times.

  40. "And it shall ... be a boil breaking forth with blains upon man, and upon beast, throughout all the land of Egypt." 9:9-12

    The sixth plague: boils and blains upon man and beast.

  41. "I will at this time send all my plagues upon thine heart, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people; that thou mayest know that there is none like me in all the earth." 9:14

    Who else but the biblical god could be so cruel?

  42. "For this cause have I raised thee up, for to shew in thee my power." 9:16

    God made the Pharaoh king so that God could show off his power.

  43. "And the hail smote throughout the land of Egypt all that was in the field, both man and beast." 9:22-25

    The seventh plague is hail.

  44. "And that thou mayest tell in the ears of thy son, and of thy son's son, what things I have wrought in Egypt." 10:2

    God wants to be remembered forever for the mass murder of little children.

  45. "About midnight will I go out into the midst of Egypt: And all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die." 11:4-6

    These verses clearly show that the mass murder of innocent children by God was premeditated. (see 12:29-30)

  46. "All the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die ... that ye may know how the LORD doth put a difference between the Egyptians and Israel." 11:7

    God will kill every firstborn Egyptian child to show that he likes Israelites more than Egyptians.

  47. "I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast." 12:12

    God explains to Moses that he intends to kill every Egyptian fristborn man and beast.

  48. "When your children shall say unto you, What mean ye by this service? That ye shall say, It is the sacrifice of the LORD's passover, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he smote the Egyptians, and delivered our houses." 12:26-26

    When your children ask you, "Why do we celebrate the passover," tell them, "Because God passed over our houses when he was killing Egyptians and didn't kill any of us."

  49. "At midnight the LORD smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt ... and there was a great cry in Egypt; for there was not a house where there was not one dead." 12:29-30

    After God has sufficiently hardened the Pharaoh's heart, he kills all the firstborn Egyptian children. When he was finished "there was not a house where there was not one dead." Finally, he runs out of little babies to kill, so he slaughters the firstborn cattle, too.

  50. "Sanctify unto me all the firstborn, whatsoever openeth the womb among the children of Israel, both of man and of beast: it is mine." 13:2, 12, 15

    To commemorate the divine massacre of the Egyptian children, Moses instructs the Israelites to "sacrifice to the Lord all that openeth the matrix" -- all the males, that is. God has no use for dead, burnt female bodies.

  51. "I will harden Pharaoh's heart." 14:4

  52. "The LORD overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea., And ... there remained not so much as one of them." 14:4-28

    After hardening Pharaoh's heart a few more times, God drowns Pharaoh's army in the sea.

  53. The LORD shall fight for you. 14:14

  54. "I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall follow them: and I will get me honour." 14:17

  55. "And the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I have gotten me honour upon Pharaoh, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen." 14:18

  56. "And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand over the sea, that the waters may come again upon the Egyptians." 14:26

    God drowned the Egyptian army by having Moses hold out his hand over the sea.

  57. "I will sing unto the LORD ... the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea." 15:1-19

    Moses and the people sing praises to their murderous god.

  58. "The Lord is a man of war." Indeed, judging from his acts in the Old Testament, he is a vicious warlike monster. 15:3

  59. "Thy right hand, O LORD, hath dashed in pieces the enemy." 15:6

    God's right hand dashes people in pieces.

  60. "For the horse of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and the LORD brought again the waters of the sea upon them." 15:19

  61. "Horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea." 15:21

  62. "If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD ... I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians." 15:26

    If you do what God says, he won't send his diseases on you (like he did to the Egyptians). But otherwise....

  63. "Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword." 17:13

    Joshua, with God's approval, kills the Amalekites "with the edge of the sword."

  64. "I will utterly put out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven." 17:14

    God says he will commit complete genocide on the Amalekites.

  65. "The Lord has sworn that the Lord will have war with Amalek from generation to generation." 17:14-16

    God swears that he is still fighting Amalek. I hope Moses can still keep his hand up.

  66. "Whosoever toucheth the mount shall be surely put to death ... he shall surely be stoned, or shot through; whether it be beast or man." 19:12-13

    Any person or animal that touches Mt. Sinai shall be stoned to death or "shot through." Did Moses impose such severe penalties because he feared that someone might see him fake his meeting with God?

  67. "Thou shalt ... sacrifice ... burnt offerings." 20:24

    God gives instructions for killing and burning animals. He says that if we will make such "burnt offerings," he will bless us for it. What kind of mind would be pleased by the killing and burning of innocent animals?

  68. "If thou buy an Hebrew servant...." 21:2-6

    God sets down the rules regarding Hebrew slaves. You can buy one, but you must set him free on the seventh year. But if you have "given" him a wife and she bears children, then you get to keep the wife and kids. If he refuses to leave his family when his seven years are up, then bore a hole through his ear and keep him forever. (That sounds fair!)

  69. "His master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and he shall serve him for ever." 21:6

    If a Hebrew slave refuses to leave his family after his seven years are up, his master will drill a hole through his ear and he will serve his master as a slave forever.

  70. "He that smiteth his father, or his mother, shall be surely put to death." 21:15

    A child who strikes his parents must be executed.

  71. "He that curseth his father, or his mother, shall surely be put to death." 21:17

    A child that curses his parents must be executed.

  72. "If a man smite his servant, or his maid, with a rod, and ... if he continue a day or two, he shall not be punished: for he is his money." 21:20-21

    It's OK with God if you slowly beat your slaves to death. After all, they are your money.

  73. "Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, Burning for burning, wound for wound, stripe for stripe. 21:2-25

    An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.

  74. "If a man smite the eye of his servant, or the eye of his maid, that it perish; he shall let him go free for his eye's sake." 21:26-27

    It's okay to beat your slaves; even if they die you won't be punished, just as long as they survive a day or two after the beating (see verses 21:20-21). But avoid excessive damage to their eyes or teeth. Otherwise you may have to set them free.

  75. "If an ox gore a man or a woman, that they die: then the ox shall be surely stoned." 21:28

    If an ox gores someone, "then the ox shall surely be stoned."

  76. "The ox shall be stoned, and his owner also shall be put to death." 21:29

    If an ox gores someone due to the negligence of its owner, then "the ox shall be stoned, and his owner shall be put to death.".

  77. "If the ox shall push a manservant or a maidservant; he shall give unto their master thirty shekels of silver, and the ox shall be stoned." 21:32

    If an ox gores a slave, the owner of the ox must pay the owner of the slave 30 shekels of silver, and "the ox shall be stoned."

  78. "Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live." 22:18

    Thousands of innocent women have suffered excruciating deaths because of this verse.

  79. "Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death." 22:19

    "Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death." Is it really necessary to kill such people? Couldn't we just send them to counseling or something?

  80. "He who sacrificeth unto any god, save unto the Lord only, he shall be utterly destroyed." 22:20

    If this commandment were obeyed, then the four or five billion people who do not believe in the biblical god would be killed.

  81. "My wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless." 22:24

    If you make God angry enough, he will kill you and your family with his own sword.

  82. "The firstborn of thy sons thou shalt give unto me." 22:29

    As a burnt offering?

  83. "I will send my fear before thee, and will destroy all the people." 23:27

    God promises to "send his fear before the Israelites" and to kill everyone that they encounter when they enter the promised land.

  84. "I will send hornets before thee." 23:28

    God has hornets that bite and kill people.

  85. "And Moses took the blood, and sprinkled it on the people." 24:5-8

    Moses has some animals killed and their dead bodies burned for God. Then he sprinkles their blood on the altar and on the people. This makes God happy.

  86. "Thou shalt kill the bullock before the LORD." 29:11-37

    Get some animals, kill them, chop up their bodies, wave body parts in the air, burn the carcasses, and sprinkle the blood all around -- in precisely the way God tells you.

  87. "Take of the ram the fat and the rump, and the fat that covereth the inwards, and the caul above the liver, and the two kidneys, and the fat that is upon them, and the right shoulder ... and shalt wave them for a wave offering before the LORD." 29:22-24

    God tells Aaron and his sons to take the rump, fat, caul, kidneys, and right shoulder of the ram and add a loaf of bread or two, and a wafer of unleavened bread. Then they put the whole mess in the hands of Aaron and his sons and they wave them before the Lord. This is a wave offering.

  88. "Thou shalt offer every day a bullock for a sin offering for atonement." 29:36-39

    Have you killed and offered your bullock for a sin offering today? How about the two lambs you are supposed to offer each day?

  89. "Ye shall keep the sabbath ... every one that defileth it shall surely be put to death." 31:14

    Those who break the Sabbath are to be executed.

  90. "Let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot against them, and that I may consume them: and I will make of thee a great nation." 32:10

    When God sees the people dancing naked around Aaron's golden calf, he gets so angry that he wants to kill everyone - except for Moses, of course, from whom he will make a great nation. So he plans to kill all the Israelites and replace them with Moses's offspring.

  91. "He [Aaron] took the calf which they had made, and burnt it in the fire, and ground it to powder, and strawed it upon the water, and made the children of Israel drink of it." 32:20

    Moses burned the golden calf, ground it into powder, and then forced it down the throats of all the people.

  92. "Who is on the LORD's side?" 32:27-28

    God orders the sons of Levi (Moses, Aaron, and the other members of their tribe that were "on the Lord's side") to kill their familiy and friends. "And there fell of the people that day about 3000 men."

  93. "Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book." 32:33

  94. "And the LORD plagued the people, because they made the calf, which Aaron made." 32:35p>

    But God wasn't satisfied with the slaughter of the 3000, so he killed some more people with a plague.

  95. "All the firstborn of thy sons thou shalt redeem." 34:20

    If a father doesn't redeem his firstborn son, must he break his neck as he must do with a donkey?

  96. "The firstling of an ass thou shalt redeem with a lamb: and if thou redeem him not, then shalt thou break his neck." 34:20

  97. "Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day there shall be to you an holy day, a sabbath of rest to the LORD: whosoever doeth work therein shall be put to death." 35:2-3

    Whoever works, or even kindles a fire, on the Sabbath "shall be put to death."

    98. Leviticus

  98. If you refuse to kill someone who gives his seed to Molech, God set his face against you and your family. 20:4-5

  99. "If any man of you bring an offering unto the LORD...." Chapters 1 - 9

    God gives detailed instructions for performing ritualistic animal sacrifices. These bloody rituals must be important to God, judging from the number of times that he repeats their instructions. Indeed the entire first nine chapters of Leviticus can be summarized as follows: Get an animal, kill it, sprinkle the blood around, cut the dead animal into pieces, and burn it for a "sweet savor unto the Lord."

  100. The meat offering 2:1-16

  101. "He shall lay his hand upon the head of his offering, and kill it ... and Aaron's sons the priests shall sprinkle the blood upon the altar round about." 3:2, 3:8, 3:13

  104. The offering for a ruler who sins through ignorance: A young unblemished male goat 4:22-25

  105. The offering for a common person who sins through ignorance: A young unblemished female sheep or goat 4:27-35

  106. "He shall bring his trespass offering unto the LORD ... a female from the flock, a lamb or a kid of the goats." 5:6

    If you touch an insect, dead animal, or "the uncleanness of man" or if you swear to do something good or bad (5:2-4), kill a female lamb or goat for God. (A female will do since it's a minor offense.)

  107. "If he be not able to bring a lamb, then he shall bring ... two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, unto the LORD ... and wring off his head." 5:7

    If you don't have a lamb to kill for God, then you can wring off the head of a pigeon or dove.

  108. "And he shall sprinkle of the blood of the sin offering upon the side of the altar; and the rest of the blood shall be wrung out at the bottom of the altar: it is a sin offering." 5:9

  109. "If a soul commit a trespass, and sin through ignorance...." 5:14-15

    If you sin without knowing that you've done anything wrong, kill an unblemished ram for God.

  110. And he shall bring his trespass offering unto the LORD, a ram without blemish out of the flock." 6:6

    After returning something stolen to its owner, the guilty party must sacrifice an unblemished ram as a tresspass offering to God. That will make everything okay.

  111. The burnt offering 6:8-13

  112. The meat offering 6:14-18

  113. "This is the law of the sin offering: the sin offering [shall] be killed before the LORD: it is most holy." 6:25

  114. "This is the law of the trespass offering: it is most holy." 7:1-6

    The holy law of trespass offering: Find an animal; kill it; sprinkle the blood around; offer God the fat, rump, kidneys, and caul; burn and eat it in the holy place, for "it is most holy."

  115. "Kill the trespass offering: and the blood thereof shall he sprinkle round about upon the altar." 7:2

  116. "It shall be the priest's that sprinkleth the blood of the peace offerings." 7:11-14

    The law of peace offerings requires a priest to sprinkle blood around.

  117. The fat with the breast shall be waved for a wave offering before the Lord. 7:30

    God wants us to kill lots of animals for him. Not just any animals, though. God only wants male animals without any blemishes. Don't kill any blind, broken, maimed, or scabbed, or female animials for him.

  188. "Ye shall offer that day ... an he lamb without blemish...." 23:12-14, 18

  189. "Whatsoever soul it be that doeth any work in that same day, the same soul will I destroy from among his people." 23:29-30

And ye shall take them as an inheritance for your children after you, to inherit them for a possession; they shall be your bondmen for ever" 25:44-46

  201. "I will set my face against you, and ye shall be slain before your enemies." 26:17

  202. "I will bring seven times more plagues upon you according to your sins." 26:21

    God has already promised to send plagues that will consume our eyes and feed our children to our enemies. And if we won't obey him after that, he'll bring seven more plagues on us.

  232. "Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married." 12:1, 9-10

    Miriam and Aaron (Moses' brother and sister) criticize Moses for marrying an Ethiopian woman and thus breaking the law of God.

  233. "Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married." 12:1, 9-10

    Miriam and Aaron (Moses' brother and sister) criticize Moses for marrying an Ethiopian woman and thus breaking the law of God. But God makes it clear that his rules don't apply to his favorites, and he strikes Miriam with leprosy. Notice that only Miriam is punished, though both she and Aaron complained. 

  234. "I will smite them with the pestilence, and disinherit them, and will make of thee a greater nation and mightier than they." 14:12

    God tells Moses that he is going to kill all of the Israelites -- every last whining one of the them, and then make a whole bunch of brand new Israelites.

  235. "The LORD is longsuffering, and of great mercy, forgiving iniquity and transgression, and by no means clearing the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation." 14:18

    God punishes the children for the failings of their great-great grandfathers.

  236. "They shall not see the land which I sware unto their fathers." 14:20-35

    So Moses talked God out of killing everyone. He'll just see to it that no one over 20 years old survives the trip to Israel. Their "carcases shall fall in the wilderness."

    God gives more instructions for the ritualistic killing of animals. The smell of burning flesh is "a sweet savour unto the Lord." (This phrase is used six times in this chapter.)

  240. "And the LORD said unto Moses, The man shall be surely put to death: all the congregation shall stone him with stones." 15:32-36

    The Israelites find a man picking up sticks on the sabbath. God commands them to kill him by throwing rocks at him.

  241. "Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment." 16:20-21

    God warns everyone to get away; he's going to kill some more people.

  242. "Hereby ye shall know that the LORD hath sent me ... if the LORD make ... the earth open her mouth, and swallow them up, with all that appertain unto them, and they go down quick into the pit..." 16:28-30

    Moses tells the people that if the ground opens up and swallows the rebels and their families, then you'll know that God's on his side.

  243. "The earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah ... They ... went down alive into the pit, and the earth closed upon them." 16:31-33

  244. "And there came out a fire from the LORD, and consumed the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense." 16:35

  245. "Ye have killed the people of the LORD." 16:41-50

    After God killed Korah, his family, and 250 innocent bystanders, the people complained saying, "ye have killed the people of the Lord." So God, who doesn't take kindly to criticism, sends a plague on the people. And "they that died in the plague were 14,700."

  246. "Get you up from among this congregation, that I may consume them as in a moment." 16:44-45

    God threatens (again) to kill everyone (but his special friends, Moses and Aaron).

  249. "Thou shalt quite take away their murmurings from me, that they die not." 17:10

    God threatens to kill those who murmur.

  250. "Shall we be consumed with dying?" 17:12-13

    God threatens to kill those who murmur. To which the people reply, "Behold, we die, we perish, we all perish .... Shall we be consumed with dying?"

  251. "They shall not come nigh the vessels of the sanctuary and the altar, that neither they, nor ye also, die." 18:3

    Stay away from holy things and places -- like churches. God might have to kill you if you get too close.

  252. "The stranger that cometh nigh shall be put to death." 18:7

  253. "Thou shalt sprinkle their blood upon the altar, and shalt burn their fat for an offering made by fire, for a sweet savour unto the LORD ... by a statute for ever: it is a covenant of salt for ever before the LORD." 18:17-19

    God describes once again the procedure for ritualistic animal sacrifices. such rituals must be extremely important to God, since he makes their performance a "statute" and "covenant" forever. Why, then don't Bible-believers perform these sacrifices anymore? Don't they realize how God must miss the "sweet savour" of burning flesh? Don't they believe God when he says "forever"?

  254. "Neither must the children of Israel henceforth come nigh the tabernacle of the congregation, lest they bear sin, and die." 18:22

  425. The Israelite spies killed everyone in Bethel, except for the man (and his family) who showed them how to enter the city. 1:25

  426. "The children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD: and the LORD strengthened Eglon the king of Moab against Israel ... So the children of Israel served Eglon the king of Moab eighteen years." 3:12-14

  427. Ehud delivers a "message from God" to the king of Moab. God's message consists of a knife thrust so deeply into the king's belly that it could not be extracted, "and the dirt came out." Just another lovely Bible story. 3:15-22

  428. God "delivers" more folks into the hands of his chosen people. "And they slew of Moab ... about 10,000 men ... and their escaped not a man." 3:28-29

  429. Shamgar kills 600 Philistines with an ox goad. Praise God. 3:31

  430. "The Lord shall sell Sisera into the hand of a woman." 4:9

  431. "The Lord discomfited Sisera ... with the edge of the sword ... and there was not a man left." 4:15-16

  432. Jael (our heroine) offers food and shelter to a traveler (Sisera, Jabin's captain), saying "turn in my Lord ... fear not." Then after giving him a glass of milk and tucking him in, she drives a tent stake through his head. "So God subdued on that day Jabin." 4:17-23

  433. For murdering her guest while he slept, Jael is "blessed above women." (Hail Jael, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women....?) 5:24-26

  434. "So let all thine enemies perish, O Lord." (Let them all have their temples pierced by blessed women.) 5:31

  435. "The children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD: and the LORD delivered them into the hand of Midian seven years."
    God forces the Israelites to be slaves to the Midianites for seven years. 6:1

  436. "The LORD said unto him, Surely I will be with thee, and thou shalt smite the Midianites as one man." God promises to help Gideon kill all the Midianites. 6:16

  437. "The second bullock was offered upon the altar." 6:28

  438. Two princes are killed and their heads are brought to Gideon. 7:25

  439. For refusing to feed him and his army, Gideon swears that he'll tear the flesh off the elders of Succoth. (And he carries out his threat in verse 16.) 8:7

  440. When Gideon and his water-lapping companions blow their trumpets, God forces all the enemy soldiers to kill each other, killing 120,000. 7:22, 8:10

  441. "He took the elders of the city, and thorns of the wilderness and briers, and with them he taught the men of Succoth." 8:16

  442. "He beat down the tower of Penuel, and slew the men of the city." 8:17

  443. Gideon orders his son to kill two kings, but he refuses. So Gideon has to do it himself since his son isn't "man" enough to do it. 8:20-21

  444. The curse of Jotham: "Let fire come out from Abimelech, and devour the men of Shechem." (See 9:57) 9:20

  445. God sends evil spirits that cause humans to deal treacherously with each other. 9:23-24

  446. "And all the evil of the men of Shechem did God render upon their heads: and upon them came the curse of Jotham the son of Jerubbaal."
    God had one thousand men and women burned to death to punish them for supporting Abimelech rather than Jotham. 9:57

  447. "God ... delivered Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they smote them: so Israel possessed all the land of the Amorites." 11:21

  448. "Whomsoever the LORD our God shall drive out from before us, them will we [the Israelites] possess." 11:24

  449. When "the spirit of the Lord" comes upon Jephthah, he makes a deal with God: If God will help him kill the Ammonites, then he (Jephthah) will offer to God as a burnt offering whatever comes out of his house to greet him. God keeps his end of the deal by providing Jephthah with "a very great slaughter." But when Jephthah returns, his nameless daughter comes out to greet him (who'd he expect, his wife?). Well, a deal's a deal, so he delivers her to God as a burnt offering -- after letting her spend a couple of months going up and down on the mountains bewailing her virginity. 11:29-39

  450. "The LORD delivered them into his hands ... And he smote them ... even twenty cities ... with a very great slaughter." 11:32-33

  451. "Her father ... did with her according to his vow which he had vowed." 11:39

  452. 42,000 Ephraimites fail the "shibboleth" test and are killed by Jephthah's army. 12:6

  453. "Manoah took a kid with a meat offering, and offered it upon a rock unto the LORD." 13:19

  454. Samson's lust for the Philistine woman was "of the Lord." It was all a part of God's plan for killing Philistines. 14:4

  455. Samson rips up a young lion when "the spirit of the Lord came mightily upon him." Later, when going to "take" his Philistine wife he notices a swarm of bees and honey in the lion's carcass (a Divine miracle -- or just rotting flesh, flies, and maggots?). 14:5-8

  456. "And the Spirit of the LORD came upon him, and he went down to Ashkelon, and slew thirty men ... and gave change of garments unto them which expounded the riddle."
    When the Spirit of the Lord came upon Samson, he killed 30 men at random and took their clothes and gave it to the guys at the party as a prize for guessing his riddle.
    (Samson might have been a decent person if he could have kept the spirit of the Lord off him.) 14:19

  457. Samson catches 300 foxes, ties their tails together, and sets them on fire; the Philistines burn Samson's ex-wife and father-in-law; and Samson smites them "hip and thigh with a great slaughter." 15:4-8

  458. "The spirit of the Lord came mightily upon" Samson and "he found a new jawbone of an ass ... and took it, and slew 1000 men therewith." 15:14-15

  459. Samson, with God's help, kills himself and 3000 Philistine men and women by causing a roof to collapse, setting an example for Bible-based terrorism. 16:27-30

  460. The Massacre of the Peaceful, Unsuspecting People
    The story begins with the tribe of Dan (one of the 12 tribes of Israel) looking for a nice place to live. So they sent out five men to find some land. 18:1-27

  461. After taking in a traveling Levite, the host offers his virgin daughter and his guest's concubine to a mob of perverts (who want to have sex with his guest). The mob refuses the daughter, but accepts the concubine and they "abuse her all night." The next morning she crawls back to the doorstep and dies. The Levite puts her dead body on an ass and takes her home. Then he chops her body up into twelve pieces and sends them to each of the twelve tribes of Israel. 19:22-30

  462. "I took my concubine, and cut her in pieces, and sent her throughout all the country."
    The Levite tells everyone his story (leaving out the part about how he gave his concubine to the mob to do with as they pleased), explaining the mysterious rotting body part messages that brought everyone in Israel together. 20:4-6

  463. After the Benjamites refuse to turn over the men from Gibeah (the town that wanted to have sex with the Levite but settled for his concubine instead), the Israelites asked God which tribe should go to war with them. God said the tribe of Judah should go first. So Judah goes to war, but the Benjamites with their sharp shooting lefties kill 22,000 Israelites. 20:18-21

  464. After 22,000 Israelites were killed by the Benjamites, they cry all day before the Lord. Then they ask God (again) if they should go to war against Benjamin. God said yes, so they try it again, and another 18,000 Israelites are killed. 20:23-25

  465. Once again all of the Israelites sit and weep before God, and ask again (for the third time) if they should attack the Benjamites. God give them his usual answer: Attack. This time he promises (he was just kidding the last couple times) that he "will deliver them into thine hand." 20:26-28

  466. God helps the Israelites kill 25,100 Benjamites. 20:35

  467. The Israelites killed everyone in the city with the edge of the sword. 20:37

  468. Another 25,000 Benjamites are killed by the God-assisted Israelites. 20:44-46

  469. The Israelites finish their massacre of the Benjamites by killing all the men, animals, and everything they could find in every Benjamite city. Then they burned the cities to the ground. (In this way God helped the Israelites make everything better after the rape and dismemberment of the concubine.) 20:48

  470. Here's what the Israelites decide to do. They will go and kill everyone in Jabeshgilead except for the virgin women and give them to the 600 surviving Benjamites. 21:11

    471. 1 Samuel

  471. "So David ... fought with the Philistines ... and smote them with a great slaughter." 23:5

  472. "The Lord killeth" -- every chance he gets. 2:6, 25

  473. "The adversaries of the Lord shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven shall he thunder upon them." If God doesn't like you, he'll send a thunderstorm your way to break your body into little pieces. 2:10

  474. "Because the LORD would slay them." Eli's sons didn't listen to him, because God had already decided to kill them. (Which he does in 4:11.) 2:25

  475. "A man of God unto Eli, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD ... I will cut off thine arm... There shall not be an old man in thine house for ever ... I shall ... consume thine eyes and ... grieve thine heart."
    A "man of God" tells Eli that God will "consume his eyes" and "grieve his heart" and make sure that all of his decendants will die young" because of the stuff his sons did. 2:27-32

  476. "And this shall be a sign unto thee, that shall come upon thy two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas; in one day they shall die both of them."
    God says he'll kill his two sons as a sign to him. (Just ot remind him of the nasty things he plans to do to him and his descendants to punish him for what his sons did.) 2:34

  477. God will punish Eli's descendants forever for the sins of Eli's sons. 3:12-13

  478. "The two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were slain."
    God killed Eli's sons as he promised to do. (See 2:25 and 34) 4:11

  479. God smites the people of Ashdod with hemorrhoids "in their secret parts." 5:6-12

  480. God kills 50,070 men for looking into the ark. "And the people lamented, because the Lord had smitten many of the people with a great slaughter." 6:19

  481. "And Samuel took a sucking lamb, and offered it for a burnt offering wholly unto the LORD." 7:9

  482. The LORD thundered with a great thunder on that day upon the Philistines, and discomfited them; and they were smitten before Israel." 7:10-11

  483. "And the spirit of God came upon Saul ... and he took a yoke of oxen, and hewed them in pieces, and sent them throughout all the coast of Israel." People do the darnedest things when the spirit of God comes upon them! 11:6-7

  484. "Saul ... slew the Ammorites unto the heat of the day." Then he took a little break. After all, killing is hard work. 11:11

  485. To day the LORD hath wrought salvation in Israel."
    God saved the Israelites by slaughtering the Ammonites. 11:13

  486. "Saul said, Bring hither a burnt offering to me, and peace offerings. And he offered the burnt offering." 13:9

  487. God delivers the Philistines into Jonathan's hand. And his very "first slaughter ... was about twenty men." Not bad for a first slaughter. 14:12

  488. Under God's influence, the Philistines killed each other. 14:20

  489. "So the LORD saved Israel that day."
    God saved Israel by forcing Philistines to kill each other. 14:23

  490. But later, Saul and his army kill all of those who had not already been killed. 14:36

  491. God orders Saul to kill all of the Amalekites: men, women, infants, sucklings, ox, sheep, camels, and asses. Why? Because God remembers what Amalek did hundreds of years ago. 15:2-3

  492. Saul killed everyone but Agag (the king) and the best of the animals. But still God was furious with Saul for not killing everything as he had been told to do. He said, "it repenteth me that I have set Saul up to be king." 15:7-26

  493. Saul is rebuked by Samuel for "doing evil in the sight of the Lord" by failing to kill all of the Amalekites. 15:18-19

  494. Because Saul didn't kill everyone as God commanded, God changes his mind about him being king. 15:23-26

  495. To please God, Samuel hacks Agag in pieces "before the Lord" [I bet God enjoyed that!] -- after Agag pleads with him saying, "surely the bitterness of death has past." 15:32-34

  496. After God rejects Saul for refusing to kill indiscriminately, he sends Samuel to find another king. David is chosen and anointed by Samuel, and "the spirit of the Lord came upon him from that day forward." 16:13

  497. "But the spirit of the Lord departed from Saul [since he was not murderous enough for God], and an evil spirit from the Lord troubled him." But if God is good, then how could he have an evil spirit? 16:14-16, 23

  498. David kills Goliath with his sling, beheads him, and carries the head back to Jerusalem. 17:51-57

  499. David kills 200 Philistines and brings their foreskins to Saul to buy his first wife (Saul's daughter Michal). Saul had only asked for 100 foreskins, but David was feeling generous. 18:25-27

  500. "David went out, and fought with the Philistines, and slew them with a great slaughter." 19:8

  501. God will wipe all of David's enemies off the face of the earth. 20:15-16

  502. Saul kills 85 priests of Nob and all men, women, children, and animals in the city of Nob. 22:18-19

  503. "David inquired of the Lord, saying, Shall I go and smite these Philistines? And the Lord said unto David, Go, and smite the Philistines." 23:2

  504. "Then David enquired of the LORD yet again. And the LORD answered him and said ... I will deliver the Philistines into thine hand." 23:4

  505. "If I leave ... any that pisseth against the wall."
    David vows to will kill Nabal and all his men (or as he put it, "any that pisseth against the wall".) 25:22

  506. "Except thou hadst hasted and come to meet me, surely there had not been left unto Nabal by the morning light any that pisseth against the wall."
    If Abigail hadn't come and paid him off, David would have killed Nabal and any of his people "that pisseth against the wall". 25:34

  507. "And it came to pass about ten days after, that the Lord smote Nabal, that he died." This was convenient for David who then took his property and his wife, Abigail. 25:38

  508. "When David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, Blessed be the LORD ... And David sent and communed with Abigail, to take her to him to wife." 25:39

  509. "And David smote the land and left neither man nor woman alive." (No wonder God liked David so much!) 27:8-11

  510. Saul visits a woman with a "familiar spirit" and she brings Samuel back from the dead. Samuel once again explains that God is angry at Saul for not killing all of the Amalekites. He says God is going to deliver all of Israel into the hands of the Philistines. (Since Saul refused to slaughter innocent people, God will slaughter the Israelites. Fair is fair.) 28:8-19

  511. "Because thou obeyedst not the voice of the LORD, nor executedst his fierce wrath upon Amalek, therefore hath the LORD done this thing unto thee this day." 28:18

  512. "The LORD will also deliver Israel with thee into the hand of the Philistines: and to morrow shalt thou and thy sons be with me."
    God sent a message to Saul (through a dead man brought back to life by a witch) was that tomorrow God would make sure that the Philistines kill him and his sons (to punish Saul for not killing all the Amalekites like God told him to in 15:3). 28:19

  513. David and Saul have a contest to see who can kill the most people for God, and the women act as cheerleaders saying, "Saul has killed his thousands, and David his tens of thousands." 18:6-7, 21:11, 29:5

  514. The Philistine leaders didn't trust David, even though David had committed many genocides for them. They had heard about how the Israelite dancing girls used to sing about David's killings, singing, "Saul has killed his thousands, and David his tens of thousands." So they worried that David could not be trusted to kill his own people. But they were wrong about that. David was always willing to kill anyone at anytime for any reason whatsoever. That's why God loved him so much. 29:5

  515. "David said unto Achish, But what have I done ... that I may not go fight against the enemies of my lord the king?"
    David was disappointed. He wanted to go kill Israelites with the Philistines. 29:8

  516. "David smote them from the twilight even unto the evening of the next day: and there escaped not a man of them, save four hundred young men."
    David spends the day killing more of those pesky Amalekites. He kills all of them except for 400 that escaped on camels. (See 15:7-8 and 27:8-9 for the last two times they were exterminated.) 30:17

  517. "Now the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in mount Gilboa."
    God used the Philistines to kill the Israelite soldiers to punish Saul for not killing all the Amalekites. (See 28:19) 31:1

  518. "The Philistines slew Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Melchishua, Saul's sons."
    God had the Philistines kill Saul's sons to punish him for not killing all the Amalekites. See 28:19) 31:2

  519. "So Saul died, and his three sons, and his armourbearer, and all his men, that same day together." 31:6

  520. They cut off his head ... and sent into the land of the Philistines round about ... and they fastened his body to the wall of Bethshan." Was this a part of Saul's punishment for not killing all the Amalekites? 31:9-10

    521. 2 Samuel

  521. David tells one of his "young men" to kill the Amalekite messenger who claimed to have mercifully killed Saul at Saul's own request. 1:15

  522. Joab and Abner watch as the young men "play" a cruel game. "And they caught every one his fellow by the head, and thrust his sword in his fellow side, so they fell down together." 2:14

  523. Abner smites Asahel "under the fifth rib." (It seems that in 2 Samuel this is the preferred place to get smitten. 3:27, 4:6, 20:10) 2:23

  524. When Joab (David's captain) kills Abner (by smiting him under the fifth rib of course), David says that he and his kingdom are not responsible. The blame, he says, lays with Joab. So David curses Joab, his family, and their descendants forever. Let them all be plagued with venereal diseases and leprosy, starve to death, commit suicide, or lean on staves. (The Revised Standard Version translates "leaneth on a staff" as "holds a spindle," apparently meaning effeminate -- real men don't spin or weave.) 3:27-29

  525. Some of David's men kill Saul's son (by smiting him under the fifth rib, of course) and bring his head to David, thinking that he'll be pleased. But he wasn't. David has the assassins killed, their hands and feet chopped off, and their bodies hung up (for decorations?) over the pool in Hebron. 4:6-7

  526. Whoever kills the lame and the blind will be David's "chief and captain." 5:8

  527. "David ... grew great, and the LORD God of hosts was with him." 5:10

  528. David asks God if he should kill some more Philistines. God says yes, and he'll even help. So David and God "smote the Philistines" again. 5:19

  529. "David smote them there, and said, The LORD hath broken forth upon mine enemies before me."
    God helps David slaughter his enemies. 5:20

  530. "When thou hearest the sound of a going in the tops of the mulberry trees ... then shall the LORD go out before thee, to smite the host of the Philistines." 5:24

  531. "And David did so, as the LORD had commanded him; and smote the Philistines." 5:25

  532. Uzzah tries to keep the ark from falling off the cart, and God kills him for it. I guess it was God's way of saying Thanks. 6:6-7

  533. "I was with thee whithersoever thou wentest, and have cut off all thine enemies out of thy sight."
    God was with David wherever he went and killed all of his enemies for him. 7:9

  534. David kills two thirds of the Moabites and makes the rest slaves. He also cripples the captured horses. 8:2-4

  535. "David slew of the Syrians two and twenty thousand men ... and the Lord preserved David withersoever he went." 8:5-6, 14

  536. "David gat him a name when he returned from smiting of the Syrians in the valley of salt, being eighteen thousand men ... And the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went." 8:13-14

  537. David tells Joab (his captain) to send Bathsheba's husband (Uriah) to "the forefront of the hottest battle ... that he may be smitten and die." In this way, David gets another wife. 11:15, 11:17-27

  538. To punish David for having Uriah killed, God kills Bathsheba's baby boy. 12:14-18

  539. "He ... put them under saws, and under harrows of iron, and under axes of iron, and made them pass through the brick-kiln."
    David tortured or enslaved (depending on translation) all the inhabitants of several cities. 12:31

  540. Absalom has his servants kill his brother for raping his sister. (This chapter, which includes incest, rape, murder, should be rated NC-17.) 13:28-29

  541. "There was there a great slaughter that day of twenty thousand men ... and the wood devoured more people that day than the sword devoured."
    It must have been a really spooky forest to have devoured more than 20,000 men! 18:7-8

  542. Poor Absalom gets his head caught in an oak tree, and before he can get free, Joab thrusts three darts through his heart. 18:14

  543. "Then said Ahimaaz ... Let me now run, and bear the king tidings, how that the LORD hath avenged him of his enemies." (See 2 Samuel 17:14) 18:19

  544. Amasa is viciously slaughtered by Joab, who "shed out his bowels to the ground ... And Amasa wallowed in blood in the midst of the highway." 20:10, 12

  545. "Then cried a wise woman out of the city ... Behold, his head shall be thrown to thee over the wall ... And they cut off the head of Sheba ... and cast it out to Joab." 20:16-22

  546. A famine is sent on David's kingdom for three years. When David asks God why, God answers: "It is for Saul, and his bloody house, because he slew the Gibeonites. "So God sent a famine to punish a kingdom for something that a former king had done. 21:1

  547. To appease God and end the famine that was caused by his predecessor (Saul), David agrees to have two of Saul's sons and five of his grandsons killed and hung up "unto the Lord." 21:6-9

  548. "They hanged them in the hill before the LORD." 21:9

  549. "They gathered the bones of them that were hanged ... And after that God was intreated for the land."
    God stopped the famine after Saul's two sons and five grandsons were killed and hung up for him. 21:13-14

  550. "He teacheth my hands to war."
    Might as well learn from an expert. 22:35

  551. "I have pursued mine enemies, and destroyed them; and turned not again until I had consumed them. And I have consumed them, and wounded them, that they could not arise: yea, they are fallen under my feet." 22:38-39

  552. "Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies, that I might destroy them that hate me." 22:41

  553. "They looked, but there was none to save; even unto the LORD, but he answered them not." 22:42

  554. "I beat them as small as the dust of the earth, I did stamp them as the mire of the street." 22:43

  555. "It is God that avengeth me, and that bringeth down the people under me. And that bringeth me forth from mine enemies: thou also hast lifted me up on high above them that rose up against me." 22:48-49

  556. The chief of David's captains killed with his own spear 800 guys at one time. 23:8

  557. "Eleazar the son of Dodo ... smote the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand clave unto the sword: and the LORD wrought a great victory that day." 23:9-10

  558. "And the LORD wrought a great victory that day; and the people returned after him only to spoil." 23:10-12

  559. "Shammah the son of Agee ... slew the Philistines: and the LORD wrought a great victory." 23:11-12

  560. "Abishai ... lifted up his spear against three hundred, and slew them." 23:18

  561. "Benaiah the son of Jehoiada ... slew two lionlike men of Moab: he went down also and slew a lion in the midst of a pit in time of snow. And he slew an Egyptian, a goodly man: and the Egyptian had a spear in his hand." 23:20-21

  562. God offers David a choice of punishments for having conducted the census: 1) seven years of famine (1 Chr 21:12 says three years), 2) three months fleeing from enemies, or 3) three days of pestilence. David can't decide, so God chooses for him and sends a pestilence, killing 70,000 men (and probably around 200,000 women and children). 24:13

    563. 1 Kings

  563. In David's last words, he commands his son Solomon to murder Joab and Shimei. 2:1-9

  564. Solomon has his brother (Adonijah) murdered. 2:24-25

  565. Solomon carries out the deathbed instructions of his father David by having Joab murdered. 2:29-34

  566. Solomon justifies the murder of Joab by saying that Joab also was a murderer, and that the blood of Joab's victims "shall therefore return upon the head of Joab, and upon the head of his seed for ever." 2:33

  567. But Solomon is not done murdering yet. He has Shimei murdered -- or as Solomon put it, "The Lord shall return thy wickedness upon thine own head." 2:44, 46

  568. Solomon killed and sacrificed 1000 animals to God at Gibeon. 3:4

  569. When the ark of the covenant was brought into the temple, Solomon killed more animals than could be numbered. 8:5

  570. When dedicating the temple, Solomon killed 22,000 oxen and 120,000 sheep. 8:63

  571. "Joab ... had smitten every male in Edom."

  572. "Solomon sought therefore to kill Jeroboam." 11:40

  573. King Josiah is prophesied to sacrifice the priests of the "high places" on their altars. And he does so in 2 Kings 23:20. Note that this is a guy who "did what was right in the eyes of the Lord" (2 Kings 22:2). 13:2

  574. "And his hand, which he put forth against him, dried up ... And the man of God besought the LORD, and the king's hand was restored him again."

  575. "A lion met him by the way, and slew him."

  577. God promises to "bring evil upon the house of Jerobaom," saying he will "cut off" anyone "that pisseth against the wall." Then, after he is done with them, their dead bodies will be eaten by dogs (if they are city dwellers) or fowls (if they are country folk). 14:10-11

For his sins which he sinned in doing evil in the sight of the LORD, in walking in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin which he did, to make Israel to sin."
    Did God force Zimri to burn himself to death? 16:18-19

  586. "Zimri ... died ... doing evil in the sight of the LORD." 16:18-19

  587. "He laid the foundation thereof in Abiram his firstborn, and set up the gates thereof in his youngest son Segub, according to the word of the LORD."
    When Hiel rebuilds Jericho, he lays the foundation with the body of his oldest son and sets up the gates with his youngest son's body "according to the word of the Lord."
    Did God want Hiel to sacrifice his sons in this way? Did he make him do it? What does "according to the word of the Lord" mean here? 16:34

  588. Elijah kills 450 prophets of Baal. 18:22, 40

  589. "There came a prophet unto Ahab king of Israel, saying, Thus saith the LORD, Hast thou seen all this great multitude? behold, I will deliver it into thine hand this day; and thou shalt know that I am the LORD." 20:13

  598. "Thou didst blaspheme God and the king."
    Although Naboth was set up here by Jezebel to steal his land, the text assumes that the proper punishment for "blaspheming God and the king" is death by stoning. 21:10-13

  599. "Thus saith the Lord, in the place where dogs licked the blood of Naboth shall dogs lick thy blood, even thine."

  601. The dogs shall eat Jezebel."
    Jezebel (Ahab's "strange" wife) "stirred up" Ahab to "work wickedness in the sight of the Lord." To punish her, God will feed her dead body to the dogs. He also plans to feed Ahab's family to the dogs (if they live in the city) and to the birds (if they are country folks). 21:23-25

  602. "Seest thou how Ahab humbleth himself before me? because he humbleth himself before me, I will not bring the evil in his days: but in his son's days will I bring the evil upon his house."
    Since Ahab humbles himself before the Lord, God decides not to bring evil on him; he'll he'll bring it on Ahab's son instead. 21:29

  603. "And the LORD said, Who shall persuade Ahab?"
    God asks for volunteer among the guys hanging out with him. He wants one of them to lie for him so that he can get Ahab kiiled. 22:19-22

  1138. God will "smite the heathen" with a plague. 14:18

    1139. Malachi

  1139. God continues to demand animal sacrifices. And not just any animals will do. He is insulted when blind, lame, or sick animals are killed for him. 1:7-14

  1140. God will burn "the wicked" and the "righteous" will walk around on their ashes. 4:1-3

  1141. The Old Testament ends fittingly with these words: "lest I come and smite the earth with a curse." 4:6

    1142. Matthew

  1142. God allowed the mass slaughter of all the infants in Bethlehem, two years old or younger, to fulfill a prophecy!

  1143. Those who bear bad fruit will be cut down and burned "with unquenchable fire." 3:10, 12

  1144. Jesus strongly approves of the law and the prophets. He hasn't the slightest objection to the cruelties of the Old Testament. 5:17

  1145. Jesus recommends that to avoid sin we cut off our hands and pluck out our eyes. This advice is given immediately after he says that anyone who looks with lust at any women commits adultery. 5:29-30

  1146. Jesus says that most people will go to hell. 7:13-14

  1150. Jesus sends some devils into a herd of pigs, causing them to run off a cliff and drown in the waters below. 8:32

  1151. Cities that neither "receive" the disciples nor "hear" their words will be destroyed by God. It will be worse for them than for Sodom and Gomorrah. And you know what God supposedly did to those poor folks (see Gen 19:24). 10:14-15

  1152. Families will be torn apart because of Jesus (this is one of the few "prophecies" in the Bible that has actually come true). "Brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child: and the children shall rise up against their parents, and cause them to be put to death." 10:21

  1153. Jesus says that we should fear God who is willing and "able to destroy both soul and body in hell." 10:28

  1154. Jesus says that he has come to destroy families by making family members hate each other. He has "come not to send peace, but a sword." 10:34-36

  1157. Jesus is criticized by the Pharisees for not washing his hands before eating. He defends himself by attacking them for not killing disobedient children according to the commandment: "He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death." (See Ex 21:15, Lev 20:9, Dt 21:18-21) So, does Jesus think that children who curse their parents should be killed? It sure sounds like it. 15:4-7

  1158. "Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up." 15:13

  1159. Jesus advises his followers to mutilate themselves by cutting off their hands and plucking out their eyes. He says it's better to be "maimed" than to suffer "everlasting fire." 18:8-9

  1160. In the parable of the unforgiving servant, the king threatens to enslave a man and his entire family to pay for a debt. This practice, which was common at the time, seems not to have bothered Jesus very much. The parable ends with this: "So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you." If you are cruel to others, God will be cruel to you. 18:23-35

  1161. "And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors." 18:34

  1162. God is like a rich man who owns a vineyard and rents it to poor farmers. When he sends servants to collect the rent, the tenants beat or kill them. So he sent his son to collect the rent, and they kill him too. Then the owner comes and kills the farmers and rents the vineyard to others. 21:33-41

  1163. "Whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder." Whoever falls on "this stone" (Jesus) will be broken, and whomever the stone falls on will be ground into powder. 21:44

  1164. In the parable of the marriage feast, the king sends his servants to gather everyone they can find, both bad and good, to come to the wedding feast. One guest didn't have on his wedding garment, so the king tied him up and "cast him into the outer darkness" where "there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth." 22:1-14

  1165. The end of the world will be signaled by wars, famines, disease, and earthquakes (6-7). And that's just "the beginning of sorrows" (8). Next believers will be hated and killed by unbelievers (9), believers will hate and betray each other (10), false prophets will fool people (11), iniquity will abound and love wax cold (12). But hey, if you make through all that, you'll be saved (13).

    Only one more thing will happen before the end comes: the gospel will be preached throughout the world (14). Well, that and the abomination of desolations will stand in the holy place (15), many false Christs and false prophets will show great signs and wonders (24), the sun and moon will be darkened and the stars will fall (29), the sign of the son of Man will appear in the sky, everyone on earth will mourn, and then, finally, the great and powerful son of Man will come in all his glory (30).

    Oh, and all these things will happen within the lifespan of Jesus' contemporaries (34).

    Or maybe not. Jesus was talking about things he knew nothing about (36). (See Mark 13:32.) 24:3-51

  1166. Jesus had no problem with the idea of drowning everyone on earth in the flood. It'll be just like that when he returns. 24:37

  1167. God will come when people least expect him and then he'll "cut them asunder." And "there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth." 24:50-51

  1168. The parable of the cruel and unjust master
    The kingdom of heaven is like a rich man who distributed his wealth to his servants while he traveled. He gave five talents (a talent was a unit of money, worth about 20 years of a worker's wages) to one servant, two to another, and one to a third. When he returned, the servant with five talents had made five more, the servant with two made two more, but the servant with one talent only had the talent his master entrusted to him. The master rewarded the servants that invested his money (without his permission -- what would have happened if the stock market went down during their master's travels?) and took the talent from the single-talent servant and gave it to the one with ten talents. "For unto every one that hath shall be given .. but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath." Then the cruel and unjust master cast the servant who carefully protected his master's talent into the "outer darkness: [where] there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth." 25:14-30

  1169. The servant who kept and returned his master's talent was cast into the "outer darkness" where there will be "weeping and gnashing of teeth." 25:30

  1170. Jesus judges the nations. 25:31-46

  1171. Jesus tells us what he has planned for those that he dislikes. They will be cast into an "everlasting fire." 25:41

  1172. Jesus says the damned will be tormented forever. 25:46

    1173. Mark

  1173. Jesus explains why he speaks in parables: to confuse people so they will go to hell. 4:11-12

  1174. Jesus sends devils into 2000 pigs, causing them to jump off a cliff and be drowned in the sea. When the people hear about it, they beg Jesus to leave. 5:12-13

  1176. Jesus criticizes the Jews for not killing their disobedient children as required by Old Testament law. (See Ex 21:15, Lev 20:9, Dt 21:18-21) 7:9-10

  1177. Jesus tells us to cut off our hands and feet, and pluck out our eyes to avoid going to hell. 9:43-49

  1178. God is like a rich man who owns a vineyard and rents it to poor farmers. When he sends servants to collect the rent, the tenants beat or kill them. So he sent his son to collect the rent, and they kill him too. Then the owner comes and kills the farmers and gives the vineyard to others. 12:1-9

  1179. Jesus tells his disciples to eat his body and drink his blood. 14:22-24

  1180. Jesus says that those that believe and are baptized will be saved, while those who don't will be damned. 16:16

    1181. Luke

  1181. Zechariah asks the angel Gabriel how his wife Elizabeth could become pregnant, since she is "stricken with years." Gabriel makes him "dumb" just for asking. 1:20

  1183. John the Baptist says that Christ will burn the damned "with fire unquenchable." 3:17

  1184. Jesus heals a naked man who was possessed by many devils by sending the devils into a herd of pigs, causing them to run off a cliff and drown in the sea. This messy, cruel, and expensive (for the owners of the pigs) treatment did not favorably impress the local residents, and Jesus was asked to leave. 8:27-37

  1185. Jesus says that entire cities will be violently destroyed and the inhabitants "thrust down to hell" for not "receiving" his disciples. 10:10-15

  1186. Jesus says that we should fear God since he has the power to kill us and then torture us forever in hell. 12:5

  1187. Jesus says that God is like a slave-owner who beats his slaves "with many stripes." 12:46-47

  1188. "Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish." 13:3, 5

  1189. According to Jesus, only a few will be saved; the vast majority will suffer eternally in hell where "there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth." 13:23-30

  1190. In the parable of the rich man and Lazarus, the rich man goes to hell, because as Abraham explains, he had a good life on earth and so now he will be tormented. Whereas Lazarus, who was miserable on earth, is now in heaven. This seems fair to Jesus. 16:19-31

  1191. Jesus believed the story of Noah's ark. He thought it really happened and had no problem with the idea of God drowning everything and everybody. 17:26-27

  1192. Jesus also believes the story about Sodom's destruction. He says, "even thus shall it be in the day the son of man is revealed ... Remember Lot's wife." This tells us about Jesus' knowledge of science and history, and his sense of justice. 17:29-32

  1193. In the parable of the talents, Jesus says that God takes what is not rightly his, and reaps what he didn't sow. The parable ends with the words: "bring them [those who preferred not to be ruled by him] hither, and slay them before me." 19:22-27

  1194. Jesus tells his disciples to eat his body and drink his blood. 22:19-20

    1195. John

  1195. Jesus believed the stupid and vicious story from Numbers 21. (God sent snakes to bite the people for complaining about the lack of food and water. Then God told Moses to make a brass snake to cure them from the bites.) 3:14

  1196. "God so loved the world, that he gave his His only begotten Son."
    As an example to parents everywhere and to save the world (from himself), God had his own son tortured and killed. 3:16

  1197. People are damned or saved depending only on what they believe. 3:18, 36

  1198. The "wrath of God" is on all unbelievers. 3:36

  1199. Jesus believes people are crippled by God as a punishment for sin. He tells a crippled man, after healing him, to "sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee." 5:14

  1200. Jesus says we must eat his flesh and drink his blood if we want to have eternal life. This idea was just too gross for "many of his disciples" and "walked no more with him." (They are called Protestants nowadays.) 6:53-66

  1201. I and my father are one.

    Jesus usually seems much nicer than his supposed father. But here he claims to be one with his father. If so, then he is just as cruel as the God of the Old Testament.

  1202. Those who do not believe in Jesus will be cast into a fire to be burned. 15:6

    1203. Acts

  1203. Peter claims that Dt 18:18-19 refers to Jesus, saying that those who refuse to follow him (all non-Christians) must be killed. 3:23

  1204. Peter and God scare Ananias and his wife to death for not forking over all of the money that they made when selling their land. 5:1-10

  1205. Peter has a dream in which God show him "wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls." The voice (God's?) says, "Rise, Peter: kill and eat." 10:10-13

  1206. Peter describes the vision that he had in the last chapter (10:10-13). All kinds of beasts, creeping things, and fowls drop down from the sky in a big sheet, and a voice (God's, Satan's?) tells him to "Arise, Peter; slay and eat." 11:5-10

  1207. The "angel of the Lord" killed Herod by having him "eaten of worms" because "he gave not God the glory." 12:23

  1208. Paul and the Holy Ghost conspire together to make Elymas (the sorcerer) blind. 13:8-11

  1209. David was "a man after [God's] own heart." 13:22

  1210. The author of Acts talks about the "sure mercies of David." But David was anything but merciful. For an example of his behavior see 2 Sam 12:31 and 1 Chr 20:3, where he saws, hacks, and burns to death the inhabitants of several cities. 13:34

    1211. Romans

  1211. Homosexuals (those "without natural affection") and their supporters (those "that have pleasure in them") are "worthy of death" - - along with gossips, boasters, and disobedient children. 1:31-32

  1228. Christians shouldn't mourn the death of their fellow believers. They'll be OK and you'll see them later in heaven. The people you should mourn are dead nonbelievers. They have no hope (because they're going to hell). 4:13

    1229. 2 Thessalonians

  1229. Jesus will take "vengeance on them that know not God" by burning them forever "in flaming fire." 1:7-9

  1230. Jesus will "consume" the wicked "with the spirit of his mouth." 2:8

  1231. God will cause us to believe lies so that he can damn our souls to hell. 2:11-12

    1232. 1 Timothy

  1232. Slaves ("servants" in the KJV) should treat their masters "worthy of all honor, that the name of God and his doctrine be not blasphemed." This is especially true when both slave and owner are Christians. Anyone that teaches otherwise is a proud know-nothing. 6:1-4

    1233. Hebrews

  1233. "That which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is to be burned."
    Apostates will burn in hell with the other non-believers. 6:8

  1234. "Melchisedec ... met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him."
    God showed his approval of "the slaughter of the kings" with Melchisedec's blessing of Abraham. (Genesis 14:17-18) 7:1

  1235. God will not forgive anyone unless something is killed for him in a bloody manner. 9:13-22

  1239. "It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God." 10:31

  1240. "Abraham ... offered up Isaac ... his only begotten son." (And this was a good thing? How fucked up is that?) 11:17

  1241. The Israelites kept the passover and sprinkled blood on doorposts so that God wouldn't kill their firstborn children (like he did the Egyptians in Exodus 12:29). 11:28

  1243. "Time would fail me to tell of Gideon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthah; of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets."
    The heroes of faith: Gideon, Samson, Jephthah, David, and Samuel. It would be hard to find a more monstrous group than these guys. 11:32

  1244. "Others were tortured ... that they might obtain a better resurrection." 11:35

  1245. God ordered animals to be "stoned, or thrust through with a dart" if they "so much as ... touch the mountain." 12:20

  1246. "Ye are come ... to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things that that of Abel." 12:22-24

    1247. James

  1247. James says Abraham was justified by works (for being willing to kill his son for God); Paul (Romans 4:2-3) says he was justified by faith (for believing that God would order him to do such an evil act). 2:21

    1248. 1 Peter

  1248. We are all, according to Peter, predestined to be saved or damned. We have no say in the matter. It was all determined by "the sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ."1:2

    God planned to kill Jesus from the get-go. 1:19-20

  1262. "I [Jesus] will kill her children with death." 2:23

  1263. "Thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created." God created parasites, pathogens, and predators for his very own pleasure. One of his favorite species is guinea worms. 4:11

  1267. God tells Death and Hell to kill one quarter of the earth's population with the sword, starvation, and "with the beasts of the earth." 6:8

  1268. The martyrs just can't wait until everyone else is slaughtered. God gives them a white robe and tells them to wait until he's done with his killing spree. 6:10-11

  1269. God tells his murderous angels to "hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of your God on their foreheads." This verse is one that Christians like to use to show God's loving concern for the environment. But the previous verse (7:2) makes it clear that it was their God-given job to "hurt the earth and the sea" just as soon as they finished their forehead marking job. 7:3

  1270. 144,000 Jews will be going to heaven; everyone else is going to hell. 7:4

  1274. The angels are instructed not to "hurt the grass [how could they? He already had all the grass killed in 8:7] ... but only those men which have not the seal of God on their foreheads." God tells his angels not to kill them, but rather torment them with scorpions for five months. Those tormented will want to die, but God won't let them. 9:4-6

  1275. God makes some horse-like locusts with human heads, women's hair, lion's teeth, and scorpion's tails. They sting people and hurt them for five months. 9:7-10

  1276. Four angels, with an army of 200 million, killed a third of the earth's population. 9:15-19

  1277. Anyone that messes with God's two olive trees and two candlesticks (God's witnesses) will be burned to death by fire that comes out of their mouths. 11:3-5

  1280. The bodies of God's witnesses will lie unburied for three and a half days. People will "rejoice over them and make merry, and shall send gifts to one another." After another three and half days God brings his witnesses back to life and they ascend into heaven. 11:8-12

  1281. When the witnesses ascend into heaven, an earthquake kills 7000 men. This was the second woe. "The third woe cometh quickly." 11:13-14

    God planned to kill Jesus before he created the world. 13:8
