Murder in the Bible
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Murder is an act that occurs often in the Bible. Many skeptics claim that certain instances of murder in the Bible are sanctioned by God, yet murder is not often interpreted in the Bible to mean all forms of killing, even though skeptics arguments generally focus on most forms of killing.[1] [2] [3]
