Have you ever wondered how God can command the destruction of entire people groups? Why did Israel have to destroy those in the Land of Canaan, and why was Israel punished for not following God's command? Is God merely harsh and unloving in this matter or did He have reason to destroy the Canaanites? How is Israel's conquest of Canaan different from Islamic Jihad? In episode 13 we answer some difficult questions related to God's command for the total annihilation of the Land of Canaan. Dr. Roy Beacham talks with us about the Old Testament concept of devoted to destruction (herem), what this meant for God's people Israel, and what this tells us about God.
