JIHAD in the Old Testament commanded by GOD for the believers ?

When thou comest nigh unto a city to fight against it, then proclaim peace unto it.
And it shall be, if it make thee answer of peace, and open unto thee, then it shall be, [that] all the people [that is] found therein shall be tributaries unto thee, and they shall serve thee.
And if it will make no peace with thee, but will make war against thee, then thou shalt besiege it:
And when the LORD thy God hath delivered it into thine hands, thou shalt smite every male thereof with the edge of the sword: But the women, and the little ones, and the cattle, and all that is in the city, [even] all the spoil thereof, shalt thou take unto thyself; and thou shalt eat the spoil of thine enemies, which the LORD thy God hath given thee. Thus shalt thou do unto all the cities [which are] very far off from thee, which [are] not of the cities of these nations. -- Deu 20:10-15

[64] Chavel 1967, v.I, 200f. The Bible references are Deuteronomy 20.

There are two types of war applicable to the 21st Century believers :

1. milhemet hova (obligatory war)
2. milhemet reshut (optional war)

This obligation is commented by Rabbi Chavel:

"This Commandment ... will be better understood in the light of the following passage from the 'Mishneh Torah': '

We are not to engage in war with anyone whatever unless we [first] proclaim peace to him; [this is applicable to both] an optional and an obligatory war; for it is said, When thou drawest nigh a city to fight against it, then proclaim peace unto it (Deut XX, 10).

If [the inhabitants] accept the offer of peace... we are not to slay a soul among them, and they merely become tributary, for it is said, [All the people ... therein] shall become tributary unto thee, and shall serve thee'." (Ibid.)

****** OT COMMAND BY THE LORD OF ABRAHAM : *****

Step 1 --- Give them the option of peace (to become believers)
Step 2 ---- If they want to keep their religion, they must pay the Tribute (Head Tax)
Step 3 ---- If they deny the above two options then kill them all or enslave them.

In other words, if the city's inhabitants object to being subdued/enslaved, they have to be slain nevertheless. Also sparing their life directly contradicts Negative Commandment 49 (see note [65]).

"We must not make a covenant with idolaters, to agree on keeping peace with them or accept them practising idolatry, because it says (Deut 7:2) Thou shalt not make a covenant with them. Either they give up idolatry or they are killed. And it is forbidden to pity them, since it says (ibid.): Nor shalt thou shew mercy unto them.

The above references the command from the OLD TESTAMENT which according to Judaic law is applicable for all time and for all believers.


If Christians believe Jesus is God then he is the God of the Old Testament and therefore they cannot deny that GOD commanded this for the believers.

If we were attacked by let's say China and was in the middle of a war with 500 casualties weekly and if we lost the states of California, Oregan, Washington, and Arizona would become Chinese provinces would it be a popular war?

My feelings are that no war is popular. Noone wanted to fight WWI, WWII or Korea but they had to be fought to protect the interests of America in the world. The "UNPOPULAR" war we are fighting in Iraq is the same thing. Nobody wants a war but sometimes it has to be done.

black people, it sometimes seems, should be allowed to say all the hateful things they want because they have been oppressed and picked on mercilessly for the last 25 years; should Sharpton be cut slack because of the victimization of the last several years; do you agree or disagree?

I was driving yesterday on a main road in TN when I suddenly saw that the car in front of me threw away a big bag of a “value meal” from a fast food restaurant out of the window. I was in shock! I wanted to write down the license plate number, state, and the county, but I didn’t know if this was going to be any good. Was the guy going to be persecuted and he would end up paying a fine, or was the government official just going to tell me that there’s nothing that I could do? Is there something that we can do about this?

when he admitted that he used steroids, admitted to cheating on his wife, cheating on his taxes and cheating on the game.

If they are going to allow this why hasn't Pete Rose been reinstated yet? seems betting on some games is minor compared to what barry bonds has done. He is such a loser... why does anyone even pitch to him?

Hank Aaron was an honorable player... and MLB should do their best to keep the record with someone of honor.

Hi guys - My Fiancee and I will find out on May 22nd if our 2nd (and final) child is a little boy, or little girl. We've already got a beautiful 2 y/o little girl named Quinn. We are trying so hard to find names for both sexes that we like, but keep hitting dead end after dead end.

I mean we've done it all - Suggestions, Numerous Baby Books, Probably 100 Websites, etc, etc..

Both of us really hate "girly" names for little Boy's, so were looking for something strong -- But on the other end of the spectrum -- We both like boyish names for little girls. Kind of confusing, huh? :o)

So far we've thought of, and gone away from:

Girls:
Peyton
Olivia
Caroline

Boys:
Frank (my name)
Riley
Boston

So those are out and we're back to Square one.

She really wants to name a little girl "Francesca" and call her "Frankie" -- Is that cute, or would she eventually hate us for it?

Also - Any suggestions welcome, the more, the better!! We need the help!!!!!

It is like reverse tag with a football...kind of like kill the man with the ball but with a few (very few..haha) rules. We used to play that all the time when I was young...does it still exist? Some people at work were talking about games we played as kids...like kick the can...which is kind of a cross between hide and seek and tag.
