If the bible is the word of God, and God says thou shalt not kill.?

I'm pretty sure it means: the non-believers in the Kingdom of Judah. The paragraph is focusing on the people from the Kingdom of Israel who fled Israel to live in Judah, and on King Asa's destruction of all idols and restoration of the Temple altar. (That is: King Asa's enforcement of monotheism in the kingdom.) https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?se... Notice the last verse there: "All Judah rejoiced concerning the oath, for they had sworn with their whole heart and had sought Him earnestly..." Another possibility: it is referring only to the Israelites living in Judah.

Foreigners living in Judah might not be required (or perhaps even not allowed) to worship at the Temple - but of course foreigners would in any case not be allowed to worship foreign deities in Judah.

In that time period anyone who was not a believer was a raging mad man that slaughtered the innocent. They have now changed into joining Islam or becoming Atheist. It depends whether they want to kill or lie all the time.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
