    That’s a collection of books. And where does God kill people unjustly?

      Well, there’s the Flood and the Ten Plagues (particularly that tenth one) for starters.

      Then there’s the various war crimes committed by the Israelites at Jehovah’s explicit instructions (e.g. the genocide of the Midianites in Numbers 31).

        The flood spared the innocents (Noah’s family) and the plagues were done because Pharaoh wouldn’t free the slaves, the blood was on Pharaoh’s hands.

        God just said to avenge Israel. Moses carried out the rest of the orders.
