Dear Friends,

I have a question:
Is there a risk that a christian (who reads the bible) could go bananas at a star party by following Numbers 31:17-18 ?

17 Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.

18 But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.

william,
i thought those verses were divine command,
the context being a mass massacre,
a war document that orders the killing of children and women should be, hmm, classified....
but wait,
what about

Psalm 137:9
9 Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.

i mean,
"happy" ?
