ed note–there is nothing ‘extremist’ about this. These 2 Jews were doing EXACTLY what their Judaism demands, and anyone who says differently is–in the words of the irreplaceable Michael Collins Piper– either a fool or a liar..
Lest we forget–
“When the LORD your God brings you into the land you are to possess and casts out the many peoples living there, you shall then slaughter them all and utterly destroy them…You shall save nothing alive that breathes…You shall make no agreements with them nor show them any mercy. You shall destroy their altars, break down their images, cut down their groves and burn their graven images with fire. For you are a holy people unto the LORD thy God and He has chosen you to be a special people above all others upon the face of the earth…”–Book of Deuteronomy
Book of Deuteronomy….. No matter how one feels about this scripture, it doesn’t apply today. That verse was written for a place and a time for a people that no longer exist.
