Why Did God Fight Wars?

from Aphesis Hosted by School of Aphesis

The wars of the Old Testament have troubled readers for centuries. Was God commanding indiscriminate violence, or was something deeper taking place? In this episode, we explore the ancient worldview behind biblical warfare, the role of divine judgment, victory rhetoric, covenant, and why Israel's battles were ultimately about Yahweh's supremacy above the gods of the nations. Discover how these narratives fit into the larger story of redemption and God's justice.
