An Argument On Biblical Honor Killing

By Wanda Vaughn


Numerous number of Christians like accusing Muslims of performing many killings of obedience in Islam religion. This is due to the fact that, they use this through similar point of argument as usual explanation of discrediting Islam in their vicinity. They must be told very sufficiently that biblical honor killing took place in during the periods of fore fathers as proved by scripture readings.

To begin with, Leviticus chapter twenty one verse nine states that if the daughter of any Father, in case if profanes herself by playing whore, then profanity will be done to the father and need to be burnt with fire. Therefore, should priests daughters commits any bad sexual act, they must be burned just because of the fathers reputation. Reason being, it is actually against his respect.

It is astonishing on what Christians have to explain about such an action now? . As a matter of fact, this well presented respectful origin of death in lives of believers . The command is given by word of God itself.

On the other hand, Exodus chapter twenty one states that whoever curses the parents shall be rewarded by being put to death. Similar words are indicated in Leviticus chapter twenty verses nine. People who curse their guardians are warned that their blood will be upon them once this occurs.

In these cases, children are punished with death not for reason of than insulting parents. Are these examples not biblical honor killing? . It is definite that these are some of the situations offspring should be punished to lose lives for disrespecting very parents.

As a matter of fact, no one will ever get the knack of why Jephthah decided to sacrifice only child by burnt offering. In Judges, it is argued that spirit of God descended upon the king. That was after passing Gilead all the way through Mizpah. The king made committed a covenant that had to be fulfilled.

That was upon returned to home in Mizpah. Someone had to get out meeting the king after the hard fight and that was nobody other than the daughter. Dancing to very attractively up to sound of played tambourines as the only child. The child had to be killed because of the covenant made with the lord.

Moreover, this was after duration of two months as indicated by request so as to allow time for crying with friends and well wishers. From this occurrence, custom of the Israelite developed. It is celebrated by young females at least once in a year for estimated four days. That is whereby the event is commemorated by reminding them of old times.

To conclude with, these are just few real examples of biblical honor killing since Christians have issues about respect killings committed by Muslims. Islam is never wrong because those who perform this act illustrate respect to Allah. Otherwise the Scripture is wrong because as indicated, these deaths proves the word wrong. Honestly saying, either path follows of Christianity are in bad dilemma since their numbers is reducing as those of Muslim shoots up steadily because they give birth to unlimited children unlike in the believers.
