Randal Rauser on Jesus Loves Canaanites
Christians have been quick to raise concerns about violence in the Qur'an in the Muslim context, but often ignore or gloss over violence in the biblical text. One of the greatest examples of violence in the Bible is the divine command for the wholesale destruction of the Canaanites. In this episode of the podcast our guest is Randal Rauser, who discusses his book Jesus Loves Canaanites: Biblical Genocide in the Light of Moral Intuition. Rauser is Professor of Historical Theology at Taylor Seminary in Edmonton Alberta.
Also mentioned in this podcast and related to the subject matter:
"The Zeal of Phinehas: The Bible and the Legitimation of Violence" by John J. Collins, Journal of Biblical Literature 122/1 (2003): 3-21.
