How do Christians reconcile Jesus and the ‘turn the other cheek’ stuff with the gratuitous violence in the Old Testament? I’ve just finished reading from Genesis to Judges, and the Israelites have committed countless war crimes: killing civilians, killing women and children, taking people into captivity, the tribe of Benjamin stealing women to marry, torture, and bodily dismemberment etc. Now I see where Marcion was coming from. The only ways I could see someone reconciling the two different ‘Gods’ are just allegorising the whole OT (which would affect the historicity of it) or just becoming a presuppositionalist and not allowing anyone to question it.
