God sought to kill Moses' son, because he was not circumsized. His wife, however, stepped in and took care of business. This was something that Moses should have had done years before, but had neglected to do so, and so his wife was not pleased with him.

Originally posted by twhiteheadas in Sodom they were sinning greatly but they must have had new born. whats the problem. In the OT it was common for the sins of the farthers to be passed to a third generation.

Originally posted by stokerThat's the problem. I do not believe that I am in any way responsible for the sins of my father and I call into question the morals of anyone who does think that way.

I think if God told you to your face to do something, you should probably do it.
It's good that you recognize that the child was innocent. As such, if he was killed, he'd probably get an express trip to Heaven. The time the kid spent on Earth wouldn't even be a blip in his memory before too long.

Originally posted by twhiteheadMoses loved his son and the loss of his son would be punishment. It probably also has more significance in the relationship between Moses and God.

How would you know that the person telling you [to your face] to do something was God?
