What about the horses life? Is this not cruel? I trust God btw, but I’m just trying to understand how this is justified. I have read up on this and can see why it makes sense for Israel, but what about the horses life? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To preserve an animals live, how many people are you willing to have die? The animal sacrifices in the bible, would you, if you lived then happily see killed a lamb every year so you could worship God? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
