| Popis: | This article argues that the biblical critic is obliged to interpret the sacred texts commanding genocide in the light of their historical nature. It demonstrates that this task is not simple. It then argues that the application of that interpretation to the problem of religious ethics is even less simple and that, in particular, nothing can replace the difficult task of moral reasoning. |
