This is the same mistake you make in almost every video.
You assume that because the Bible records an event, God must approve of it.
The Levite's concubine? A horrifying act that shows how far Israel had fallen.
Lot? A tragic account of human sin, not a model to imitate.
Jephthah's vow? A reckless vow with devastating consequences, not a command from God.
Judah and Tamar? A messy story of sin, deception, and God's providence despite human failure.
The Bible is brutally honest about humanity. It doesn't sanitize evil or pretend God's people were morally perfect. That's one of the reasons historians value it.
And when you ask whether these stories have anything to do with God, you've ignored the central point of the Bible:
God repeatedly enters a broken, violent, sinful world to call people away from sin and ultimately to reveal Himself in Jesus Christ.
The irony is that you say Christians ignore the difficult passages, yet Christians have been reading, preaching, and wrestling with them for 2,000 years.
The real question isn't whether the Bible contains disturbing stories.
It does.
The question is whether those stories describe human rebellion or prescribe Christian behaviour.
Those are two completely different things.
And if you're going to reject the Bible because it truthfully records humanity's darkest moments, then you'd also have to reject every serious history book that records war, slavery, genocide, and abuse.
Recording evil is not endorsing evil.
That's the distinction your argument keeps missing.
