Wouldn't a god make sure the only ''evidence'' for his existence would be properly translated?
I have proper polish translation. I could translate from polish to english - took, not rape. So if someone took some woman like you take a your own woman (by her love handles if you know what I mean
) he have to make her his wife.
So its some problem with you english, and you allowing such a blatant translation. Maybe find some better translated bible or something.
What about all the other points?
1. Divine protection is only for the ones that obey divinity. For the rest there is a man law. And the law of the land around Izrael was cruel. There is no commandment to have slaves, or not to have them. God ignores the ones that ignore him.
2. Im not sure about selling your daughter. So yeah... its puzzling for me. But it was not a sex slave. It would be fornication that would be a transition from divine protection. You have to know that its not what God wants, he allows that. I don't know why. Probably some cultural reason. Its completly not applicable in todays world. My guess is that would be the way to legalise the multitude of wifes. As you can see secondary wifes in the Bible and etc. That was probably because man died more times than woman, and a parents would not find a husband for her, so they "sold" her as a secondary wife or something like that. I am not sure, but there should be some reason to do that.
3. You need to know that Moses probably had mixed human law taken from Egypt with God Law. The only thing was the decalogue that God had made himself. How can we know if other things are not mixed up as well? Well... they are as Bible then debunk itself. But that doesn't mean Bible contradict itself. Those are left for a pedagogical reasons. To read the bible you need to find 2 witnesses that says the same thing. That means its inspired.
4. Killing your child. Well... That was only in one case in the Bible. And it was not about the child. It was about the grown up men. You know. No parents want to kill their kids. Thats why it was not recorded in the Bible. If a grown up person did not like the Izraeli ways he could imigrate, and that was the most common 99,9999% of cases. It was always as every law with a trial. And if trials would be like Jesus was saying they should - mercyful, everything would be interpreted the right way.
5. Bible being against sacrificing children implies that the death is a scare crow for adults not to shame their parents. And yes it protects the parents from shame. So you see the theme of divine protection.
But to be honest if you are not grateful to the ones that gave you life, you are not worthy of it. Thats a truism. That doesn't mean there will not be many if any not merciful father or mather. Thats a "law" that was to put a test of Izraelis. If you are mercyful why should I not be as your father. Its a pedagogical tool to make people understand they were on their mercy alone, thats why they are alive.
Its even in the prayer. Forgive us as we forgive our trespassers. You get it?
Just because the torah involves even the most controversial subjects, does not mean that its a manual of how to be gruesome. Is it?
Even the guy that is not protected by God's law or any men's law God had said not to kill - foreign slave or he would be angry. You need to understand that a fate of that unfortunate men would be far worse as wage slave as abolishion of slaves had proven.
Nothing can justify slavery. But God is not justifying anything. JUstice is opposite to justification. And the justice of the Lord is simple. You do not want him - you will not get him. You are on your own. And if the world is cruel like the world was at that time - you will get some.
