A Deep Insight Into The Biblical Honor Killing

By Stacey Massey


There happens to be a people on this earth who have happened to quote biblical honor killing to be the most reasonable and the perfect way to affirm their faith as Christians. They have strongly asserted that there are a people in the Christian faith who asserts themselves in this faith by practicing the tradition of biblical honor killing; a characteristic that has been mostly dominant of the Muslims community. They are so quick to quote that the tradition of honor killings has been so fervent in the Old Testament and that anyone who did not abide by the laws of the living God then, he was surely deserving of death.

In the book of exodus, the Muslims argue that there is a verse, which conquers with homage killings. It asserts that anyone who is found to have cursed his mother or father shall be surely put to death. Therefore, they continue to assert that it was perfectly clear that children who disobeyed or cursed their parents were immediately put to death.

They have been pointed out as the victims of this homage murders because of their vulnerability and alleged scorn to laws on marriage, love and sex.Men who have proclaimed that they are homosexual are also said to be one of the other targets. Actually, the discerned criminal conduct could be because of one type of misconduct or the other.

Actually, one can certainly see that a rebellious boy is the one who is being talked about here. One actually also notices that women and other girls are not mentioned on the holy texts. One of the most significant and endowed reason why this is so because the rebellious son was both a drunkard and gluttonous.

Personalities that happen to indulge in these kinds of acts are actually obliterated or annihilated in different ways. There are stories that have happened to be true, of husbands and brothers shooting their wives or sisters to death. In the ancient times, before Christ, the act of stoning people to death was a common feature of punishing the transgressors of the law.

There happens to be another argument that has been brought in relation to the homage murders. These kinds of murders happen to have everywhere in the world. The murdering of women and children are also traverse and global.

Also in the bible times, the law transgressors were stoned to death and they were burned to the stake by fire. Making quick references to the old testament of the bible, women who happened to have hurt the ego for men were often stoned to death. The act of human sacrifices is mostly depicted in the Old Testament.

Ritual killing also happens to take center stage in the continent of Africa. Biblical honor killing have been said to be alive and active at this moment and time. Both religions in the Muslim and Christian community do not advocate for such actions and have distanced themselves from the atrocious actions.
