From which holy scripture is this verse?
Lets see how well we know our religious scriptures :)
When you march up to attack a city, make its people an offer of peace. If they accept and open their gates, all the people in it shall be subject to forced labor and shall work for you. If they refuse to make peace and they engage you in battle, lay siege to that city. When the Lord your God delivers it into your hand, put to the sword all the men in it. As for the women, the children, the livestock and everything else in the city, you may take these as plunder for yourselves. And you may use the plunder the Lord your God gives you from your enemies. This is how you are to treat all the cities that are at a distance from you and do not belong to the nations nearby.

Those words were told to the Hebrews, in their way to the promised Land. What is REALLY important, is WHY would God say that to Moses. Do YOU know?
These fellows, used to sacrifice children (of their own) into the fire; burn them alive, to their God Moloch. Sometimes, instead, they put people INSIDE WALLS and let them die in there, as a sacrifice for their new home to their God. My question to you: how would YOU deal with Jihadi John, should you have the chance to put your hands on him, before the Americans killed him?
[Deuteronomy 12:31-32] "You shall not do so unto the LORD your God: for every abomination to the LORD, which he hates, have they done unto their gods; for even THEIR SONS AND THEIR DAUGHTERS THEY HAVE BURNED IN THE FIRETO THEIR GODS. Whatsoever thing I command you, observe to do it: you shall not add thereto, nor take away from it."
Isn't the same thing the Palestinians are doing to their OWN children, when they dress them up in mock uniforms and wooden Kalashnikovs? The kids believe it's fun...
Now, did YOU know about this little detail?

I didn't use Google and someone probably did, but I know that it was applied in the book of Joshua in the early chapters. The actual destruction of the city and killing of everyone, including the women and children.

This is a place to ask question, not lecture.
If you have something you are trying to find out about, then go ahead and ask.
If you want to play Bible games, please go elsewhere. We don't need Bible games here. You clog up the bandwidth. Please stop it.
