Infanticide
In honor of Rabbi Michael Avraham
Are you explicitly ignoring that there are many places in the Bible where God, when He punishes, punishes even infants, and furthermore, to punish adults, He kills their children?

Even if adults are punished by killing their children, it is not like this. Here the babies themselves suffered torment. If they were killed carelessly without suffering, then the suffering remains only for the adults who lack them. Beyond that, it is difficult to accept that all the children who die are precisely those whose parents owe punishment. Beyond that, if you refer to the column on the words of Rabbi Shmuel Eliyahu, the discussion there is not about the question of whether God is moral, but about the question of whether Rabbi Eliyahu is right. He assumes that God is moral and explains His actions morally, and I argue that there is no explanation there. Now you can discuss whether He acts morally or not.
