Commandments that are not kept
I read your answer https://mikyab.net/%D7%A9%D7%95%D7%AA/%d7%a1%d7%aa%d7%99%d7%a8%d7%94-%d7%91%d7%99%d7%9f-%d7%94%d7%aa%d7%95%d7%a8%d7%94-%d7%95%d7%94%d7%9e%d7%95%d7%a1%d7%a8.
Regarding commandments such as exterminating the Amalekites, taking down and not raising them, etc., you wrote, “In my opinion, they are valid, but in practice most of them will not be carried out (just as they were not carried out in the past).”
What then is the meaning of these commandments? Is it God’s will that we are uncomfortable with, and therefore we find a way to evade it? Or does God, the Almighty, want us to evade it, and if so, why did He command it in the first place?
