I alway find it surprising that Christians are in general unaware of the murderous, genocidal, sexual deviant, revengeful passages in the old testament. Here are a few you can do your own research....
Exodus 32:27 writes:
Then he said to them, "This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: 'Each man strap a sword to his side. Go back and forth through the camp from one end to the other,
each killing his brother and friend and neighbor.' " 28 The Levites did as Moses commanded, and that day about three thousand of the people died.
Numbers 31 writes:
Now therefore
kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him,
keep alive for yourselves.
Deuteronomy 20:10 writes:
As you approach a town to attack it, first offer its people terms for peace. If they accept your terms and open the gates to you, then
all the people inside will serve you in forced labor. But if they refuse to make peace and prepare to fight, you must attack the town. When the LORD your God hands it over to you,
kill every man in the town. But you may
keep for yourselves all the women, children, livestock, and other plunder. You may enjoy the spoils of your enemies that the LORD your God has given you.
Deuteronomy 32:41 writes:
If I whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment;
I will render vengeance to mine enemies, and will reward them that hate me.
I will make
mine arrows drunk with blood, and my
sword shall devour flesh; and that with the blood of the slain and of the captives, from the beginning of revenges upon the enemy.
Judges 14:19 in reference to Samson writes:
And the
Spirit of the LORD came upon him, and he went down to Ashkelon, and
slew thirty men of them, and took their spoil, and gave change of garments unto them which expounded the riddle. And his anger was kindled, and he went up to his father's house.
There is more much more if one looks.
