The Christian alt-right is highly hypocritical in that they will reference the Talmud to accuse Jews of pedophilia, but when the same Tamud proclaims their own prophets such as Moses and Joshua as pedophiles they reject these claims, even though it is Jews who wrote the Torah and these acts of pedophilia are agreed upon by Hebrew and Jewish scholars. According to the Alt-Right pedophilia is only a Gay disease, they become hateful when you point out the fact that their own patriarchs practiced child marriage and rape.
There are many instances in the Bible when Israelites were instructed by their prophets, such as Moses and Joshua, to enter pagan nations and slaughter all the adult men and women, but take the virgin “young girls” for themselves as slaves. In Numbers 31:13-18, Moses has just conquered the pagan Midianites and instructs his soldiers to kill all but the young girls who the soldiers may keep for themselves. In Judges 21, the tribe of Benjamin is unable to find enough wives, so Moses’ successor Joshua sends an army to Jabesh-gilead to kill all the adults and take the virgins. When the tribe realizes they still don’t have enough girls, Joshua sends them out to ambush the girls of Shiloh. There is only one stipulation, the young girls who are taken as captives must be virgins.
The Jewish Talmud (oral traditions surrounding the Torah) book of Yebamouth 60b provides the method by which Jews were to detect virginity in their captives; any girl who failed this test was slaughtered with the rest of her family The Talmud proclaims that these virgins who were tested for virginity and were ready for marriage were under the age of three. In Yebamouth 60b we learn Joshua did not follow the correct procedure for detecting virginity in his captive slave girls when he forced them to insert bottles of wine into their vaginas… there was, of course, an even less scientific (though be it less barbaric) Talmudic procedure for detecting virginity in the infants.
In Numbers 31:13-18, Moses has just conquered the pagan Midianites and instructs his soldiers to kill all but the young girls who the soldiers may keep for themselves.
“13 Moses and Eleazar the priest and all the chiefs of the congregation went to meet them outside the camp. 14 And Moses was angry with the officers of the army, the commanders of thousands and the commanders of hundreds, who had come from service in the war.15 Moses said to them, “Have you let all the women live? 16 Behold, these, on Balaam’s advice, caused the people of Israel to act treacherously against the Lord in the incident ofPeor, and so the plague came among the congregation of the Lord. 17 Now therefore, kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known man by lying with him. 18 But all the young girls who have not known man by lying with him keep alive for yourselves.” (Numbers 31:13-18)
In Judges 21, the Jewish tribe of Benjamin is unable to find enough wives, so Moses’ successor Joshua sends an army to Jabesh-gilead to kill all the adults and take the virgins. When the tribe realizes they still don’t have enough girls, Joshua sends them out to ambush the girls of Shiloh
6 And the people of Israel had compassion for Benjamin their brother and said, “One tribe is cut off from Israel this day. 7 What shall we do for wives for those who are left, since we have sworn by the Lord that we will not give them any of our daughters for wives?” 8 And they said, “What one is there of the tribes of Israel that did not come up to the Lordto Mizpah?” And behold, no one had come to the camp from Jabesh-gilead, to the assembly.9 For when the people were mustered, behold, not one of the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead was there. 10 So the congregation sent 12,000 of their bravest men there and commanded them, “Go and strike the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead with the edge of the sword; also the women and the little ones. 11 This is what you shall do: every male and every woman that has lain with a male you shall devote to destruction.” 12 And they found among the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead 400 young virgins who had not known a man by lying with him, and they brought them to the camp at Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan. 13 Then the whole congregation sent word to the people of Benjamin who were at the rock of Rimmon and proclaimed peace to them. 14 And Benjamin returned at that time. And they gave them the women whom they had saved alive of the women of Jabesh-gilead, but they were not enough for them. 15 And the people had compassion on Benjamin because the Lordhad made a breach in the tribes of Israel. 16 Then the elders of the congregation said, “What shall we do for wives for those who are left, since the women are destroyed out of Benjamin?” 17 And they said, “There must be an inheritance for the survivors of Benjamin, that a tribe not be blotted out from Israel. 18 Yet we cannot give them wives from our daughters.” For the people of Israel had sworn, “Cursed be he who gives a wife to Benjamin.” 19 So they said, “Behold, there is the yearly feast of the Lord at Shiloh, which is north of Bethel, on the east of the highway that goes up from Bethel to Shechem, and south of Lebonah.” 20 And they commanded the people of Benjamin, saying, “Go and lie in ambush in the vineyards 21 and watch. If the daughters of Shiloh come out to dance in the dances, then come out of the vineyards and snatch each man his wife from the daughters of Shiloh, and go to the land of Benjamin. 22 And when their fathers or their brothers come to complain to us, we will say to them, ‘Grant them graciously to us, because we did not take for each man of them his wife in battle, neither did you give them to them, else you would now be guilty.’” 23 And the people of Benjamin did so and took their wives, according to their number, from the dancers whom they carried off. Then they went and returned to their inheritance and rebuilt the towns and lived in them. 24 And the people of Israel departed from there at that time, every man to his tribe and family, and they went out from there every man to his inheritance. (Judges 21)
Detecting virginity in infant slave girls by inserting bottles of wine
And they found among the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead four hundred young virgins, that had not known man by lying with him; whence did they know it? R. Kahana replied: They made them sit upon the mouth of a wine-cask. [Through anyone who had] had previous intercourse, the odour penetrated; through a virgin, its odour did not penetrate. They should have been made to pass before the frontplate! - Yebamoth 60bThe law stipulates that the girls were to be passed before a “frontplate”, the gold plate which was worn by the High Priest on his forehead; if the face of the young girl turned pale it was known that she was a virgin and fit for cohabitation; if it did not turn pale it was known that she was not a virgin and therefore unfit for cohabitation… because according to the Talmud “dropsy is a manifestation of lewdness.” - Yebamoth 60b
Although the usual age for marriage to girls is three years old, these captive girls may be married to Jewish Priests at an even younger age than this…
It was taught: R. Simeon b. Yohai stated: A proselyte who is under the age of three years and one day is permitted to marry a priest, for it is said, But all the women children that have not known man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves, and Phinehas surely was with them. And the Rabbis?16 — [These were kept alive] as bondmen and bondwomen. If so, a proselyte whose age is three years and one day should also be permitted! - Yebamoth 60b
