definitely have no interest in making this a protracted biblical debate here, particularly because many of these are stories / allegories, etc. But you do realize the third quote is the famous binding of Issac where the entire point was that God didn't actually want him to do it? The second quote is about Amalek a nation [factual or not] at least within the Biblical narrative who performed a "sneak attack" on the Jews.
