Jeremy I believe you answered the question in another discussion why God seemed evil by punishing other nations i prefer the word you used which is judgement.God weighs up the hearts and then judges fairly thats not evil in fact he weighs up all the factors before he makes his decision and his decisions are perfect and wise.When he commanded Israel to wipe out other nations it was Gods judgement on these nations because of the evil they had committed in alot of ways its exaggerated because they did nt have Christ to shield them like we have if anything it shows how merciful God is towards us today.In those days gods judgement was quick and immediate.What happened to Israel when they broke the laws God gave them they immediately fell into judgement often resulting in many deaths to there own people until the sins of the people were dwelt with.So even for Gods people it was a conditional on there attitude and actions towards God.Again we see God is merciful to these previous nations that were destroyed as Christ after his crucifiction went and preached to them giving them the opportunity to repent so again we see God is still merciful.His word is true The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness.
