>omnibenevolent
That word doesn't appear in the bible. God has openly stated that he hated evil and wicked people who do not repent. God is incredibly righteous and holy more than you think so evil things might not seem that wrong from our perspective but from the perfect holiness of his point of view evil is incredibly bad and those who are evil deserve to be destroyed and die for daring to do something so wrong as being evil.

Sin is worse than you think and sinners are truly worthy of a horrible punishment. God has prepared a terrible ending for sinners since the beginning of time for the day of his judgement.

You have no idea how much do sinners and those who do evil deserve to suffer and how much in need of God's mercy and forgiveness you are.


God forgives those who turn away from evil and fear him until their last breath on earth. His mercy is still at hand, seek it while you can. Soon it will be too late.

Afterwards you will seek it and seek it and will not find it because will one day stop offering it to men.

Sounds benevolent to me.

Psalm 137 is a song written from the perspective of an Israelite imprisoned after the Babylonian exile that is being forced to entertain the Babylonians. The Israelite is expressing his rage at the Babylonians by saying that any Israelite would be happy to dash their babies against stones.

It has nothing to do with God being omnibenevolent, it's just an Israelite venting his frustrations at his enemies.

you're not supposed to take context into account unless the context supports a right wing talking point sweaty

>others are wrong because they hurt my feelings
The actual truth is that no side has any real reason to hurt any side or their own. That is the actual evil, and so is advocating for misery and consequence perpetual in any timescale or cicrumstance. In all truth we should relent from such views or we are but the ones we revile. But most are too dull of senses to pick up on that.

But is it not divinely inspired? So God approved the message.

Wait, according to Christians, perfect righteousness requires getting extremely angry at things that don't seem that bad? This explains a lot of their behavior.

Yes but the Bible is also a human document. In context the Psalmist is simply expressing his feelings, not giving revelation.

Is this one of the parts of the Bible that humans really like, and where the Holy Spirit and God elected to abide by the church fathers decision to canonize baby-smashing in Nicea, and instead disapprove silently?

Are there other such segments of the Bible that God doesnt really endorse but left in for populistic reasons?

Yes, and it's meant to be interpreted that way.
