Thou Shalt Slaughter: Hitler Wrote His Own Bible Commandments
The Daily Record ^ | August 8, 2006 | Mark Ellis

Posted on 08/12/2006 5:22:15 PM PDT by Zack Nguyen

A BIBLE featuring Adolf Hitler's version of the Ten Commandments has been discovered.

The dictator ordered the book rewritten to remove all references to lews.

In the Nazi bible, found in a German church, the regime who stole, murdered and plundered their way across Europe scrapped the likes of Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal and Thou shalt not covet your neighbour's wife.

And Hitler got his theorists to alter the Commandments - and add two more - in a bid to further the Aryan ideal for the book Germans With God.

New "Commandments" included Honour your Fuhrer and your master, Avoid all hypocrisy, and Keep the blood pure and your honour holy.

The book, printed in 1941 and sent thousands of churches, was meant to be essential reading in every home in Nazi Germany alongside Hitler's autobiography, Mein Kampf.

Hitler hated the church's teachings, believing they had no place in his vision of Germanic supermen ruling lesser races devoid of "outdated" concepts such as mercy and love.

But he knew the power of the church in Germany and couldn't banish it overnight. Instead, his plan was to gradually "Nazify" the church, beginning with a theological centre he set up in 1939 to rewrite the Bible.

He appointed professors to work on the Nazi version and remove all references to Jews and compassion.

But more important for Hitler was the eradication of Jewish words, including Hallelujah, Jehovah and even Jerusalem, which became "the eternal city of God".

Hitler, in a memo, said: "The book will have to serve the fight against the immortal Jewish enemy."

Christians are believed to have destroyed most copies.

Such an outrageous attempt by the state to co-opt the church seems almost laughable today, but I suspect that at the time nobody was laughing. Christians should always be on guard for attempts by the state to take over the Church.

I especially like how Hitler made certain that "Thou Shalt Not Covet Thy Neighbors Wife" got the axe.

If Hitler wanted a Bible free of any references to Jews, it must have been a pretty slim volume.

More problems result from the State interfering with religious matters than from religion interfering with the state matters. The state will use religion to justify actions that the state can't justify on its own authority.

What is a lew? I must be losing my mind. I thought it saw "lews" and then I looked again and it said, "Jews" and then I looked again and it said "lews." I must be losing my mind!

Well, if the Daily Record says so, it must be true.

Hitler's Nazi "Bible" is sure to become a best seller in the Muslim world. Anti-Semites of a feather, hate together.

Hitler consciously set about creating a "Messiah" image for himself, beginning with the Leni Riefenstahl movie as a template for replacing Jesus Christ with der Fuhrer and the Body of Christ with the German Volk.

Insolent and incompetet observers like Clinton, who identify Hitler and the Nazis as a form of Christians, do violence to truth and history, and reveal their hatred for Christians generally.

Arabs have been pro-Nazi since the 1930's: the Germans hate Jews? Well so do I.

Germans are white. Therefore, if I hate Jews, I must be white, too. Kind of cool.

Hey, I like yours, too. They're kind of similar. Maybe we're long lost cousins. :-)

Well, I could have sworn the word "lews" morphed into "Jews" and then back to "lews" again in the article. Maybe the thread is possessed.

Odd, I tried to post a few minutes ago and the thread was pulled too. Now it's not. Not sure why the Admin changed his mind. That's good - I've never had a posted article pulled before.

If the article is inaccurate, I'll be happy to see it pulled. But it does sound like Hitler, does it not?

Hitler hijacked Christian imagery in his bid to be a G-d.
