The Massacre of the Innocents was prophesied in Jeremiah 31:15; however, the Innocents were not massacred to save our Lord, they were massacred because Herod wanted to kill our Lord. The Holy Innocents have traditionally been seen as the first Christian martyrs; however, their martyrdom does not imply that God condoned it.

The Bible records a lot of things that were done that were wrong.

That doesn't condone or justify it or sin.

It's a record of actions that happened, not an endorsement of them.
