So you have just called all Jews non-serious Bible students. Bzzzzzt. Again you are another who wishes to ignore what it says in the Bible because it sounds exactly like the Koran and other works which had violent admonitions to followers.

Jews, as a people, don't study the Bible because the Bible includes the New Testament, which the Jews, in the main, do not accept. The Jews, of course, do study the Old Testament writings, which comprise just Part I of the Bible (i.e. the old context). Those (Messianic) Jews which do study the Bible (Old & New Testaments) accept the New Testament, and thus, it's claim that we have passed from the Old to the New.

And your response doesn't change that the violent parts of the Bible which make up the foundation of the Christian faith exist. Just because you want to ignore them or pretend they are not almost identical to the same kinds of violent admonitions that exist in the Koran won't make them go away, nor does calling the portion of the Bible in which they exist the Torah or the Old Testament make them any less real.
