I used TNIV but again this verse is just one of many.

In other words: "Sure I used a terribly inaccurate translation to support my point, but trust me, I've got plenty of other terribly inaccurate translations if that one didn't convince you!"

Jehovah's laws were very often evil by today's standards.

Today's standards are often intrinsically immoral, while the law of God is intrinsically just by definition.

Your statement is true, but only trivially.

I just used the first one I could find.

Surely you don't condone slavery, God did. Surely you don't condone keeping virgin girls as spoils of war; God did.

Jesus corrected this.
