Ah yes!!! So when Jesus said ”whom ye slew” He didn’t really mean ye but was using it for a whole group of people but then switched immediately and placed all the blame for past and future “blood of the righteous” on that specific “generation” alive at that time. Gotcha! That is totally bonkers. Maybe that works in your Philip theology but not so much in credible hermeneutics.

What’s really sad is that you think you have something to teach.

That is exactly what he did. Can you not understand his plain words? How about the words of Daniel's prayer while in captivity:

"O Lord, according to all thy righteousness, I beseech thee, let thine anger and thy fury be turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain: because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy people are become a reproach to all that are about us." (Daniel 9:16)

Daniel understood this warning from Leviticus:

"If they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, with their trespass which they trespassed against me, and that also they have walked contrary unto me; And that I also have walked contrary unto them, and have brought them into the land of their enemies; if then their uncircumcised hearts be humbled, and they then accept of the punishment of their iniquity: Then will I remember my covenant with Jacob, and also my covenant with Isaac, and also my covenant with Abraham will I remember; and I will remember the land." (Lev 26:40-42 KJV)

Do you now understand the concept that one generation of Israelites sometimes paid for their own sins, and the sins of their fathers?

This is truly sad.
