Had an unfortunately atheistic friend attempt a gotcha citing Numbers 31:1-18 proclaiming God to be cruel and immoral. Also he's inferring that the Israelites kept female children as sex slaves using verse 18 in particular, which is utter nonsense.
This was punishment upon the Midians for sensing Moabite women to tempt the Israelites into fornication in Numbers 25, and this is not the first time God has used the Israelites as a tool to deliver his divine punishment (see: slaughter of the Canaanites). I would appreciate further help in elaborating on this miniature apologetic, however.
