"
seven year old, guns "
- Exodus 22:2, I understand, is neither authored by One G-d nor by Moses, please, right? It is the work of the priestly clergy, so not a reliable source of guidance for our deeds, right, please?
- Children are innocent/sinless, whatever they do is, one must say, as per the environment they live in and brought up and as per the thinking of their family/parents/society, it is for this that children are tried in special Juvenile Law, right, please?
- In my childhood I lived in villages which were still on the barter system, not only the children had no guns even the adults did not have them and they had little money to hoard, the only valuable were the Silver/Golden Jewellery. All family slept in the open place in the courtyard or the roof-tops in Summer, and in winter in a large central room and their beds(/charpais) were close by, except the married-ones in nearby small rooms and everybody was alert for some incident at a voice-call, even the neighbors would wake up at a call, so never heard any such happenings. What a beautiful life of the villages, one would agree, it remains always fresh in my memory, right, please!?
- Instead of the human- altered Scriptures, in secular matters, one must follow the Law of the Land one lives in, right, please.
One and only One G-d says and I quote here for guidance:
5:39
And
as for the man who steals and the woman who steals, cut off their hands in retribution of their offence as an exemplary punishment from Allah. And Allah is Mighty, Wise.
5:40
But whoso repents after his transgression and amends, then will Allah surely turn to him in mercy; verily, Allah is Most Forgiving, Merciful.
Holy Quran: Read, Listen and Search
Right?
Regards

"The name of Moses is not evidence for the exodus
As of today , the scholarly view on the existence of Moses is divided , while most scholars agree that the biblical narrative is probably false , some think that the name of Moses might prove the existence of a leader of the Israelites .
The reasoning behind this argument is based on the fact that the name of Moses is not Hebrew but Egyptian , which supports a narrative in which there is an Egyptian person named Moses who leads a small and non divine exodus .
My objection to this argument is pretty simple , a smart Hebrew author would realise that it would be more likely for Egyptian parents to name their kids with an Egyptian name , even if he is adopted like Moses ."

It's a common Egyptian court name, usually attached to a theophoric like Rah-moses (aka Ramses) or Thutmoses or Ahmoses.
The Hebrew etymology given for Moses' name "because he was drawn from the water" is somewhat nonsensical. Why would an Egyptian princess give the baby a Hebrew name? How would she even know Hebrew?
