When I mentioned that I wondered about the translation is because I wonder if they are using the word evil to define destruction.
In the Root of Evil reasoning I said,
------------------
we have been given the ability to build and destroy. These abilities are not evil, but are there to promote Life. What is evil is when building and destroying get out of balance and work against Life, so things are built that shouldn't be built and things are destroyed that shouldn't be destroyed. Jah doesn't want I and I to only do good because we have no choice. Jah is developing a Perfect Creation that will choose righteousness, not because they were programmed to choose righteousness, but because they have risen up within themself and have chosen good over evil.
------------------
In the verse from the Bible that I put up before, the Creator was going to destroy Israel for their wickedness, but then decided not to do it after Moses pleaded with Him. So it looks like when evil was written, it maybe should have been destruction.
So if a person considers the definition of evil as any destruction, or similar things that occur, then they could say that God did evil. But if they define evil as I do, where "evil is when building and destroying get out of balance and work against Life", then I would say the the Creator will never do that, because whatever the Creator destroys, is for the Itinueing of the Life.
