Question
Hello, were the Children of Israel commanded upon entering the land to kill all the inhabitants of Canaan, or were those who accepted upon themselves the seven Noahide laws allowed to remain?
Answer
Hello,
If they accepted the seven commandments, and also agreed to serve the Children of Israel and pay them tribute, they were not killed.
However, merely accepting the commandments was not sufficient.
