Primary Verses:
-
Deut. 20:19-20
-
"When thou shalt besiege a city
a long time, in making war against it to take it,
thou shalt not
destroy the trees thereof by forcing an axe against
them: for thou mayest eat of them, and
thou shalt not cut them down (for the tree of the field
is man's life) to employ them in the siege: Only the
trees which thou knowest that they be not trees for
meat, thou shalt destroy and cut them down; and thou
shalt build bulwarks against the city that maketh war
with thee, until it be subdued."
