Question: What does the Bible say about the act of suicide? Is it murder? Is it something that will condemn a soul to eternity apart from God? Answer: I searched for the word suicide in the KJV, NASB and RSV. In every case the results were the same: "Your search query for 'suicide' did not return any results. Please modify your search query and try again." However, the Bible records the acts of suicide of at least four people: Samson, Saul, Saul's armor-bearer, and Judas. I have stated bare facts. No interpretation, no conclusion, no speculation. |

JVH0212 ... Add Abimelech (Jud. 9:54) who had armor-bearer assisted suicide, Ahithopel (2Sa. 17:23) and Zimri (1Ki. 16:18). I have a book of lists. We both missed "Is it something that will condemn a soul to eternity apart from God?" which may asking if it is the unpardonable sin. Seraching Scripture Steve |

Steve: Thank you very much for the additional info on suicides in the Bible. I never knew that before. I didn't want to say for sure there were only 4 suicides in the Bible. So I carefully worded my reply to say "*at least* four." I will add your information to my list of suicides in the Bible. Sounds like your book of lists is a good source. Thanks again for sharing that with us. You're right. I deliberately stuck to bare facts and missed the other question that you mention. I wanted to avoid any subsequent controversy that may result from answering that question. --JVH0212 |
