I will watch your video if you give a brief summary and explain why it is relevant, at this point it looks like a complete non sequitur.
You don't need that. Man is not God's judge.
All you need is your common sense and an unprejudiced acquaintance with the OT to know that God always determines who is fit to reproduce and who isn't. He's the only one who's All Knowing.
He could have all kinds of reasons for his determination. Genetic, physical, psychological, etc.
You try proving those people killed weren't all degenerate psychopaths.
All anybody has to go on it is God's Word.
Being barren in the OT was a sign of the lack of God's favor. For a woman it was almost as bad as being a leper (a social outcast). Look at the bondwoman Hagar ragging on (mocking) her lady, Sarah, because she had a son and Sarah didn't.
Many women called on the Lord for help in bearing children in the OT. One woman, David's wife Tamar, that berated God was left barren.
There are even women today having trouble having kids that are known to call on the Lord and sometimes they're answered in the affirmative and given children. I know a lady who did that and she had 2 kids that are practically golden. One of them graduated a year early from H.S. and was valedictorian and already has a medical school scholarship before he even starts undergrad school. The other one's about to go into the Junior Olympics for track.
