Do read Maccabees to see the historical facts of what happened to the Idumeans.1)The Books of the Maccabees are not canonical scripture and were not written under the influence of Ruach HaQodesh. The Scriptural canon had already been closed by the 'Anshei-HaKenesset HaGedolah.
2)The Books of the Maccabees are part of the chrstian "old testament," and as all good chrstians know are not to be interpreted literally. They are poetic fugues of a primitive people who thought the earth was flat and that it was alright to kill Canaanites. Is this not so?

Say what you like, but I repeat what I said Do read Maccabees to see the historical facts of what happened to the Idumeans -- you don't have to take it as scriptural, but it is historical.
