Please explain to me which part of anachronism you fail to understand.
How can a timeless, unchanging and perfect God be an anachronism?
If God has existed as he is since the beginning of time, and he's had the same perfect moral code in place, your anachronism argument is simple nonsense.
Unless you are asserting that God would order genocide in this day and age, then it logically follows an unchanging being would never have ordered a genocide at any point in it's history.
Or, if your argument is based around the idea we hadn't invented the word or concept Genocide at that time, that's even more ridiculous. We are not prevented from labelling historical actions with certain words we create after the fact. Why would you even make such a pointless argument?
God ordered the mass slaughter of every living Amalekite. Given the definition of Genocide, the action fits the definition. Therefore it's a genocide. It's not a hard concept to grasp.
