    Depends on the print, and what the pastor says. I was raised Catholic, “Thou shall not kill” was the 5th. I understand in the Jewish commandments it’s “murder”. And probably other prints, too.

      It’s clearly meant to be ‘murder’, though. The old testament talks several times about capital punishment in the vein of ‘those who commit sin X should be stoned to death’, and it’s perfectly fine with war, too.
