What does the word KILL mean in the Bible?
One of the shortest and most simple of the Ten Commandments is "You shall not kill". "You shall not kill" is indeed pretty simple. Any questions?Well of course there are questions. Even Dirty Harry said "some people need killing." Killing is what the religions of "the Book" do best when push comes to shove. Both say "You shall not kill," and yet both kill, often and with great enthusiasm at times. Actually all religions that have exclusive ownership of the Deity's truth are killers when they just have to be to get the Gospel spread. What "You shall not kill," tends to mean is "each other," but that also proves, in fact, to be a joke.AnswerIn the Ten Statements, there is the statement "Thou shall not murder". It does not say kill, that is a mistranslation. The word 'kill' means the same thing in the Bible that it does in today's language. According to the Tanach (Jewish Bible), murder is an unjustified form of killing. However, the Tanach also specifies that killing in self-defense when you are being attacked without warrant or in defense of an innocent is allowed and is not considered murder.
