.KILL. To cause someone to die; to put to death. One of the ten commandments is "thou shalt not kill" (Ex. 20:13). The Hebrew word translated "kill" in Ex. 20:13, ratsach, is translated "murder" 14 times (Nu. 35:16, 17, 18, 19, 21, 30, 31; 1 Ki. 6:32; Job 24:14; Ps. 94:6; Is. 1:21; Je. 7:9; Ho. 6:9) and "slayer" 17 times (Nu. 35:11, 25, 26, 27, 28; De. 4:42; 19:3, 4, 6; Jos. 20:3, 5-6; 21:13, 21, 27, 32, 38).

Bible Truths about Murder and Killing: (1) Murder and slaying are not always the same (Nu. 35:15-25). There are at least four occasions in the Bible when killing is not murder: Accidental death (Nu. 35:20-23). Self Defense (Ex. 22:2-3). Military service and law enforcement. It is not murder to kill a person in the line of duty in law enforcement and in the military (Ro. 13:1-4). Capital punishment. The law of Moses called for capital punishment in the case of murder (Le. 24:17; De. 19:11-13), idolatry (Le. 20:2; De. 17:2-7), witchcraft (Le. 20:27), adultery (Le. 20:10; De. 22:21, 22), homosexuality (Le. 20:13), bestiality (Le. 20:15, 16), rape (De. 22:25-27), incest (Le. 20:17), and blasphemy (Le. 24:11-16, 23). The avenger of death in O.T. times was a relative or friend who put the murderer to death (De. 19:11-13 ). God allowed for this, and made provision for cities of refuge for those who had killed someone accidentally. In the New Testament dispensation, God has given civil government the authority to put offenders to death. In Romans 13:4 we see that God has given nations the authority to "bear the sword" against evil.
