Tell that to Catholics, whose Sixth Commandment reads "You Shall Not Kill." |
No problem, as Catholics aren't the authority on the Bible. Even the Jews (who predate the Catholics) have it as murder which I think would be more important than the Catholics taking an improper translation of the original language. Not only that, but the Catholics then used Catechisms to note which types of kills are ok, and which aren't. If the correct translation was kill, then we would have immediate problems with the Bible due to God instructing his people to put murders to death which would be against the 6th commandment.
There are a lot of things that I believe the Catholics have messed up, but this is neither the time nor place to address those issues. If you wanted a specific and improper interpretation of the 10 commandments you should have asked of it.
