Have you heard of the Ten Commandments in the Bible? One of them is often translated "thou shalt not kill." The original Hebrew word in this commandment is ratzah, which is specifically "murder." In English, murder is defined as unlawfully killing a person, as a result of a plan. Yet we know that not all human laws are not moral. There are differing opinions around the world about the lawfulness and morality of capital punishment, abortion, war, and other practices that result in death.
