God can violate his own directives. Thou shall not kill? Thou shall not commit adultery?

No seriously address the issue, don’t just make it up as you go along

“God can violate his own directives. Thou shall not kill? Thou shall not commit adultery?”

Not an ancient languages scholar myself, but I have it on good authority that the original is correctly translated as, “Don’t commit murder,” with implications that “murder” refers to the unjustified killing of a male member of one’s own tribe.
