[Uri’el-2012]

War itself is immoral because it violated
God’s commandment “Thou Shalt Not Kill”.

I don't find that anywhere in YHvH's commandments: :

NAU Exodus 20:13 "You shall not murder.

NAU Deuteronomy 5:17 'You shall not murder.

Other references are
Exod. 20:13; Deut. 5:17; Ps. 62:3; 94:6; Jer. 7:9; Hos. 4:2; 6:9; Matt. 5:21; 19:18; Mk. 10:19; 15:7; Lk. 18:20; 23:19, 25; Acts 9:1; Rom. 1:29; 13:9; Jas. 2:11; 4:2

You’ll find it in the Ten Commandments as number six.

While it is common to render “kill” to mean “murder” in order to provide justification the the times when humans do kill humans (war, capital punishment, self defense), Jesus makes the meaning plain in His Sermon on the Mount, Matt 5:21-22

“Thou shalt not kill” means “Thou shalt not kill”. When we do we are in violation of God’s law.
