No, the Torah forbids murder. Although murder is a form of killing, not all killing is a form of murder. The Torah actually specifies that if someone attempts to kill you without reason (murder), you are required to kill them in self-defense if there's no other way to stop them.

Can woman read from the Torah?
The answer to this question depends upon which branch of Judaism you belong to. The Reform branch not only allows woman to read from the Torah, it even has female rabbis.

I recommend it.
