In the commandment, thou shalt not kill, the word translated "kill" is "ratsach". In order to understand Moses' intent in writing the commandment, let us examine how Moses used the word in other scripture.
Moses used the word Ratsach in Deuteronomy 4:42. If murder and ratsach are the same thing, we should be able to use them interchangeably. Let's substitute MURDER for ratsach in this scripture.
"That the slayer might flee thither, which should MURDER his neighbor UNAWARES, and HATED HIM NOT, in times past and that fleeing unto one of these cities he might live".
Clearly, murder cannot be substituted for ratsach, in this case, for murder is not committed unawares, or in the absence of hatred. Moses is describing negligent homicide or accidental death. The word Ratsach is clearly used by Moses to mean the taking of life, whether of the innocent or the guilty, whether intentional or unintentional.

Which of the Ten Commandments is most misunderstood?
Many (if not all) of the Ten Commandments are misunderstood.For years, the English translation "Thou shalt not kill" prevented many Christians from fighting as soldiers in wars. The correct Jewish translation is "Thou shalt not murder" which allow for the killing of enemy combatants during a "just" war. Considering that God commanded Joshua and the Hebrew to kill all the people of Jericho would itself break the law if killing was not allowed.In the Sermon on the Mount in book of Matthew chapter 5, people were reminded that committing adultery was committed even if one looks lustfully at a women.Likewise, there is much confusion of observation of the Sabbath for Christians.
