What did you say?Originally posted by Vesayen
It is "You will not murder" not "You will not kill". The definition, at it's most basic is killing is morally wrong and murder is not.

IIRC in Judges there is a passage about a traveler who stays the night at an inn. The host threatens to take liberties with the man, but instead takes a female servant (or was it a daughter) instead. The girl dies the next day. The man gathers his kin and they punish (eradicate) the perpetrator and his tribe. I'm not sure what name the Jews give to the book of Judges , nor whether the events took place before of after the Babylonian exile, but this passage would indicate that the Jews of the time did consider killing a female of low status to be a capital crime.Originally posted by lord of the mark
actually the notion of resolving disputes, including blood feuds, by monetary compensation IS Jewish law, IIUC. And is seen by some authorities as an advance over the code of Hammurabi. What im not familiar with is the claim that this was differentiated by gender in the Hebrew code. But then this is hardly my area of expertise."I say shoot'em all and let God sort it out in the end!Comment
