''Thou shalt not kill.'' A law couldn't be formatted simpler. But does the law actually say what it says or is the ''killing'' under question of a highly specific nature? * +

For instance can the law be used to push against capital punishment? To argue against eating animals? Military service (like JWs do)? Euthanasia? Suicide? Killing in self-defense? What killing is the killing in question? * +

The man who penned down the law led many wars, so I doubt it refers to war. The society which codified the law had capital punishment. The suicide of Samson is spoken of as a heroic sacrificial act (akin to the modern suicide bomber). Animals were killed for food.. And for other less productive purposes, like Samson burning 300 foxes in philistine fields. Killing when you're convinced God wants you to was also OK. What killing is killing? * +
