This one from Richard Rolle’s Commentary on the Ten Commandments:
“The Fifth commandment is that you kill no one, neither by plotting, nor by committing the deed, nor by ordering it or condoning it. And under this commandment, illegal striking of any person is also forbidden. There are spiritual murderers, those who refuse to feed the destitute in their need, those who slander others, and those who mislead the innocent.”
Okay, when did we forget this? Or have we merely limited “murder” to “First Degree Murder?”
