Ratsach
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ratsach is the Hebrew word used in the 6th commandment of the Ten Commandments. It has been translated in the bible as meaning 'kill', but in fact it is closer to murder. Though it has a broader meaning than murder, and can be used to include killing by negligence, as well as assassination, and being killed by a wild animal.
