And one of them is simply "you shall not murder", but... but... what did god do with all the plagues he sent down on Egypt, particularly the one with all the firstborns, if not murdering?
What sort of moral authority does such a being have to tell his "children" not to murder when that's exactly what he did a couple of pages back?!
He's just calling them back. The definition of murder would be "kill someone without God's approval". Problem solved.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
