Deuteronomy 5:17
You shall not murder.
BSB
ASV
Thou shalt not kill.
KJV
Thou shalt not kill.

Thou shalt not kill,.... The following commands begin with the copulative "and", different from the manner in which they are expressed, Exo 20:17 which joins these together, and them with the preceding ones; hence the law is by some said to be one copulative, and may serve to illustrate a passage in Jas 2:10.
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
