Commentary

 

Fifth commandment

  

In Exodus 20:13 and Deuteronomy 5:17, this signifies in the spiritual sense to shun all modes of killing and destroying the souls of men. (True Christian Religion 310) In the celestial sense to kill means to be rashly angry against the Lord, to hate Him, and wish to blot out His name. (True Christian Religion 311)
