Actually, the commandment properly translated (so I understand) is "Thou
shalt not murder." Killing in God's name is permissible (and
encouraged), and there are other circumstances where people are commanded
to kill (stoning, but just not quite to death? No, stonings are supposed
to end up with someone dead - an adulterer, for example).
