KIRBY:

so, murder defined by the bible means:

killing someone using an iron pole.

killing somone using a stone in the hand

killing someone with a stick

avenging a killing (avenger of blood)

killing somone out of hatred

killing somone with your hands, out of hatred

ok, so if i kill a stranger using say, a length of rope by strangling them, i haven't murdered? or if i kill the same person using any other instrument not mentioned above...

or perhaps i've missed the point entirely...
