	Self-Defense and the Commandment “Thou shalt not kill” How is the commandment “Thou shalt not kill” expressed in the Holy Scripture and to what cases does it refer? Archimandrite Ruben Zargaryan comments.
	The Right to Life: "Thou shalt not kill" The most famous saying of the Ten Commandments is: Thou shalt not kill. It enshrines the right to life of man. This limits the right of man to kill, to take the life of another. It is a duty so that your life is also protected. In other words, do not kill, so that you are not killed too. Here the right-duty relationship is visible. How can the commandment "Thou shalt not kill" define our rights and duties? Archimandrite Ruben Zargaryan comments.
	The right to life: "suicide and self-sacrifice" In the Christian understanding, life does not belong to anyone, since the source of life is God, therefore, encroachment on the life of another is a gross violation of the commandment “Thou shalt not kill,” but encroachment on one’s own life is also a gross violation. Why does Jesus say that blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is the unforgivable sin among all kinds of sins, and how is it equivalent to choosing death by suicide? Archimandrite Ruben Zargaryan comments.
