:I don't know if the title in question makes that assertion, but that particular passage is part of the [[Ten Commandments|decalogue]] and not attributed to a saying of Jesus Christ. However, [[Christianity]] maintains that the decalogue was given by God and Christ was also God, so Tolstoy may have been making his statement in that context. Regardless, I think you are correct in that some reference should be made to the origin of the concept of [[Ten_Commandments#Killing_or_murder|'thou shalt not murder.']] [[User:66.191.19.183|66.191.19.183]] 23:55, 8 November 2007 (UTC) |

This is the terxt of a lecture by Tolstoy. If it didn't have a pentecostal resonance, it wouldn't be noticed. Wetman 22:09, 20 Dec 2003 (UTC)
This sentence is unclear to me: In it, Tolstoy speaks of the doctrine of nonresistance as the reply to violence propounded by Jesus. It can read either as: reply to violence, which was propounded by Jesus or: doctrine of nonresistance, ..., which was propounded by Jesus. Greenman 14:54, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
Wikisource addition
Does anyone have the skill to add this book [1] to wikisource? I believe Tolstoy left all his work to public domain on his death. --nirvana2013 20:05, 4 September 2005 (UTC)

Accuracy?
This article seems to attribute the commandment "Thou shalt not kill" to Jesus Christ. Maybe some cleanup is in order? Smithfarm 12:16, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
- I don't know if the title in question makes that assertion, but that particular passage is part of the decalogue and not attributed to a saying of Jesus Christ. However, Christianity maintains that the decalogue was given by God and Christ was also God, so Tolstoy may have been making his statement in that context.
