THE DECALOGUE








God himself has said he wrote his law, and therefore it is the law of God (Ex 20.1, Deut 4.12-23).

 

The first four commandments provide duty of man towards his Creator:

I. Prohibition of worshipping something what God created and worship one God.

II. Prohibition of the worship of images-the works of human hands - instead of reverence for God.

III. Demand respect and reverence for God.

IV. use of time: six days for work and seventh (Saturday) rest and worship the creator.

The remaining six commandments define the duty of man to man:

V. Duty of children to their parents (as well as to the authorities and to the authorities).

VI. protection of life.

VII. Family Fun.

VIII. protection of property.

IX. the prohibition to speak a lie.

X. Prohibition of envy (wish the middle).

 

The first four commandments based on the love of God, and the last six in the love of one's neighbor.

 

One copy of the law remained in the Ark in the earthly Sanctuary (Deut 10.1-5).

The original law is preserved in the Temple of heaven. "And then the Temple of God in heaven,
and then the Ark of the Covenant" (Rev 11.19).

The ten commandments should learn by heart (Deut 6.6).
