| Christians believe: The Commandments |
Then God spoke all these words: I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of
Egypt, out of the house of slavery; you shall have no other gods before me. You shall not make
for yourself an idol, whether in the form of anything that is in heaven above, or that is on the earth
beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. You shall not bow down to them or worship them;
for I the LORD your God am a jealous God, punishing children for the iniquity of parents, to the
third and the fourth generation of those who reject me, but showing steadfast love to the
thousandth generation of those who love me and keep my commandments. You shall not make
wrongful use of the name of the LORD your God, for the LORD will not acquit anyone who
misuses his name. Remember the sabbath day, and keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do
all your work. But the seventh day is a sabbath to the LORD your God; you shall not do any
work—you, your son or your daughter, your male or female slave, your livestock, or the alien
resident in your towns. For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is
in them, but rested the seventh day; therefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day and
consecrated
Honor your father and your mother, so that your days may be long in the land that the LORD your
God is giving you. You shall not murder. You shall not commit adultery. You shall not steal. You
shall not bear false witness against your neighbor. You shall not covet your neighbor’s house;
you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or male or female slave, or ox, or donkey, or anything
that belongs to your neighbor.

| The Old Testament Commandments The Old Testament: Exodus 20: 1-17 |
And one of them, a lawyer, asked him a question to test him. ‘Teacher, which commandment in the
law is the greatest?’ He said to him, ‘”You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with
all your soul, and with all your mind.” This is the greatest and first commandment. And a second is
like it: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” On these two commandments hang all the law
and the prophets.’
