Answer 2

The very first of the 10 Commandments in Judaism is not a commandment. It is a statement, '' am the Lord your G-d who has brought you out of the land of Egypt''. The the whole series is a little different than the Christian one-still getting the 10.

Answer 3

Don't forget the version of the ten commandments from Exodus 34. There are actually three sets of ten commandments in the bible, all different.

Answer 4

There are actually three versions of the Ten Commandments, Jewish, Catholic (and Lutheran), and Protestant taken from Exodus Chapter 20:1-17 and Deuteronomy Chapter 5:6-21.

With the new revelations of Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit in the early Catholic Church, a slightly different emphasis was placed on different commandments.

Then 1500 years later, the Protestant in objecting to certain Catholic practices, once again changed the emphasis of the Ten Commandments.

Answer 8

I gave you a website to show you and it has a lot of good info on it. If you look at the 10 commandments you'll see that the 1st 4 verses pertain to your relationship with God, and the last 6 verses pertain to your fellow man.
1 "I am the LORD your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of slavery. Thou shalt have no other gods before Me..."
This commandment is to believe in the existence of God and His influence on events in the world, and that the goal of the redemption from Egypt was to become His servants (Rashi). It prohibits belief in or worship of any additional deities.
2 "Do not make a sculpted image or any likeness of what is in the heavens above..."
This prohibits the construction or fashioning of "idols" in the likeness of created things (beasts, fish, birds, people) and worshipping them.
3 "Thou shalt not swear falsely by the name of the LORD..."
This commandment is to never take the name of God in a vain, pointless or insincere oath.[21]
4 "Remember [zachor] the Sabbath day and keep it holy" (the version in Deuteronomy reads shamor, "observe")
The seventh day of the week is termed Shabbat and is holy, just as God ceased creative activity during Creation. The aspect of zachor is performed by declaring the greatness of the day (kiddush), by having three festive meals, and by engaging in Torah study and pleasurable activities. The aspect of shamor is performed by abstaining from productive activity (39 melachot) on the Shabbat.
5 "Thou shalt honor your father and your mother..."
The obligation to honor one's parents is an obligation that one owes to God and fulfills this obligation through one's actions towards one's parents.
6 "Thou shalt not murder"
Killing an innocent human being is a capital sin.[22]
7 "Thou shalt not commit adultery."
Adultery is defined as sexual intercourse between a man and a married woman who is not his wife.[21]
8 "Thou shalt not steal."
This is not understood as stealing in the conventional sense, since theft of property is forbidden elsewhere and is not a capital offense. In this context it is to be taken as "do not kidnap."[21]
9 "Thou shalt not bear false witness against your neighbor"
One must not bear false witness in a court of law or other proceeding.
10 "Thou shalt not covet your neighbor's house..."
One is forbidden to desire and plan how one may obtain that which God has given to another. Maimonides makes a distinction in codifying the laws between the instruction given here in Exodus (You shall not covet) and that given in Deuteronomy (You shall not desire), according to which one does not violate the Exodus commandment unless there is a physical action associated with the desire, even if this is legally purchasing an envied object.

Answer 9

You should look into this link, because there's actually a variation between different religious doctrines.

The Jewish and Protestant alignment is different than the Catholic and Lutheran order.

Have a nice day...
