Meaning of ten commandments :
Also called the Decalogue. It is the name given to the 10 laws or commands or words God gives through Moses to the people of Israel as the basis of their covenant with him (Exodus 20:2-17, Deuteronomy 5:6-21). They are traditionally divided into two groups: the first three focused on God (no other God, keep the Lord’s name holy, keep the Sabbath day holy), the last seven focused on relationship with others (honor father and mother, do not kill, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not lie, do not covet neighbor’s wife, do not covet neighbor’s goods). The Protestant version of these ten separates the first commandment into two separate ones (no other God, do not make graven images) and combines the last two into one.
