Commandments


   Deut 10:12-14,17-20  And now, Israel, what does the LORD your 
   God require of you, but to fear the LORD your God, to walk in 
   all His ways and to love Him, to serve the LORD your God with 
   all your heart and with all your soul, and to keep the 
   commandments of the LORD and His statutes which I command you 
   today for your good?  Indeed heaven and the highest 
   heavens belong to the LORD your God, also the earth with all 
   that is in it.  {17} For the LORD your God is God of gods and 
   Lord of lords, the great God, mighty and awesome, who shows no 
   partiality nor takes a bribe. He administers justice for 
   the fatherless and the widow, and loves the stranger, giving 
   him food and clothing. Therefore love the stranger, for 
   you were strangers in the land of Egypt.  You shall fear 
   the LORD your God; you shall serve Him, and to Him you shall 
   hold fast, and take oaths in His name. 



   Deut. 6:1-2,6-9   Now this is the commandment, and these are 
   the statutes and judgments which the LORD your God has 
   commanded to teach you, that you may observe them in the land 
   which you are crossing over to possess, that you may fear the 
   LORD your God, to keep all His statutes and His commandments 
   which I command you, you and your son and your grandson, all 
   the days of your life, and that your days may be prolonged. You 
   shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your 
   soul, and with all your strength. And these words which I 
   command you today shall be in your heart. You shall teach them 
   diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you 
   sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, 
   and when you rise up. You shall bind them as a sign on your 
   hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. You 
   shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your 
   gates. 

                                               


   Lev 19:2-4   You shall be holy, for I the LORD your God am 
   holy. {3} Every one of you shall revere his mother and his 
   father, and keep My Sabbaths: I am the LORD your God. {4} Do 
   not turn to idols, nor make for yourselves molded gods: I am 
   the LORD your God. 

   Lev 19:11-18,35-36,26,28,31  You shall not steal, nor deal 
     falsely, nor lie to one another. 
   You shall not swear by My name falsely, nor shall you profane 
     the name of your God.  
   You shall not cheat your neighbor, nor rob him. The wages of 
     him who is hired shall not remain with you all night until 
     morning. 
   You shall not curse the deaf, nor put a stumbling block before 
     the blind, but shall fear your God: I am the LORD. 
   You shall do no injustice in judgment. You shall not be partial 
     to the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty. In 
     righteousness you shall judge your neighbor. 
   You shall not go about as a talebearer among your people; nor 
     shall you take a stand against the life of your neighbor. 
   You shall not hate your brother in your heart. You shall surely 
     rebuke your neighbor, and not bear sin because of him. 
   You shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the 
     children of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as 
     yourself. 
   You shall do no injustice in judgment, in measurement of 
     length, weight, or volume. You shall have honest scales, 
     honest weights, an honest ephah, and an honest hin.
   You shall not eat anything with the blood, nor shall you 
     practice divination or soothsaying. 
   You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor 
     tattoo any marks on you. 
   Give no regard to mediums and familiar spirits; do not seek 
     after them, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God. 

   Lev 19:33-34   And if a stranger dwells with you in your land, 
   you shall not mistreat him. {34} The stranger who dwells among 
   you shall be to you as one born among you, and you shall love 
   him as yourself; for you were strangers in the land of Egypt: I 
   am the LORD your God. 

   Deut 15:6-7,11   If there is among you a poor man of your 
   brethren, within any of the gates in your land which the Lord 
   your God is giving you, you shall not harden your heart nor shut 
   your hand from your poor brother, but you shall open your hand 
   wide to him and willingly lend him sufficient for his need, 
   whatever he needs.  For the poor will never cease from the land; 
   therefore I command you, saying, "You shall open your hand wide 
   to your brother, to your poor and your needy, in your land."

   Lev 18:22-24  You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It 
   is an abomination. Nor shall you mate with any animal, to 
   defile yourself with it. Nor shall any woman stand before an 
   animal to mate with it. It is perversion. Do not defile 
   yourselves with any of these things; for by all these the 
   nations are defiled, which I am casting out before you. 

   Lev 20:10,13,15-16  The man who commits adultery with another 
   man's wife, he who commits adultery with his neighbor's wife, 
   the adulterer and the adulteress, shall surely be put to death. 
   If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them 
   have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to 
   death. Their blood shall be upon them. If a man mates with an 
   animal, he shall surely be put to death, and you shall kill the 
   animal. If a woman approaches any animal and mates with it, you 
   shall kill the woman and the animal. They shall surely be put 
   to death. Their blood is upon them.

   {4} Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any 
   likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in 
   the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: {5} 
   Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I 
   the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the

   of them that hate me; {6} And showing mercy unto thousands of 
   them that love me, and keep my commandments.

   for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name 
   in vain. 
      
   {8} Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. {9} Six days 
   shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: {10} But the seventh 
   day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do 
   any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, 
   nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is 
   within thy gates: {11} For in six days the LORD made heaven and 
   earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh 
   day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed 
   it.
