The 10 commandments


The 10 commandments, or Decalogue are list of religious and moral imperatives that, according to the hebrew bible were spoken by God to the people of Israel from the mountain reffered to as Mt. Sinai or Horeb. And later authored by God and given to Moses in the form of two stone tablets.

In Judaism, the Ten Commandments are associated with the religious instructions outlined in the Torah, which is the first set of books in the Hebrew Bible.
