People use the ones from Exodus chapter 20 or Deuteronomy chapter 5 because they are "nicer" and not ethnocentric like the real ones. I think it would be hard to find too many Bible thumpers who would really want to post the ones in Exodus chapter 34 in every American courthouse.(January 23, 2017 at 10:46 pm)Wyrd of Gawd Wrote: Those stories are based upon the 10th Commandment, Exodus 34:26 (NKJV) = "You shall not not a young goat in its mother's milk".
This is crazy. I had no idea there was another set of commandments carved upon stone and brought down to the people with a radiant face. How come nobody ever mentions those commandments?! I know my Bible pretty damn well and I've never heard of this one. Interesting. Thanks.
If you want to have some fun ask your favorite preacher what the Ten Commandments are. He will lie and say they are the ones from Exodus chapter 20.
But one you fully understand that the ones in Exodus chapter 34 are the real Ten Commandments you will be able to understand all of the biblical stories. All of the biblical stories from Adam & Eve to Jesus are based upon those Commandments.
