The Ten Commandments #1 -I AM THE LORD YOUR GOD! " Enjoins that God must be known and acknowledged to be the only true God, and our God; and, to worship him and to make him known as he has been made known to us. Forbids not worshiping and glorifying the true God as God, and as our God; and forbids giving worship and glory to any other, which is due to him alone." The Ten Commandments, or Decalogue, are a list of religious and moral imperatives that according to religious tradition, were written by God and given to Moses on Mount Sinai in the form of two stone tablets. They feature prominently in Judaism and Christianity. In Biblical Hebrew language, the commandments are termed and in Rabbinical Hebrew (translit. Aseret ha-Dibrot), both translatable as "the ten statements." The name "Decalogue" is derived from the Greek name or "dekalogos" ("ten statements") found in the Septuagint (Exodus 34:28, Deuteronomy 10:4), which is the Greek translation of the Hebrew name. The phrase "Ten Commandments" generally refers to the very similar passages in Exodus 20:2?17 and Deuteronomy 5:6?21. Some distinguish between this "Ethical Decalogue" and a series of ten commandments in Exodus 34 that are labeled the "Ritual Decalogue." The commandments passage in Exodus contains more than ten imperative statements, totaling fourteen or fifteen in all. However, the Bible itself assigns the count of "Ten," using the Hebrew phrase Various religions divide these statements among the Commandments in different ways, and may also translate the Commandments differently.
