Finally, The 12 Commandments

[1dell]

Found in Shimot 20:2-17

First off let me tell you that I have taken up the task of reading the entire bible over again from cover to cover. The last time I did that was back in 92, so 10 or 11 years later I am reading it again with new eyes, what with my exodus from christianity and all. I felt that I owed it to my self. Now that I am thinking with a new mind unplugged from the Matrix, I wanted to glean the garden to see what I have missed. And Man I tell you, reading the scriptures with an unchristian mind is the best way to approach the book. It was SOOOO much I overlooked.

For one, I am starting to disagree with monotheism. I mean I dont know how anyone could read the book and figure there is just one God, or if there is one God, he has some that just a rank below him that he gives a lot of power to or share responsiblity with. There are even times with the Most High refers to other deities that we have been taught to believe were one and the same person, but it's impossible to be the case.

ANYWAY I am getting track. Now here are the 12 commandments

1	I IHaVaH your El'him who brought you out of the land of Egypt out of the House of BondageYou shall have no other gods before me
2	You shall not make for YOURSELF a carved image any likeness that in heaven above or that in beneath the earth or that in the water under the earth
3	You shall not bow down to them nor serve them for I IHaVaH your El'him am a jealous EL visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the 3rd and 4th of those who hate me but showing mercy to thousands to those who love me and keep my commandments
4	You shall not take the name of IHaVaH your El'him in vain for IHaVaH will not hold guiltless who takes his name in vain.
5	REMEMBER the day of Shabbat TO KEEP it holy
6	Six days YOU SHALL labor and do all your work but the 7th day the Shabbat of IHaVaH your El'him you shall do no work you nor your son nor your daughter nor your male servant nor your femal servant nor your cattle nor your stranger who within your gates for six days IHaVaH made the heavens and the earth the sea and all that in them and rested the 7th day therefore the lord blessed the Shabbat day and hallowed it
7	Honor your father and your mother that your days may be long upon the land which IHaVaH your El'him is giving you
8	You shall not murder
9	You shall not commit adultery
10	You shall not steal
11	You shall not bear false witness against your adversary
12	You shall not covet your adversary's/Associate's wife nor his male servant nor his female servant nor his ox nor his donkey nor anything that your adversary's/associate's

There you have it the 12 commandments. There are exactly 6 that pertains to one's relationship to the Most High and establishes what is required of them and there are 6 that relate to how we should treat humanity. Thereby complete the Tau/Tao or Letter T in hebrew The vertical relationship from earth to heaven and the lateral/horizontal relationship east to west, thusly making completion seeing as how the Tau/Tao is the last letter of the Hebrew alefbet. Incidently the commandments/mitzvot start off with "I IHaVaH your...." the Word I in Ivry/Hebrew is Ani and starts with the letter Alef, the first letter of the Alefbet. For those who dont have ears to see and eyes to hear, I am saying that Alef and Tau is the same as Alpha and OMega...nevermind.

You will notice that is certain places is seems as if I am speaking in broken english during the commandments or there may seem to be typos. It is not. I purposely did that. bEcause as I read the bible over again I am crossing out those italicized words as I go along. And This is how it reads minus those italicized words. You'd be SURPRISED how you can get different meanings without those italicized words all OVER the bible!!! In fact I know entire doctrines built on those italicized words thru out the bible and the Pastors dont know they do so in error.

Sh'l'um

Hey 1dell, I think I understand why they say 10 commandments and you know what, they may be right. It took me a couple of min., before I realized this. What they should have said was "10 commandments on what not to do". Sorta like the egiptian negative confessions. I counted how many times "thou shalt not" is repeated for every new command and it comes up to exactly ten Xs. Basically there are ten "La" for each forbidden action. La in hebrew is "no" (negative). Below I highlited the ten negative restrictions

• Exodus 20: 1- 17,
  
  1 And God spake all these words, saying,
  2 I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
  3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
  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 fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
  6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
  7 Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; 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.
  12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
  13 Thou shalt not kill.
  14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.
  15 Thou shalt not steal.
  16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
  17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.
  

[The two "thou shalt not" in the last commandment can be treated as one because both refer to coveting. It also gets into the 11 commandments which ties in with the 10 sephiroth tree where there is one invisible sphere, making it 11]


peace.

To make sure, I re-counted "" occurences and it comes up to ten plus one (eleven). And it coincides with the sephiroth tree.
