Jewish Ten Commandments List For Children

Jewish Ten Commandments

Yet, as we approach Shavuot, the Jewish holiday that commemorates the handing-down of the list of Ten Commandments at Mount Sinai, just because there’s a debate about the public appropriateness of displaying the Decaolgue list for children.  It doesn’t mean you can’t surround yourself with them at shul - or even in your front yard.

And he gave to Moses, when he had finished speaking with him on Mount Sinai, the two tablets of the testimony, tablets of stone, written with the finger of God. - Ex. 31:18

The Decalogue are a special set of spiritual imperatives (laws) that the LORD Himself wrote on two stone tablets (luchot) that Moses brought down from Mount Sinai (Ex. 31:18).  These were given to the Children of Israel, and some people refer to them as the Jewish Ten Commandments.

In the Scriptures these laws are called the aseret hadevarim, the "ten words" or "ten utterances" (see Ex. 34:28, Deut. 4:13 and Deut. 10:4). In rabbinical writings, they are usually referred to as Aseret haDiberot, and in Christian theological writings they are called the Decalogue (from the Greek words deca [10] and logoi [words]).
