Idolatry in Greece, Rome and elsewhere tended to go hand in hand with cruelty and licentiousness, since the caprices which were claimed concerning the idols were adopted as an excuse to imitate those types of behavior.
Thus, for example, the "god" of wine was worshiped with drunkenness. In the Roman cities, these Bacchanalian feasts became so wild that a royal decree was promulgated banning them from the city limits.
The deities of fertility were worshiped with incest and immorality (see Leviticus ch.18). Prostitution was a fixed part of temple worship. In Judaism, a robber repays double to his victim, or works it off. Cutting off the hand of a robber is a punishable crime. Debtors are not imprisoned or harmed. They are made to sell property and/or work to repay what they owe. Compare this to the Roman practice by which anyone could accuse a man of owing them money and the debtor could be dismembered and killed (Roman "Twelve Tables of Law" code, 3:10).
Under Israelite law, "an eye for an eye" has always meant the monetary value placed upon it by the court (Talmud, Bava Kama 83b). Roman law, however, included literal retaliation (Twelve Tables, 7:9).
A Roman father could kill his male descendants for any reason, without trial (Patrias Potestas; Twelve Tables, 4:1).
Romans were killed for the crime of slander (Twelve Tables, 7:8).
A Roman could be killed for assembling a noisy crowd at night and disturbing the town (Twelve Tables, 9:6).
Under Israelite law, everyone had recourse to the courts. A child, widow, wife, etc., could seek legal action against any citizen to redress perpetrated harm. Compare this to Greece and Rome, in which children had no rights. Aristotle, who was among the greatest of the Greeks, and Seneca, the famous Roman, both write that killing one's unwanted babies is perfectly acceptable. Professor and former President of the American Historical Association, William L. Langer (in The History of Childhood), writes: "Children, being physically unable to resist aggression, were the victims of forces over which they had no control, and they were abused in almost unimaginable ways."
The Ten Commandments of Moses are articles of faith. Legal codes can be secular, that is based on constitutional, legislative and case law rather than theology. That being said concepts contained by Ten Commandments are argued to have universal legal implications as prohibitions to killing and stealing are fundamental to secular legal codes, who designate such actions as murder and theft.
Ancient Near East covenants typically present casuistic (cause and effect) law; that is, they list crime and punishment. The Decalogue's formula is apodictic: command apart from result. "Thou shall not murder" for example. The Mosaic code also has a proportionally higher number of positive injunctions than its ancient Near Eastern counterparts. It contains a fair number of "thou shalts."
Leon Epsztein (Social Justice in the Ancient Near East and the People of the Bible) says that thanks to discoveries of the last two centuries, it is possible to demonstrate from the texts the existence of a general aspiration towards justice extending over various regions of the ancient Near East. The quest for justice which appeared in Israel has analogies to that which appeared among its neighbors.
There are differences of wording, in particular of course with the first three commandments, but other ancient texts also show a similar concern for justice and social order.
The religion is different

They don't differ very much, a theory is just as trusted as a law. Laws tend to be expressed mathematically or logically, while theories tend to be more conceptual.

Hungarians speak a Finno-Ugric language as opposed to the mostly Slavic languages surrounding them.
There are two slightly different versions of the 10 commandments, one in Exodus, one in Deuteronomy. Jews generally refer to the 10 statements, since some of the statements are not in the form of commandments. The 2 versions of the 10 commandments differ in whether we are commanded to keep the Sabbath or to Remember it. Jews believe that the 10 commandments are only binding on Jews, while the 7 Noachide commandments are binding on all mankind.
