No. Rome did not exist at the time.
In English, Roman Numerals are used to list the Ten Commandments because it looks old and fancy. In other languages, like Hebrew, the Ten Commandments are listed using alphabetical numerals (א ב ג ד).
Some books in the Old Testament that contain laws are Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. These books outline various laws and commandments given to the Israelites by God through Moses.
The Ten Commandments are important because they are the laws God handed down to Moses on Mt. Sinai. The Old Testament had over 600 laws, but after the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the Ten Commandments in the New Testament were the new laws for us to live by.
The ten commandments were given to Moses by God on Mount Sinai. The Old Testament book, Exodus, Chapter 20 lists the ten commandments starting with "You shall have no other gods before me."
We obey the moral laws, such as not committing adultery and homosexuality. But we do have to obey the Ten Commandments. Things such as not eating unclean animals is not really an issue today.
The Ten Commandments are in the Bible, specifically in the Old Testament in the book of Exodus and Deuteronomy. They are a set of ethical guidelines and religious laws given by God to Moses on Mount Sinai.
yes if you are refering to the 10 commandments!! but most of the laws given in the old testament are still used today but may be slightly changed to fit the current society but laws not usually changed.

Roman Catholic AnswerThere were 600+ commandments of the Pentateuch (the first five books of the Old Testament). St. Thomas Aquinas divides this into three groups: the moral laws, the ceremonial laws, and the civil laws. The moral commandments are binding on all men for all time, that would include the Ten Commandments, these are "written on the hearts of men", so to speak. The ceremonial laws were in anticipation of Jesus Christ. As Jesus Christ has already come, to abide by these laws is a sin, as it would be denying that Our Blessed Lord has already come. The third category is neutral and depends on the country you live in. The practice of eating clean animals falls into the second category. Our Blessed Lord specifically stated that all animals were clean for us, so to observe these laws would be to deny Christ, specifically as He said so.
Leviticus is an entire book of the Torah, or Old Testament of the Bible, that deals with laws given to Moses by God to be handed down to the people of Israel. It is noteworthy, however, that the Ten Commandments are not part of these laws. The ten commandments, found in Exodus 20, are not considered part of the Law of Moses, although they are to be viewed as the basic assumptions upon which the laws are based.
This answer is from the Christian belief system: The two tablets inscribed with the 10 commandments was given to Moses by God on the mountain. These were then stored in the Ark of the covenant. The Christian 10 commandments are as stated in the old testament from this story. The Old testament is based on the Torah and forms the basis of Jewish Law Christ (the son of God) simplified the commandments to two thus:- "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets." In other words, if you follow these two commandments, you will never do what the rest tell you not to do. This is what Christians believe.
According to the Old Testament the ten commandments were given to Moses by God on Mount Sinai.
