Exodus 20: 1-18

The first 4 are for God.

The next 6 are for man.

1. You will not have other gods but me (God)

2. Do not make any carved images to worship (idols) but you are to love me (God)

3. Do not curse using God's name

4. Keep the sabbath day holy (lunar 7th day - not Sunday or Saturday but the full moon, quarter moons and new moon)

5) Respect your parents

6) No killing other people

7) Do not commit adultery (no sex except with spouse)

8) No stealing

9) Do not tell lies

10) Do not be jealous of what others have

These are only 10 of 613 rules.

Jesus summed them up into one new commandment - "LOVE EVERYONE". See John 13:34

Then in Matthew 5:27-28 Jesus says that even if you think about sinning then you've sinned - not just doing the deed but thinking it is wrong... bottom line, you are a sinner no matter how hard you try and the only way to be forgiven is to accept Jesus as sacrificial lamb of God died for our sins.

You see, back in the Old Testament, the Hebrews had to kill something on an alter to be forgiven. Jesus took the place of all those animals and all is forgiven.

Salvation is by Grace - through Faith - plus Nothing... no good deeds, no donations, no other way to get into heaven (and out of hell). Grace is the hand of God that reaches down and freely offers salvation - Faith is hand of man reaching up and receives it... just don't forget to say "thank you".

Everything else is denominational b.s.

Except, since this question was asked in the Tanakh and Talmud section (both of which are solely Jewish literature), Jesus isn't seen as a messiah in Judaism, so the above answer (in regards to Judaism) is "denominational b.s."
