remember the sabbath and keep it holy. Exodus 20: 8
Moses led the Israelites back to Canaan after they were enslaved in Egypt. He received the Ten Commandments from God on Mount Sinai and established a society based on religion and laws in Israel, creating a foundation for the Israelites' religious and social life.
The Ten Commandments provide moral guidelines for ethical living, promoting principles such as honesty, respect, and fairness. Following these commandments can help individuals make wise decisions, cultivate healthy relationships, and contribute to a harmonious society. Ultimately, the commandments serve as a blueprint for virtuous behavior and moral integrity.
The Ten Commandments contain universal moral codes that can be found in almost all religions. It has been said that they are largely a repetition of the Babylonian Code of Hammurabi and the Hindu Vedas, among others. Where they do differ is in commanding that the Jews have no other god before me [God].
In ancient times, laws were only as effective as the ruler who promulgated them, so the best laws were those based on religion. The Ten Commandments were the most important of many commandments in the Hebrew Bible and were written down as having been received from God, thus ensuring their absolute observance by the faithful. The Ten Commandments is a mix of codes to ensure proper religious observance, and rules for harmonious society.A:Whether the Ten Commandments are really of divine origin depends on whether the biblical Exodus from Egypt is historically true. On this, the strong consensus of biblical scholars is that there never was an Exodus from Egypt as described in the Bible, in which case the story of Moses receiving the Ten Commandments from God can not be historical. There is no evidence that the Ten Commandments ever existed outside the Bible. They belong to traditions put down in writing during the middle centuries of the first millennium BCE. The first four commandments focus on religious observance. In fact the first three commandments are essentially different ways of saying to worship no other god. The remaining six commandments focus on some rules for a harmonious society. We need not regard them as rules for strict moral conduct because, for example, the tenth commandment says not to do not covet that which belongs to your neighbour, including his wife and slaves. We no longer think of wives as mere chattels, and ownership of slaves is now considered morally repugnant.The Ten Commandments hold a more honoured place in Christian religion than in modern Judaism. For Jews, although important, they are ten of the many important biblical laws they must obey. For Christians, the Ten Commandments are at the heart of the Old Testament.

I personally LOVE Adam Lambert's music and voice. He is unbelievably talented and I think that he definatly should have won. I have been rooting for him since I saw his audition in January of 2008. I went to the American Idol Concert this year and his performance was phenomenal and I own both of his albums, and the Ten Commanments the Musical which he was in as well.
