The commandments are the divine law handed down to Moses by God on Mount Sinai.
They are key to both Christian and Jewish religions. The commandments appear in the books of Exodus and Deuteronomy in the Old Testament of the Bible, but are also described by Jesus in Matthew's Gospel in the New Testament, where he shortens them to just two — Love God, Love your neighbor.

4 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy
5 Honor thy father and thy mother
6 Thou shalt not kill
7 Thou shalt not commit adultery
8 Thou shalt not steal

10 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbor's
