"And it shall be, when the LORD thy God shall have brought thee into the land which he sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee great and goodly cities, which thou buildedst not, And houses full of all good things, which thou filledst not, and wells digged, which thou diggedst not, vineyards and olive trees, which thou plantedst not; when thou shalt have eaten and be full;"
While Deuteronomy 5:21 stating:
"neither shalt thou covet thy neighbour's house, his field, or his manservant, or his maidservant, his ox, or his ass, or any thing that is thy neighbour's."
People use bad words for many reasons. Their friends curse, movies and TV shows are littered with foul language, and they think it's cool to do it themselves. Their parents do it, and they think it's ok. Even some Christians have potty mouthes which cause others to think, "Well if she/he curses, it's okay for me to do it too." But using bad words is most def a sin.
Exodus 20:7; Deuteronomy 5:11 Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
Ephesians 5:4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.

I happen to be on this page as i was browsing through i came across your comment. if you have a bible like to Encourage you to read matthew 6:33 seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness; and the book of proverbs 6:23 For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light and the reproofs of instruction are the way of life. i just wanted to encourage you that whatever you need help God will help you i know you maybe saying this is not nearly close to answering your [question] i know but if you search the scriptures you will everything you need to know. I added these books, and scriptures to help you know God's Commandments. when you wanted know if you commit murder (suicide) the same i pointed out what the book of Exodus God's Commandment says.

I agree that Cain inherited his sinful nature from Adam. Before Adam & Eve ate from the tree of knowledge of good & evil they knew no sin because they were made in the image of God. It was only after they ate from the tree that they new good & evil.
Jesus is our role model on how we [should] live. [If] it was [impossible] for us to [sin no more] then Jesus wouldn't of commanded us to [do] it.
John 5:14 Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: [sin no more], lest a worse thing come unto thee.
John 8:11 She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and [sin no more].
1 John 5:3 For this is the love of God, that we [keep] his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
John 15:10 [If] ye [keep] my commandments, ye [shall] abide in my love; even as I have [kept] my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.
1 John 2:3 And hereby we do know that we know him, [if] we [keep] his commandments.
Leviticus 22:31 Therefore shall ye [keep] my commandments, and [do] them: I am the LORD.
John 14:15 [If] ye love me, [keep] my commandments.
Leviticus 26:3 [If] ye walk in my statutes, [and keep] my commandments, and [do] them;
Numbers 15:40 That ye may remember, and [do] [all] my commandments, and [be holy] unto your God.
Deuteronomy 5:29 O that there were such an heart in them, that they would fear me, [and keep all] my commandments [always], that it might be well with them, and with their children for ever!
Proverbs 7:2 [Keep] my commandments, and [live]; and my law as the apple of thine eye.
Exodus 20:6 And shewing mercy unto [thousands] of them that [love me], [and keep] my commandments.
Deuteronomy 5:10 And shewing mercy unto [thousands] of them that [love me] [and keep] my commandments.
Deuteronomy 11:27 A blessing, [if] ye [obey] the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you this day.
I believe its the reason why men would what to wear womens clothes or why women would wear mens clothes. Being gay is one reason which is wrong. My mother wore overalls working on the farm. Dresses would not work, working in the fields. .
Deuteronomy 22:5 was a command about this given to the children of Israel: "The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God."
However, this Scripture does not give a warrant for us these days, as 'pants' are made for both genders & their acceptability in society. In those early days, this matter about clothing would have been more meaningful as they were not only gender-specific but more likely, amongst the heathen, the exchange of clothing in temple worship was common in honour of their god or goddess. So, Israel was not to imitate the heathen in this practise.
The Church is not commanded to keep the Sabbath. The command is specific to the LORD's covenant with Israel:
Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant. ( Exodus 31:16)
And remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the LORD thy God brought thee out thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore the LORD thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath day. ( Deuteronomy 5:15)
Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ. ( Colossians 2:16-17)
Its hard not to Love Father with all you heart mind n soul, its hard to keep from murdering, its hard to keep from stealing? if things like this is hard for a person, they better rethink their position when it comes to Father and his words!
Jesus said to Love God with all your heart mind n soul and to love your neighbor as you love yourselves, Then he said if you do those two things you have done EVERYTHING that's asked of a man by God and the Prophets!
I'm replying to your comment on the sabbath. While I agree that it would seem strange to follow only 9 of the 10 commandments, Jesus did treat the commandment about the sabbath differently than the others and there is scripture evidence that suggests the sabbath is not equal to the other commandments.
The reason is Jesus was accused of breaking the sabbath himself! If he were alive today and you saw Jesus heal someone or do some 'work', would you accuse and judge Him of it? That's what the Pharisees did and Jesus rebuked them. So, Jesus made a clear point that it's ok to do good work on the sabbath. Mark 2:27. There are also interesting verses like Colossians 2:16-17 and Romans 14:5. This shows the original reason Israelites needed to observe the Sabbath: Deuteronomy 5:15.
Comment: Sometimes you have to see a word in use (in the Bible) to see what it pertains to.
Vain has multiple uses.
Exodus 5:9
Let there more work be laid upon the men, that they may labour therein; and let them not regard vain words.
Leviticus 26:16
I also will do this unto you; I will even appoint over you terror, consumption, and the burning ague, that shall consume the eyes, and cause sorrow of heart: and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.
Leviticus 26:20
And your strength shall be spent in vain: for your land shall not yield her increase, neither shall the trees of the land yield their fruits.
Deuteronomy 5:11
Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain: for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
Deuteronomy 32:47
For it is not a vain thing for you; because it is your life: and through this thing ye shall prolong your days in the land, whither ye go over Jordan to possess it.
And they gave him threescore and ten pieces of silver out of the house of Baalberith, wherewith Abimelech hired vain and light persons, which followed him.
Judges 11:3
Then Jephthah fled from his brethren, and dwelt in the land of Tob: and there were gathered vain men to Jephthah, and went out with him.
1 Samuel 12:21
And turn ye not aside: for then should ye go after vain things, which cannot profit nor deliver; for they are vain.
1 Samuel 25:21
Now David had said, Surely in vain have I kept all that this fellow hath in the
That was a funny up to date rendering of Deut 9:10. Now, don't go revising Scripture by writing yet another version of the Bible - it won't work with most of us.
Exodus 20:5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
Deuteronomy 5:9 Thou shalt not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me,
No it not just for them. It just that after the splitting of the world into different languages, it was the Israelite that continued the worship of the most high.
That's why in mark 16:15 Christ told his disciples to spend the news to the world
God has harden the Jews heart unto this day. They are still waiting for the messiah unto this day. Not knowing that he has already come and they hung him on a cross and killed him. Paul said that since the Jews would not hear him that he would go to the gentiles. Thank God But in the later days some Jews will hear Him and be saved.
YAHWEH'S CHILD, Salvation is for EVERYBODY as God so loved the WORLD that he gave his only son THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM MIGHT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE The Gentiles come under Abraham an uncircumcised Syrian but the father of Israel.DOUBLESS thou art father tho Abraham be IGNORANT of us and Israel Acknowleded us not, truly thou art our FATHER OUR REDEEMER THY NAME IS FROM EVERLASTING, TH GENTILES
Yahweh's? Salvation is for: All that are Called( John 6:44) Called Not Only Jews But Gentiles Also---I Will Call Them My People( Romans 9:24-33, 10: 1-21) Being of The Blood line Does not Guarantee Salvation( Romans 2:28-29) Through their Fall Salvation is Come Unto The Gentiles to Provoke Them to Jealousy( Romans 11:11) All Nations, Kindreds, People and Tongues, Stood Before The Throne( Revelation 7:9
The covenant was only given to the Israelites. No one else. Moses said hear ol Israel not everybody. The whole Bible is for the Israelites only the seed of Jacob which his name was changed to Israel. It's very clear. Salvation is only for Israelites. No one else period
In response to Irene123, I would say this: God is indeed a single being, namely, God the Father. As the Divine Father, he has an only begotten Son. I too have a son. Is my son less than human because he is my son? Of course not! Moreover, my son, a finite being like me, had a beginning. Likewise, God's Son, being infinite, as God his Father is infinite, had no beginning.
If you love me keep my commandments. We are to keep the Lord's commandments even if we don't fully understand, that's what's makes him God, when we try to reason the enemy steps in and leads us astray, that's where faith steps in.To obey is better than sacrifice.
When bread is broken,crumbs fall and within these crumbs are clues to enlightenment,God gave very specific instructions,I'd say both before and during the commandments,we could look at him saying NOT to eat from the tree of Life in the Garden of Eden was a commandment,it just wasn't written on stone,it came straight from his mouth,Eve exsistd because Adam was alone,so God gave him what he asked...
Those who ignore God's standards have to through life with bumps and bruises. They are denying themselves the ability o have the best life possible in this wicked world. Jehovah God pleads with us to follow his laws. He created life so he knows what we need to be happy. If we obey, he promises thing will go well for us personally
"And it shall be, when the LORD thy God shall have brought thee into the land which he sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee great and goodly cities, which thou buildedst not, And houses full of all good things, which thou filledst not, and wells digged, which thou diggedst not, vineyards and olive trees, which thou plantedst not; when thou shalt have eaten and be full;"
While Deuteronomy 5:21 stating:
"neither shalt thou covet thy neighbour's house, his field, or his manservant, or his maidservant, his ox, or his ass, or any thing that is thy neighbour's."
Is it controversial?
Exodus 20:7; Deuteronomy 5:11 Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
Ephesians 5:4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.
