7 Surprising Differences between the Christian and Jewish versions of The Decalogue.

Today I'm at the largest version of the 10 Commandments in the World! (Fields of the Wood in Murphy, North Carolina). The tablets are over 300 feet wide and 600 feet tall, and (Each individual letter is roughly 3 feet wide and 4 feet tall)

Even though they are thousands of years old, the Ten Commandments continue to be an influential document in both the Christian and Jewish traditions, and it has been adopted by many cultures as a cornerstone of their moral and legal systems. In the United States, the display of the Ten Commandments in public spaces has been seen as a symbol of the country's religious and cultural heritage.

However, it's worth noting that there are significant differences between the Christian and Jewish versions of the Ten Commandments.

For starters, in English, they are commonly referred to as the Ten Commandments, but in Hebrew, they are called the Ten Sayings, or "Aseret Hadibrot/Hadevarim." This is a translation the ancient Greek agreed with when they called it the DEKALOG (10 Words) as well as the Latin Vulgate (Verba Decem). Even in the 1500's William Tyndale is still referring to this list as the "10 Verses" which is much more neutral. Then with the King James Version we have this curious switch to The 10 "Commandments." Now why would a king who is sponsoring a translation of the Bible in order to cement his political power be interested in rebranding this list as The 10 Commandments? 🤔....

Beyond the name, there are many fascinating differences between individual items on the list as well as their popular interpretations....
