Funny, did you know that there are two sets of 10 Commandments? Yep, there’s the first one that many people can almost entirely list – and there’s the one that replaced the first that I’m sure you haven’t heard twice!

However, if we focus on the first set (as people typically do), I think we’ll find that the commandments aren’t exactly all that complicated – especially the deeper we go with them. In fact, the more we study and reflect on this list, like most of scripture, I think the primary rule being emphasized is the one that Jesus Christ said was the greatest commandment and the one that we must follow in order to live: “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind.” What might get tricky though is understanding and living up to this commandment and all that it entails from our diverse viewpoints, traditions, and lives.
