Bible Question (short): Why change order of commandments? |
Question (full): Question to Catholics. I just found a Cath Bible site. I read Ex 20 and the 10 Commandments are in there just like they are in every other Bible. I was raised Cath. I was taught the 10 commandments are 1. I am the Lord thy God, you shall have no other Gods before me. 2. Do not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain. 3. Keep holy the sabbath day. 4. Honor thy mother and father. 5. Thou shall not kill. 6. Thou shall not commit adultery. 7. Thou shall not steal. 8. Thou shall not bear false witness against thy neighbor. 9. Thou shall not covet they neighbor's wife. 10. Thou shall not covet thy neighbor's goods. Why do they leave out the graven image commandment and break the covet commandment in two? It's all right there in the Bible, why do they change it? |
