Shemot 20 - Exodus 20
The Word "TORAH" means to teach, to point out as aiming the finger. The Torah gives us the awareness of our sinful nature that we need Messiah Yeshua to set us free from the bondage of sin. The Torah is seen as Hashem's set of INSTRUCTION TOOL concerning how we should conduct our lives so that they may grow from spiritual babies in the Messiah to spiritual maturity. As you could see the below mention the 10 Mitzvot was given 50 days after Yisrâeil left the land of Mitzrayim, does this reminds us of the Shauv'ot, the Ruach HaKodesh dwells in the heart of the believer. From that time onwards, New Covenant believer will be guided by the Ruach Hakodesh to fullfill the Torah as a new living way of life.
Ezra 7:10 Pattern For Applying Torah In Our Lives
And Elohim (אלהים) spake all these Dvar, saying:
Thou shalt not make unto thee any pesel (graven image), or any temunah (likeness) [of any thing] that [is] in Shamayim above, or that [is] in the earth beneath, or that [is] in the mayim under ha eretz :
Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I YHWH (יהוה) Eloheicha [am] a kanna (jealous) EL, visiting the iniquity of the avot upon the children unto the third and fourth [generation] of them that hate Me;
20:6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love Me, and shomer My mitzvot.
Thou shalt not take ha Shem YHWH (יהוה) Eloheicha la shav (in vain); for YHWH (יהוה) will not hold him guiltless that taketh His Name la shav (שׁוא).
Zakar ha Yom Shabbat, le kadosh.
Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
But the yom hashevi'i (7th day) [is] ha Shabbat YHWH (יהוה) Eloheicha: [in it] thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that [is] within thy gates:
For [in] six days YHWH (יהוה) made Shamayim and earth, the sea, and all that in them [is], and rested the yom hashevi'i (7th day): wherefore YHWH (יהוה) barak (blessed) ha Yom Shabbat, and set apart it.
Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the eretz which YHWH (יהוה) Eloheicha giveth thee.
Thou shalt not kill.
Thou shalt not commit adultery.
Thou shalt not steal.
Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's beit, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that [is] thy neighbour's.
20:18 And all the people saw the thunderings, and the lightnings, and the noise of the shofar, and the mountain smoking: and when the people saw [it], they removed, and stood afar off.
20:19 And they said unto Mosheh, Speak thou with us, and we will hear: but let not Elohim (אלהים) speak with us, lest we die.
20:20 And Mosheh said unto the people, Fear not: for Elohim (אלהים) is come to prove you, and that his fear may be before your faces, that ye sin not.
20:21 And the people stood afar off, and Mosheh drew near unto the thick darkness where Elohim (אלהים) [was].
20:22 And YHWH (יהוה) said unto Mosheh, Thus thou shalt say unto the Benai Yisrael, Ye have seen that I have talked with you from Shamayim.
20:23 Ye shall not make with Me gods of kesef (silver), neither shall ye make unto you gods of zahav. (gold)
20:24 An mizbeach (altar) adamah thou shalt make unto Me, and shalt sacrifice thereon thy Olot, and thy Shelamin, thy sheep, and thine oxen: in all places where I will cause My Name to be remembered; I will come unto thee, and I will bless thee.
20:25 And if thou wilt make Me an mizbeach (altar) of stone, thou shalt not build it of cut stone: for if thou lift up thy tool upon it, thou hast polluted it.
20:26 Neither shalt thou go up by steps unto Mine mizbeach (altar), that thy nakedness be not discovered thereon.
