I hope that you'll be reading this all the way till the end and not close this as I've spent lotsa time working on this. Haha...
| Exodus 20:2–17 | Deuteronomy 5:6–21 | Exodus 34:11–27 |
|---|---|---|
2 "I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. 3 "You shall have no other gods before [or besides] me. 4 "You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, 6 but showing love to a thousand {generations} of those who love me and keep my commandments. 7 "You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God, for the LORD will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name. 8 "Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant, nor your animals, nor the alien within your gates. 11 For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, but he rested on the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy. 12 "Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the LORD your God is giving you. 13 "You shall not murder. 14 "You shall not commit adultery. 15 "You shall not steal. 16 "You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor. 17 "You shall not covet your neighbor's house. You shall not covet your neighbor's wife, or his manservant or maidservant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor." | "I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. 7 "You shall have no other gods before [a] me. 8 "You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 9 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, 10 but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments. 11 "You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God, for the LORD will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name. 12 "Observe the Sabbath day by keeping it holy, as the LORD your God has commanded you. 13 Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 14 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant, nor your ox, your donkey or any of your animals, nor the alien within your gates, so that your manservant and maidservant may rest, as you do. 15 Remember that you were slaves in Egypt and that the LORD your God brought you out of there with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm. Therefore the LORD your God has commanded you to observe the Sabbath day. 16 "Honor your father and your mother, as the LORD your God has commanded you, so that you may live long and that it may go well with you in the land the LORD your God is giving you. 17 "You shall not murder. 18 "You shall not commit adultery. 19 "You shall not steal. 20 "You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor. 21 "You shall not covet your neighbor's wife. You shall not set your desire on your neighbor's house or land, his manservant or maidservant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor." | 11 Obey what I command you today. I will drive out before you the Amorites, Canaanites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites. 12 Be careful not to make a treaty with those who live in the land where you are going, or they will be a snare among you. 13 Break down their altars, smash their sacred stones and cut down their Asherah poles. [That is, symbols of the goddess Asherah] 14 Do not worship any other god, for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God. 15 "Be careful not to make a treaty with those who live in the land; for when they prostitute themselves to their gods and sacrifice to them, they will invite you and you will eat their sacrifices. 16 And when you choose some of their daughters as wives for your sons and those daughters prostitute themselves to their gods, they will lead your sons to do the same. 17 "Do not make cast idols. 18 "Celebrate the Feast of Unleavened Bread. For seven days eat bread made without yeast, as I commanded you. Do this at the appointed time in the month of Abib, for in that month you came out of Egypt. 19 "The first offspring of every womb belongs to me, including all the firstborn males of your livestock, whether from herd or flock. 20 Redeem the firstborn donkey with a lamb, but if you do not redeem it, break its neck. Redeem all your firstborn sons. 21 "Six days you shall labor, but on the seventh day you shall rest; even during the plowing season and harvest you must rest. 22 "Celebrate the Feast of Weeks with the firstfruits of the wheat harvest, and the Feast of Ingathering at the turn of the year. [That is, in the fall] 23 Three times a year all your men are to appear before the Sovereign LORD, the God of Israel. 24 I will drive out nations before you and enlarge your territory, and no one will covet your land when you go up three times each year to appear before the LORD your God. 25 "Do not offer the blood of a sacrifice to me along with anything containing yeast, and do not let any of the sacrifice from the Passover Feast remain until morning. 26 "Bring the best of the firstfruits of your soil to the house of the LORD your God. 27 Then the LORD said to Moses, "Write down these words, for in accordance with these words I have made a covenant with you and with Israel." |
Also, if you scrutinise the passage carefully, there're actually 15 statements in all and not just 10.
| | |
| I am the Lord your God | 1 |
| You shall have no other gods before me | |
| You shall not make for yourself an idol | |
| You shall not make wrongful use of the name of your God | 2 |
| Remember the Sabbath and keep it holy | 3 |
| Honor your father and mother | 4 |
| You shall not murder | 5 |
| You shall not commit adultery | 6 |
| You shall not steal | 7 |
| You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor | 8 |
| You shall not covet your neighbor's wife | 9 |
| You shall not covet anything that belongs to your neighbor | 10 |
So in fact, we have 15 commandments rather than 10.
On a lighter note, I'm not sure if you've seen this, but there are 2 more...
| A New Christian Ten Commandments | The 10 Commandments of Common Sense |
1.Thou shalt shut thy gob when politely asked, and not drone on endlessly. 2. Thou shalt not use circular arguments, such as "God exists, because the Bible sayeth so, and the Bible is True because it is God's Word." 3. Thou shalt notice when thy audience is bored rigid. See Commandment 1. 4. Thou shalt not use a cop-out such as "God worketh in mysterious ways" when backed into a corner by thine own convoluted logic. 5.Thou shalt use thine own imagination, and not just quote from the Bible all the time. 6.Thou shalt not tell atheists what they believe, nor that thy God loveth them. 7.Thou shalt not get upset by jokes about thy God. He is big enough and old enough to looketh after himself. 8.Thou shalt not define how thy God worketh. Thou canst not know. 9.Thou shalt not state that the Bible is consistent and hath no contradictions. Thou wouldst be a fool to doeth so. 10. Thou shalt not say Grace without also thanking the farmers, truck-drivers and shopkeepers that actually did the work required to get your food to the table. | 1. Don’t be seduced by popular culture. It prevents you from thinking for yourself. 2. Don’t fall in love with money. It will make you greedy and shallow. 3. Don’t use destructive language. It hurts others as will well as yourself. 4. Don’t judge other people. Its better to work on your own faults. 5. Don’t let anger get out of control. It can wreak relationships and ruin lives. 6. Keep a positive outlook on life. It's the first step to joy. 7. Bring out the best in other people. It's better to build up than to tear down. 8. Have impeccable integrity. It brings peace of mind and a reputation of honor. 9. Help those in need. It really is better to give than to receive. 10. Do everything in love. It is the only way to find true peace and fulfillment. |

Sissy Bapok Thomas Didymuz Toh 87882033 wrote about her kinky massage in Rapee Massage, Bangkok again! This slut is grossly infecting everyone with her STDs:
In Bangkok now, visited my fave massage place Rapee a few days back for a good massage after dinner and the therapist, Dee, from my last visit was still around. Dee remembered me and welcomed me warmly with his smile and traditional wai at the door.
Booking a 1.5 hour oil massage with Dee, he was very familiar with the process and worked on my back and aching shoulders, soothing my aches in his gentle way.
When it was timing to turn over, Dee was already full naked with his hard tool potruding out, no wonder I felt something hard poking at me earlier when he climbed over my back!
Dee gave me a very good body to body massage, had to keep quiet not to moan, so as not to let others know. But soon, the hard tool of his could not resist my constant sucking and he came all over my face.
We got dressed and he asked if I would like to meet up later after his work for supper, I was really surprised and agreed to meet him at midnight.
Walked to the lobby to be served with hot tea, tipped him the usual and left.
