Almost everyone knows the Ten Commandments. What is not often recognized, however, that there are many other commands that God spoke which, for both Jews and Christians, are not considered to have the same value as the Ten Commandments. The same can be said for the statements of true prophets, including but not limited to Jesus, because whatever they said must be considered to have the same value as God’s spoken word. Since these commands were spoken by the voice of God, it is necessary that anyone who wants to obey should know what these command are.

Since it would be impossible to report all of these commands in this blog, we will highlight several which are easily overlooked because of their obscure content and poetic language.
