In the 10 commandments the first __ describe our duties to God whereas the next __ deal with our responsibilities to each other.

In the 10 commandments the first four describe our duties to God whereas the next six deal with our responsibilities to each other.

Explanation:

The Ten Commandments of the Old Testament were a list of obligations that God gave to Moses for the Israelites to obey. The Commandments written by God on two blocks of stone were given to Moses at Mount Sinai, while the Israelites were on their journey after their exodus from Egypt.

The first four of the Commandments describe our duties to God while the next six deal with our responsibilities to each other. The Ten Commandments (Exodus 20: 1-17) are as follows-

1. Thou shall have no other gods before me.

2. Thou shall make no false image or idols.

3. Thou shall not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain.

4. Remember to keep the Sabbath day holy.

5. Honor your father and mother.

6. Thou shall not murder.

7. Thou shall not commit adultery.

8. Thou shall not steal.

9. Thou shall not bear false witness against anyone.

10. Thou shall not covet.

dear friend:

  i hope this letter finds you in soaring spirits and vibrant health. as you had expressed the wish to know about culture, traditions, and unity of india in your previous letter, in the following lines i have tried my best to give you glimpses of our culture, traditions, and unity. you will be amazed to know that our culture is the oldest culture in the world and the birth place of hinduism, buddhism, jainism, and sikhism. you won’t find any other culture as varied and multi-colored, multi-lingual as ours. each region has its own unique culture, traditions, language. there are 22 official languages in india.

  basically, india is a spiritual country with orthodox traditions. for example the people of india believe in traditions set by their wise forefathers. arranged marriages, joint-family system, universal brotherhood, vegetarianism, celebrating festivals such as diwali, holi, eid, etc., are the salient features of our culture and traditions.

  another unique aspect about our country is ‘unity in diversity’. in spite of the multi-lingual, multi-religious, multi-traditional, multi-cultural society, people live peacefully together, respecting one another’s views, cultures, traditions, and differences. i am sure you would love to visit india soon, and have a first-hand experience of the multi-colored culture. give regards to uncle and aunt. do visit india with your family and experience our hospitality.

your friend,
