Exodus 20 · Grade 2
Ten Good Rules
Read the Story
God spoke to His people from the mountain. He said, I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt. Then God gave them ten good rules. We call them the Ten Commandments.
The first rules are about loving God. Have no other gods. Do not make idols. Use God's name with respect. Keep the day of rest holy.
The other rules are about loving people. Honor your father and mother. Do not murder. Be faithful in marriage. Do not steal. Do not lie. Do not want what belongs to others. God gave these rules because He loves His people.
