Dishonest Isaac & Jacob

Exodus chs. 20

By: Edward Short©

1.Ex. 20:12-17:  Commandments five through ten encompass responsibilities of man toward his fellow man.  (The first four commandments deal with man’s responsibilities toward God.)

2.Ex. 20:12:  The Fifth Commandment“Honor your father and your mother.”  uAffirms:  People should respect their parents and the elderly.  The family is the basic unit of society; parents are the foundation of the family.  vCondemns and prohibits:  Children must not disobey their parents; children cannot say that their parents are unworthy of their respect.  wCommands:  Honor, respect, obey and (when they are old) care for parents.  xPrinciples:  1) Parental authority: Parents head the home.  As children honor and obey their parents, so parents should honor and obey the Father in heaven.  Parents receive authority to rule the home, thus parents are subject to God’s “rule.”  Therefore, parents should live up to God’s standard for the home.  Parents should live morally so that children will honor them happily.  2) Governmental authority:  Respect government and law.  yPromise:  “…so that you may live long in the land the LORD your God is giving you.”  [The New Chinese Translation is also quoted.]  In the New Testament, the apostle Paul says that this is “the first commandment with a promise” (Eph. 6:2).  zFilial piety in the Old Testament:  See Ex. 21:15, 17:  “Anyone who attacks his father or mother must be put to death…  Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.”  See also:  Proverbs 15:5; 30:17; 6:20-23; 23:22; Leviticus 19:32.

3.Ex. 20:13:  The Sixth Commandment“You shall not kill.”  uAffirms:  Life is sacred and should be protected.  vCondemns and prohibits:  Murder.  wCommands:  Do not kill people.  Definition of “kill”:  1) Intentional murder (Gen. 4:8; Deut. 27:24).  2) Murder by proxy (2 Sam. 11:14-15).  3) Murder by bribery (Deut. 27:25).  4) Murder through false witness (Deut. 19:16-19).  5) Death due to neglect (Ex. 21:29; Deut. 22:8).  6. Suicide.  xOther implications:  1) Vengeance (Deut. 32:35).  2) Excessive endangerment of human life.  yNot prohibited:  1) Capital punishment (Gen. 9:6).  2) War.  3) Police duties.  4) Self-defense (Ex. 22:2).  5) Accidental killing (Deut. 19:4-6).  zPrinciple:  Life is sacred.

4.Ex. 20:14:  The Seventh Commandment“You shall not commit adultery.”  uAffirms:  God established the home to have one husband and one wife.  Sexual activity outside of marriage is sin.  vCondemns and prohibits:  Sexual activity outside of marriage.  wCommands:  Purity before marriage, loyalty after marriage, holiness throughout life.  xPrinciple:  The human body is sacred.  Marriage and the home is sacred.

5.Ex. 20:15:  The Eighth Commandment“You shall not steal.”  uAffirms:  “Things” may be owned by individuals; other people may not use any type of inappropriate means to seize them.  vCondemns and prohibits:  1) Theft.  2) Refusal to give what should be given.  wCommands:  Shall not steal.  Definition of “steal” (includes but is not limited to):  1) Theft.  2) Coercion (Gen. 25:31).  3) Gambling.  4) Tax evasion.  5) Laziness (especially in employment).  6) Copying exams.  7) Shoddy construction.  8) Illicit love.  9) Neglect (property left in one’s care: Ex. 22:14-15).  10) False statement (e.g. false advertisement).  11) Cheating (e.g., inaccurate scales, Deut. 25:13-16).  12) Refusing to give to God that which he should receive (Malachi 3:8-10).  Etc.  xPrincipal:  Respect private property of others.  Private property should belong to them.

6.Ex. 20:16:  The Ninth Commandment“You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.”  uAffirms:  Tell the truth.  vCondemns and prohibits:  In public settings, in court, in private, in any situation, one must not give false testimony.  wCommands:  Must not give false testimony against one’s neighbor.  xHow does one break this command?  1) By lying (1 Kings 13:18-19).  2) By telling only part of the truth and misleading the hearer (Joshua 9; cf. 1 Samuel 20).  3) By mixing truth with falsehood (Gen. 20:1-13).  4) By raising a question (Gen. 3:1).  5) By gossip (1 Kings 21:1-14).  6) By remaining silent when falsehood is being spoken and one knows the truth (Esther 4:14).  7) By flattery (Judges 9:1-15; Acts 12:19-23).  8) By judging one’s motives (2 Sam. 10:1-4).  yUnless in a court of law, this command does not obligate one to tell the entire truth about a given situation (1 Samuel 16:1-3).  zPrincipal:  Respect truth; truth is sacred.

7.Ex. 20:17:  The Tenth Commandment“You shall not covet.”  [The New Chinese Translation is also quoted, similar to the NIV]: “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."  uAffirms:  Develop an inner moral beauty which should be displayed in one’s daily life (e.g., Leviticus 19:9-18).  Proverbs 4:23:  “Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.”  vCondemns and prohibits:  Covetousness, jealousy, etc.  wCommands:  Contentment, good attitude.  Rejoice with those who rejoice.  xPrinciple:  Have a good attitude toward others and their possessions.  Holiness of the inner person.
