Doctrine of Life # 62
62. Every Form of Murder, Adultery, Theft, or False Witness, Including Every Urge to Commit Them, Is an Evil Which Must Be Refrained from as Being a Sin
People know that the law at Sinai was written on two tablets, and that the first tablet contains laws having to do with God, and the second laws having to do with man.
That the first tablet contains everything having to do with God, and the second everything having to do with man, is not something apparent in the letter. But everything is present in them. That is why the commandments are called the Ten Commandments, which symbolizes all truths in their entirety (see no. 61 just above). But in what way those truths are all present there cannot be explained in a few words. However, it may be comprehended from what we presented in The Doctrine of the Sacred Scripture 67, to which the reader is referred.
That is why we say, “every form of murder, adultery, theft, and false witness.”
