LEARNING FOCUS 1: The giving of the Ten Commandments.
CONTENT
People who want to live or work together make rules for themselves. The rules give them freedom to live as they wish, but at the same time, be responsible for the happiness of the whole group.
This story is found in the Book of Exodus, which is the story of the Israelites’ journey from Egypt to the Promised Land. The book of Exodus is one of the five books which make up the Jewish Torah or law.
After Moses led the Israelites from slavery in Egypt, they wandered in the desert for many years. They were glad they were free, but it was hard going at times. Sometimes they were hungry and thirsty, then they began to grumble. But God provided for them, in spite of their grumbles and they knew that God was with them leading and guiding them.
As they made their way through the desert they lived together as a community learning to care for each other’s needs, but above all learning to know and worship the God who had saved them. When they reached a very high mountain called Mount Sinai, Moses ordered the people to camp at the foot of it and not to climb its slopes, because it is God’s mountain. Moses himself began to climb and asked the people to pray that God would teach them the laws which would bring them together as a people. Moses stayed on the mountain for a very long time, praying and talking with God. Then he returned to God’s people and gave them God’s Laws: The Ten Commandments. These were to help the people to live in freedom and to be responsible for their actions.
LEARNING FOCUS 2: The Ten Commandments.
CONTENT
The story of the Ten Commandments is found in the Book of Exodus 20: 1-17 and in the Book of Deuteronomy 5: 1-21 Moses reminds the people again about them. Christians share these Commandments with Jewish people. This list is from the Book of Exodus; God spoke, and these were his words:
“I am the Lord your God who brought you out of Egypt, where you were slaves.”
Based on Exodus 20 1-17
