00:00After leading the Israelites out of Egypt, Moses ascended Mount Sinai into a thick cloud where
00:07God's presence dwelt. For 40 days and nights, he remained on the mountain, and the Lord spoke to
00:13him. God gave Moses a covenant for his people, laws to set them apart as a holy nation. With
00:19his own finger, he inscribed these words on two tablets of stone. The voice of the Almighty
00:24declared the commandments. Worship God alone. Make no idols. Do not misuse the Lord's name.
00:31Remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy. Honor your father and mother. Do not murder. Do not
00:37commit adultery. Do not steal. Do not give false testimony. Do not covet what belongs to your
00:43neighbor. Carrying the stone tablets, Moses descended the mountain. His face shone with a radiant light
00:49from having been in the presence of God. He brought to the people the foundation of their faith,
00:53a divine law of justice, reverence, and moral order. Fest a timeless guide for a life pleasing
00:59to God.
