Day 4838: Commandments

Because ‘tis the season of the movie The Ten Commandments and because I love this scene from Mel Brooks’s movie History of the World, Part I …

.

… I asked this question on social media last night.

.

I’m not comfortable giving commandments but I would like to suggest that thou shalt peruse my remaining images for today.

.

Here’s what I find when I search for commandments on YouTube:

.

The final commandment in this blog post is Thou Shalt Give and Accept Gratitude Daily.

    After I learned about them, I always found it humorous that only 10 of the 613 Mitzvahs (sp) actually made it as Commandments. While 15 no 10 10 Commandments is funny, 613 no 10 commandments would lose its edginess.

    But I digress…

    10 Commandments… The 11th was Jesus repeating the Mitzva To love all human beings. Imagine if that commandment was followed…

    Chag Pesach Sameach!

    LOL! I just looked up “Chag Pesach Sameach!” and was just a little surprised that it had nothing to do with “Dune.” Kwisatz haderach, for instance. Kwisatz Haderach | Dune Wiki | Fandom

      Nope. Nothing to do with Dune unless Herbert meant it as an allegory for Israel and the Middle East (which I can certainly draw parallels).

        That was more than a bit of a joke, but it does occur to me that it may have been a bit on the disrespectful side, for which I apologize. I do, however, think you are right, that Herbert may very well have been symbolizing the ancient Israelites. I like to think so anyway.

    • Things are looking up, Barbara.
