Sermons on the Ten Commandments


The Fathers say that the two tables of the the Law of Moses were divided according to the two great commandments: 1) To love God; and 2) To love your neighbor.

Here are sermons on the first table of the Law:

1st Commandment: Thou shalt have no other gods before Me. (12/11/2011)

2nd Commandment: Thou shalt not make unto thee any idols. For this commandment, there are two sermons: one on what it does not mean (3/4/2012), and one on what it does mean (10/21/2012).

3rd commandment: Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain (8/26/2012).

4th Commandment: Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy (9/16/2012).

And here are sermons on the second table of the Law:

5th Commandment: Honor thy father and thy mother (6/16/2013).

6th Commandment: Thou shalt not kill. For this commandment, there are two sermons: one on what it does mean (7/7/2013), and one on what it does not mean (7/14/2013).

7th Commandment: Thou shalt not commit adultery (8/11/2013), and a sermon on Divorce (8/18/2013).
