• Dumbrell speaks on the giving of the 10 Commandments from Exodus 20. The episode affirms God's existence in reality and His accessibility through spoken revelation. The 10 Commandments are not the result of subsequent evolution through the ages. Within the ancient world, law was viewed as given through the divine rather than social construction. The Decalogue is given to explain the factor of grace. Biblical law comes within a framework of grace. The Decalogue was a compact originally intended for Israel. The premises of the Decalogue are present in prior revelation. The Decalogue's obligation is binding upon all aspect of one's life. The application of the Decalogue is to the conscious of every individual. The Bible is both a corporate document and speaks personally to each individual. The Decalogue was not intended to be courthouse regulation. The Commandments are individually addressed, acting as a searchlight for the soul. Socially, they are to bring into being a community. The 10 Commandments are essentially one command with several aspects. 12:00
