There are two ways to look at the Ten Commandments: The biblical story, and the meaning behind the story. The Commandments are a study of ourselves: the first five reflect the inner world; spiritual world; world of thought; consciousness; getting our thought correct. The second five refer to the outer world; objective side of life; our relationships with each other, how thought works, the external plane of life.
