New Ten Commandments

(From book « Jesus » by Paul Johnson)

  • Uniqueness, each has a body and a soul
  • Universality, love thy neighbor – Lev 19:18
  • Equality in God’s eyes
  • Mercy, grace undeserved (Ecclésiast 2:11,18)
  • Love shown in listening and conforting
  • Balance (connected with Intelligence)
  • Intelligence, use eyes and wits (Luke 11:52)
  • Truth (John 14:6) watch nature
  • Power
  • Courage 😅

Versus from the scriptures or old testament which were redefined by Jesus:

Leviticus 19:18

Love thy neighbor.. neighbor was meant to be fellow jew.

However Jesus demonstrated that thy neighbor was anybody not just jewish people. There there is the parable of the Good Samaritan.
