There were commandments like that in Egypt. The 42 confessions. Not sure that they were new at all.

modath:
I believe the Igbos are 98% christians and should live according to biblical dictates. I don't know much but I know the bible preaches:

1.Love

2.Forgiveness

No matter how hurt they are by the ravages of the civil war, harbouring grudges and feeings of resentment will only do them more harm than good,you can hope to pick anything if your fists are tightly locked up.

plaetton:
Lol.
Kindly put here on display, any, just one so-called drawing made by any Historian who studied whatever fact and myth you are referring to.

In the words of Winston Churchill: "Never, never, never give up."

I'm aware of the intimidation that a lot of you might be facing as we head into the final stretch of this election campaign. I get it. I understand what you are going through because I also had to face it in the course of this campaign, if this serves as any consolation.

One thing I've learnt in life, however, is that the people who threaten you, knowingly or unknowingly, further validate your importance and underscore advantage. I would like to take this time to encourage you all not to respond to intimidation with violence but rather confront it with the collective power of your votes. Change is coming to Lagos. Tell your friends and families.

I hope you all had a pleasant Easter celebration.

ManMountain:
Oba is not regretting it, we yorubas stand with the oba.anyone planning to vote PDP is against the development of lagos and the lagoon will not be happy with such person.

macof:
This Moses probably never even existed cause there's no record from Egypt about such a man

But if he did, he only sought power - smart men like him would have known the best way to control a power is to blackmail them with God..make your own rules and tell them it's from a God living on top a mountain

plaetton:
Oh mi gosh!
Did you just Say "drawings".?

Drawings by whom?
Are you referring to the iPhone pictures taken at mount Sinai, with Moses holding the tablets?

I cant stop laughing.

Lol.. u knw quite little... i am not talking about english .. i am talking about the hebrew word. .

"You shall not murder" (Hebrew לֹא תִּרְצָח lo tirṣaḥ) (sometimes translated as You shall not kill (KJV) or Thou shalt not kill (LXX; οὐ φονεύσεις), is a moral imperative included as one of the Ten Commandments in the Torah, specifically Exodus 20:13 and Deuteronomy
5:17. Are u getting the picture.

The Hebrew Bible contains numerous prohibitions against unlawful killing, but also allows for justified killing in the context of warfare, capital punishment, and self-defense.

This brings us to the wword Retzach

The Hebrew verb רצח (r-ṣ-ḥ, also transliterated retzach, ratzákh, ratsakh etc.) is the word in the original text that is translated as "murder" or "kill", but it has a wider range of meanings, generally describing destructive activity, including meanings "to break, to dash to pieces" as well as "to slay, kill, murder". Are u getting the idea..

According to the Book of Numbers, killing anyone outside the context of war with a weapon, or in unarmed combat, is considered retzach, but if the killing is accidental, the accused must not leave the city, or he will be considered guilty of intentional murder.
The Bible never uses the word retzach in conjunction with war. Killing in war is it homicide..??

The act of slaying itself, regardless of questions of bloodguilt, is expressed with the verb n-k-h "to strike, smite, hit, beat, slay, kill".

This verb is used of both an Egyptian slaying an Israelite slave and of Moses slaying the Egyptian in retaliation in
Exodus 2:11-12. The Covenant Code and Holiness Code both prescribe the death penalty for people that commit n-k-h.

Another verb meaning "to kill, slay, murder, destroy, ruin" is h-r-g, used of Cain slaying Abel in Genesis 4:8. When Cain is driven into exile, complaining that "every one that findeth me shall slay me" in Genesis 4:14 , he again uses this verb (h-r-g).

The distinction becomes apparent... and has nothing to do with the "novelty" of the Lutheran interpretation as u posit.

shyna01:
the discussion here is not where he smashed 'em.
read exodus 24 Moses went up the mount with some people and if anyone from the camp came up with a matter that needed his attention then Joshua and hur were to go further up to him (moses). if I'm right this is in exodus 24.

Ifeann:
U are a a bit confused. .. its thou shall not murder..aka commit homicide. . I am a Christian and if u slap me i wont revenge, i will even turn the other cheek but if u come at me with a weapon i will not hesitate to end u were u stand..

Are u clear on the issue now..

shyna01:
I believe some elders followed him up the Mount and Joshua followed him very close to where the deed was done. even drawings of moses smashing the commandments shows Joshua by his side. can't remember the verse oh... will be tedious but I will search for it.
my 2 cents for now.

Majority won, majority elected the president on a mantra of change. Let's hope Buhari delivers change as majority expects. The country is back in the hands of the political oligarchs of 1980s.

Today, I have a different view point of Nigeria, I have learnt lessons from Jonathan's strides;

1. No matter how hard you try to love and develop your enemies, they will NEVER love you. Do not attempt to impress them.

2. Luck is NOT enough, be smart, be cunning, and be ILLEGAL if need be.

3. Do not wait for a second chance to develop your people, when given a chance, be selfish, develop your people, and do not wait for a second chance.

4. Majority is populous and may NOT be right, depending on their education level.

Lessons learnt from Buhari's success is;

Keep trying, crying, and some how, your last attempt might be the magic bullet.

Hahhahahahah. If I hear say gullible christians won't term Mbaka's stewpidity as persecution on the church and his person. His followers will increase.

Mbaka has been lying since the days of Chimaroke, since Ohakim. He even lied "ontop" the head of Union bank and almost made the bank go bankcrupt. Yet he still had followers.

Nothing will happen. Life goes on

segend:
I agree with your comment on APC PR team. Their campaign has been issue based and intelligent.
Highly disappointed in PDP PR team. No incumbent should be allowed to run this kind of campaign again.
Mostly personal attacks. The annoying part, there are things that gej did that he could campaign with,
But he chose to focus on buhari, now nobody can articulate his 1st term achievement.

Jaypea98:
OP, Forget not the Tireless ABIKE DABIRI .Interms of the degree of work rate, right from the APC Presidential Primaries your Top Man Rotimi Amaechi doesn't even come close.
