These are sometimes called the two tables of the law, which is a mistake. They are a single table of laws. There were two copies, each with 10 laws: one stone copy was for the Israelites, the other was God's copy. They were like copies of a contract; each party got one.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Ten Commandments uphold private property; this galls the Social Gospel crowd, which is why they talk endlessly about the prophets - who preached little on economics - while avoiding Exodus 20.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis book was originally titled, \u003cstrong\u003eThe Sinai Strategy: Economics and the Ten Commandments\u003c\/strong\u003e (1986).\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-----\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis series, \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eAn Economic Commentary on the Bible\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e, is published by \u003cstrong\u003eReconstructionist Radio\u003c\/strong\u003e, a producer and provider of Reformed (Postmillennial, Presuppositional, Covenantal, Calvinist, and Theonomic) Christian Reconstructionist podcasts, audiobooks, lectures, sermons, music, and other media.
