The journey into the Ten Commandments begins here in Exodus 20 as the SOVEREIGN, MORAL LAWGIVER demands exclusivity in worship. This is no small command as it sets the stage for all others. In many way, to love God as He demands assumes then obedience the rest of the Law. For to love the Lawgiver yields a love and obedience to the message of the Lawgiver. For the Israelites gathered at Mt. Sinai, this is a call to be holy and distinct from every other people. The Canaanites were entrenched in a pluralism of worship.
