VERSE: Dt05-15a


RULE: There are only a dozen commandments where it mentions
the EXODUS from Egypt. There are 3 reasons for mentioning
the Exodus by a commandment


EXAMPLES
--------
(1) BE NICE TO SLAVES AND ORPHANS because God took you out
of Egypt where you were slaves and orphans (cf Dt15-15,Dt05-15
Dt16-12, Dt24-18)

(2) SANCTIFY YOURSELVES by avoiding ritual impurity; Offer
sacrifices (for) God who took you out of the ritual impurity of Egypt
(cf Lv22-33, Lv11-45, Nu15-41, Ex29-46).

(3) AVOID ANXIETY PRODUCING BUSINESS PRACTICES (For) I took you
out of Egypt (where such practices were a routine method of
destroying personalities) (Cf Lv25-38 (Prohibition of Interest),
Lv19-36 (Requirement of honest weights))



NOTES
-----
*1 See the main posting for many more details including the
one language difference in these 10 verses; or for an
explanation on why the Rambam only cited 2 of these 10
commandments.
