On the tenth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me, ten lords a’leaping…
You’ve probably already guessed that the ten lords a’leaping can refer to the Ten Commandments that God gave through Moses, listed in Exodus 20:1-17 and Deuteronomy 5:1-22. God said:
-
You shall have no other gods before Me
-
You shall not make or worship any idol
-
You shall not take the name of God in vain
-
You shall honor the Sabbath day and keep it holy
-
You shall honor your father and mother
-
You shall not kill
-
You shall not commit adultery
-
You shall not steal
-
You shall not lie
-
You shall not covet
