According to Jewish tradition, when God spoke the 10 Commandments from Mt. Sinai they were heard also in the languages of all the other nations, so that no nation is without excuse from knowing the truth about the one true God.
For those of us from the South, what if we had been there? It might have sounded like this:
(1) Just one God
(2) Put nothin' before God
(3) Watch yer mouth
(4) Git yourself to Sundy meetin'
(5) Honor yer Ma & Pa
(6) No killin'
(7) No foolin' around with another fella's gal.
(8) Don't take what ain't yers
(9) No tellin' tales or gossipin'
(10) Don't be hankerin' for yer buddy's stuff
Supposedly this is brought to us by a middle Tennessee church that apparently doesn’t exist. I still think its cute, though I’m pretty sure that God never commanded “Sundy meetin’s.”
With as many Bible versions that are out there, some of them bordering on the weird, I’m surprised I’ve never seen a Redneck Bible. It would be a fun project, though….hmm…$$$$$$$.
