The commandments are specific to a people, a time and a place (The Israelites in the desert one year after escaping Egypt); these were meant to create order and laws and hold a people together. God is the linchpin for Israel.

According to Jesus, the 10 Commandments become the 2 most important Commandments: Love God with all that you are, Love Others.
