    What’s funny is the decalogue is likely borrowed from what is commonly called the “ritual commandments” of Exodus 34, which are explicitly stated to be the 10 commandments in the Hebrew Bible (despite tradition calling the decalogue the 10 commandments) and includes such bangers as “sacrifice your firstborn son” and “in fact make lots of sacrifices to me”
