HOW MOSES GOT THE TEN COMMANDMENTS
God went to the Arabs and said,
‘I have Commandments for you that will make your lives better.’
The Arabs asked, ‘What are Commandments?’ And the Lord said, ‘They are rules for living.’
‘Can you give us an example?’
‘Thou shall not kill.’
‘Not kill?
We’re not interested.’
So He went to the Blacks and said, ‘I have Commandments.’
The Blacks wanted an example, and the Lord said, ‘honour thy Father and Mother.’
‘Father?
We don’t know who our fathers are. We’re not interested.’
Then He went to the Mexicans and said, ‘I have Commandments.’
The Mexicans also wanted an example,
And the Lord said ‘Thou shall not steal.’
‘Not steal? We’re not interested.’
Then He went to the French and said, ‘I have Commandments.’
The French too wanted an example and the Lord said, ‘Thou shall not commit adultery.’
‘Not commit adultery?
We’re not interested.’
Finally, He went to the Jews and said, ‘I have Commandments.’
‘Commandments?’ They said, ‘How much are they?’
‘They’re free.’
‘We’ll take 10.’

When Moses came down from the mountain, he addressed the crowds thus: ‘Folks, I have good news and bad news. The good news is, I got them down from 15 to 10. The bad news is, adultery’s still in.’
