Torah

Modern day scriptures through Joseph Smith tell us that we still need to keep Torah.

D&C (LDS 84:57) (RLDS 83) (1835 4) (1844 4)
A And they shall remain under this CONDEMNATION until they REPENT
-B and REMEMBER the new [renewed] covenant, even the BOOK OF MORMON
-B and the FORMER COMMANDMENTS [Torah] which I [God] have given them,
A not only to say, BUT TO DO ACCORDING to that which I [Elohim] HAVE WRITTEN.

Exodus 24:12,15
12 And the Lord [YHWH] said unto Moses, Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I will give thee tables of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written; that thou mayest teach them.
15 And Moses went up into the mount, and a cloud covered the mount.

Exodus 31:18 And He [YHWH] gave unto Moses, when he had made an end of communing with him upon mount Sinai, two tables of testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God [Elohim].

Exodus 32:16 And the tables were the work of God [Elohim], and the writing was the writing of God [Elohim], graven upon the tables.

Deuteronomy 31:9,24-26
9 And Moses wrote this law, and delivered it unto the priests the sons of Levi, which bare the ark of the covenant of the Lord [YHWH], and unto all the elders of Israel.
24 And it came to pass, when Moses had made an end of writing the words of this law in a book, until they were finished, 25 That Moses commanded the Levites, which bare the ark of the covenant of the Lord, saying, 26 Take this book of the law, and put it in the side of the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God, that it may be there for a witness against thee.

In Scripture Study 2022-11-02 we go over tons of scriptures after 3 Nephi (LDS 11:1) (RLDS 5:1) which is after Yeshua’s death and resurrection that teach Torah is still valid.

Talk some about priestcraft. A little about church government. Alma 13 tells us those with the High Priesthood are to call repentance. How converts learn about the Torah. We are to continue to study the word of YHWH. Paul is hard to understand and kept Torah. Read and expounded many scriptures in the Book of Mormon after Yeshua’s visit after His death and resurrection showing Torah is still valid. Show a quote from Joseph Smith and from Lectures on Faith that states we can keep the law. Talked about the different stages of tithing and types. Talk about all things common. The way things are stated in the scriptures is to point us back to Yeshua and His plan. Dead relatives do not come visit use. Talk about LDS / Brighamite temple / Masonic curses. Enforcing Torah would solve many problems in society today. Galatians 5 is listing Torah commandments. What Moroni 7 lists as Charity are commandments found in Torah.

One thing that makes it confusing if we are to keep Torah today or not is that the majority of the Jews and Christians because that the Law of Moses and Torah are two phrases for the same thing. Mosiah (LDS 13:25-33) (RLDS 8:1-12) was the first passage that helped me see that the Law of Moses and Torah are actually two different things. Alma (LDS 34:10-14) (RLDS 16:210-215) and a quote from Joseph Smith came later. Then I saw it in Daniel 9 espcially verse 27 which is about the promised Messiah, contrary to belief of many and false prophecy interpretations. Then I started seeing it in Paul’s letters also such as Galatians 3:12-19. One thing that is helpful to understand Galatians 3:12-19 is knowing that Alma had Torah as taught in Alma (LDS 12:28-37) (RLDS 9:47-1) and I went over such in Scripture Study 2023-02-27. The knowledge that Law of Moses was a punishment given until Yeshua’s / Jesus’ death makes Colossians 2:14 easy to understand.

Mostly talked about how the Law of Moses [daily performances and ordinances] is pointing to Yeshua’s atonement.

Showing how Daniel 9 prophecies that Yeshua / Jesus put to end of the Law of Moses
Scripture Study 2023-05-18

Joseph Smith taught Law of Moses is different than Torah. Mighty and Strong One will restore All things which is Torah. Temple Institute is using an invalid alter according to Torah. Paul teaches about three different laws which causes much confusion. Oral law is arguments of rabbis. The Levites performed the Carnal law, not anyone else. Expounding 2 Nephi 25 related to Law of Moses. Repent sufficiently means repenting when one finds out they are doing something against YHWH’s Torah. JST makes different between Torah and Law of Moses more clear. Paul states if you are still doing Law of Moses you are denying Yeshua’s atonement. Book of Hebrews brings out how the Levities did the Law of Moses daily, and Yeshua the promised Messiah did His sacrifice once. Carnal Commandments deals with death. Expounding 3 Nephi (LDS 9:14-22) (RLDS 4:42-52). We need to be followers of Torah, but we start we need a teacher to teach us Torah.

Mosiah (LDS 13:25-33) (RLDS 8:1-12)
AA 25 And it came to pass that after Abinadi had made an end of these sayings that he said unto them:
AB Have ye taught this people that they should observe to do all these things for to keep these commandments?
-B 26 I say unto you, Nay; for if ye had, the Lord would not have caused me to come forth and to prophesy evil concerning this people.
–CA 27 And now ye have said that salvation cometh by the law of Moses [daily performances and ordinances].
–C-B I say unto you that it is EXPEDIENT that ye should keep the LAW OF MOSES [TYPES OF THINGS TO COME] AS YET [AT THIS TIME];
–C-B but I say unto you, that the time shall come when it shall NO MORE be EXPEDIENT to keep the LAW OF MOSES [DAILY PERFORMANCES AND ORDINANCES].
–CA 28 And moreover, I say unto you, that SALVATION DOES NOT COME BY THE LAW [TORAH] ALONE [Torah has a part in salvation] [Law of Moses is a dead work];
—DA and were it not for the ATONEMENT,
—DB which GOD [ELOHIM] HIMSELF SHALL MAKE [ATONEMENT] for the sins and iniquities of his people,
–CA that they must unavoidably perish, notwithstanding [not opposing] the LAW OF MOSES [TYPES OF THINGS TO COME].
–C-B 29 And now I say unto you that it was EXPEDIENT that there should be a LAW [OF MOSES] given to the children of Israel,
–C–CA yea, even a very STRICK LAW [OF MOSES, KEEP THEM IN REMEMBRANCE OF ELOHIM];
–C–C-B for they were a stiffnecked people,
–C–C-B quick to do iniquity,
–C–CA and SLOW TO REMEMBER THE LORD [YHWH] THEIR GOD [ELOHIM];
–C—D 30 Therefore there was a LAW [OF MOSES, TYPES OF THINGS TO COME] given them,
–C—D yea, a law [of Moses] of PERFORMANCES AND OF ORDINANCES,
–C–C a law [of Moses] which they were to observe STRICTLY from DAY TO DAY [Numbers 28:3] [DAILY],
–C-B to KEEP THEM IN REMEMBRANCE OF GOD [ELOHIM] and their duty towards him.
–CA 31 But behold, I say unto you, that all THESE THINGS [LAW OF MOSES] were TYES OF THINGS TO COME.
-BA 32 And now, did they understand the law [of Moses, TYPES OF THINGS TO COME]?
-B-B I say unto you, Nay,
-B–C they DID NOT ALL UNDERSTAND the LAW [OF MOSES, TYPES OF THINGS TO COME];
-B-B and this BECAUSE OF THE HARDNESS OF THEIR HEARTS;
-BA for they UNDERSTOOD NOT that there could not any man be SAVED EXCEPT it were through the REDEMPTION OF GOD [ELOHIM].
AA 33 For behold, did not Moses prophesy unto them concerning the coming of the Messiah, and that God [Elohim] should redeem His people?
AB Yea, and even all the prophets who have prophesied ever since the world began—have they not spoken more or less concerning these things?

Numbers 28:1-8
1 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, 2 Command the children of Israel, and say unto them,
AA My offering,
AB and my bread for my sacrifices
AC made by fire,
AD for a sweet savour unto me, shall ye observe to offer unto me in their due season.
-BA 3 And thou shalt say unto them, This is the offering made by fire which ye shall offer unto the Lord;
-B-B two lambs of the first year without spot DAY BY DAY [Mosiah (LDS 13:30) (RLDS 8:7), for a continual burnt offering.
-B-B 4 The one lamb shalt thou offer in the morning, and the other lamb shalt thou offer at even;
-BA 5 And a tenth part of an ephah of flour for a meat offering, mingled with the fourth part of an hin of beaten oil.
–C 6 It is a continual burnt offering,
—D which was ordained in mount Sinai for a sweet savour,
–C a sacrifice made by fire unto the Lord.
-BA 7 And the drink offering thereof shall be the fourth part of an hin
-BB for the one lamb:
-BA in the holy place shalt thou cause the strong wine to be poured unto the Lord for a drink offering.
-BB 8 And the other lamb shalt thou offer at even:
AA as the meat offering of the morning,
AB and as the drink offering thereof, thou shalt offer it,
AC a sacrifice made by fire,
AD of a sweet savour unto the Lord.

Alma (LDS 34:10-14) (RLDS 16:210-215)
AA 10 For it is expedient that there should be a GREAT AND LAST SACRIFICE;
A-B yea, not a sacrifice of man,
A–C neither of beast [burnt offering],
A–C neither of any manner of fowl [burnt offering];
A-B for it shall not be a human sacrifice;
AA but it must be an INFINITE AND ETERNAL sacrifice.
-BA 11 Now there is not any man that can sacrifice his own blood which will atone for the sins of another.
-B-B Now, if a man murdereth [when we sin we, we cause our own death]
-B–CA behold will our law, which is just,
-B–CB take the life of his brother?
-B–CA I say unto you, Nay.
-B–CB12 But the law requireth the life of him
-B-B who hath murdered;
-BA therefore there can be nothing which is short of an infinite atonement which will suffice for the sins of the world.
–C 13 Therefore, it is EXPEDIENT that there should be a GREAT AND LAST SACRIFICE,
-BA and then shall there be, or it is expedient there should be, a stop to the shedding of blood [law of Moses];
-B-B then shall the law of Moses [TYPES OF THINGS TO COME] be fulfilled;
-B–C yea, it shall be all fulfilled,
-B–C every jot and tittle [pointed to in the daily performances and ordinances],
-B-B and none shall have passed away [been omitted].
-BA 14 And behold, this is the whole meaning of the law [of Moses, daily performances and ordinances],
AA EVERY WHIT POINTING [TYPES] TO THAT GREAT AND LAST SACRIFICE [OF THINGS TO COME];
A-B and that GREAT AND LAST SACRIFICE
A-B will be the SON OF GOD [ELOHIM],
AA yea, INFINITE AND ETERNAL.

We frequently have mention made of the offering of sacrifice by the servants of the Most High in ancient days, PRIOR TO THE LAW OF MOSES [DAILY PERFORMANCES AND ORDINANCES], WHICH ORDINANCES WILL BE CONTINUED WHEN THE PRIESTHOOD IS RESTORED WITH ALL IT’S AUTHORITY [Joseph Smith did not restore everything put did got it started], POWER AND BLESSINGS.

IT IS NOT TO BE UNDERSTOOD THAT THE LAW OF MOSES [DAILY PERFORMANCES AND ORDINANCES] WILL BE ESTABLISHED AGAIN with all its rites and variety of ceremonies; this has never been spoken of by the prophets; BUT THOSE THINGS WHICH EXISTED PRIOR TO MOSES’ DAY, namely, SACRIFICE, WILL BE CONTINUED.

Daniel 9:20-27
AA 20 And whiles I [Daniel] was speaking, and praying,
AB and confessing my [Daniel’s] SIN [WAS RECONCILIED] and the SIN of my PEOPLE ISRAEL [HAD CONSEQUENCES],
-BA and presenting my supplication before the Lord [YHWH] my God [Elohim]
-BB for the holy mountain [where YHWH gave the commandments],
-BC of my GOD [ELOHIM];
–CA 21 Yea, whiles I was speaking in prayer,
–CB even the Man Gabriel [Man of El],
–CC whom I had SEEN in the vision at the beginning [previously], being caused to FLY SWIFTLY,
—D TOUCHED [CAME TO] ME ABOUT THE TIME OF THE EVENING OBLATION [OFFERING] [Law of Moses] [same word in Exodus 29:41].
–CA 22 And He informed me, and talked with me, and said,
–CB O Daniel,
–CC I AM now come forth to give thee SKILL and UNDERSTANDING.
-BA 23 At the beginning of thy supplications
-BB the commandment came forth,
-BC and I AM come to shew thee [Daniel];
AA for thou art greatly beloved:
ABA therefore UNDERSTAND the MATTER [THEME] [RECONCILIATION AND CONSEQUENCE OF SIN],
ABB and CONSIDER the VISION [SEVENTY WEEKS].
A 24 Seventy weeks [vision and prophecy] are determined upon thy [Daniel’s] PEOPLE [ISRAELITES] and upon thy holy city [Jerusalem],
-BA to finish [annihilate] the transgression [sin] [of the first Adam],
-B-B and to make an end of [obstruct] [the effects of] sins,
-B–C and to make reconciliation [atonement] for iniquity [sin],
-B–C and to bring in everlasting righteousness [we are saved by Yeshua’s merits],
-B-B and to SEAL UP [MAKE SURE] [WITH BLOOD] [CORFIRM / PREVAIL] the vision and [which is] prophecy [covenant] [in the middle of the last week of the seventy weeks vision and prophecy],
-BA and to anoint [fill with the spirit] the most Holy [second Adam].
-BA 25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem
-B-B unto the Messiah the Prince [H5057] shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks:
-B–CA the street shall be built again [make ye His paths straight],
-B–CB and the wall [diligent] [separate from the world],
-B–CC even in troublous times [endure to the end].
-B—D 26 And after threescore and two weeks shall [the] Messiah be cut off [die] [and SHED HIS BLOOD], but not for Himself:
-B–CA and the PEOPLE [ISRAELITES] of the Prince [H5057] [the Messiah] that shall come [later] shall destroy [corrupt] the city [Jerusalem] and the sanctuary [temple]
-B–CB and the end thereof shall be with a flood [overflowing] [of Roman soldiers],
-B–CC and unto the end of the war [40 years after the death of the Messiah, part of the sign of Jonah] desolations [destruction] are determined.
-B-BA 27 And He [the Messiah] shall CONFIRM [PREVAIL] [SEAL UP / MAKE SURE] the covenant [vision and prophecy] with many [Israelites] for one week [last week of the seventy weeks for the Israelites]:
-B-BB and in the midst [middle] of the week He shall cause the [daily] sacrifice and the [burnt] oblation [offerings] [same word in Exodus 29:41] to cease [put an end to],
-BAA and for the overspreading of abominations [detested] [contemptable / sins of rejection] He shall make it [temple] desolate [destroyed] [40 years after the death of the Messiah, part of the sign of Jonah],
-BAB even until the consummation [complete] [of the temple, 40 years after the death of the Messiah, part of the sign of Jonah],
A and that [which is] determined shall be poured upon [and cause] desolate [destruction] [of temple 40 years after the Messiah’s death, part of the sign of Jonah].

Exodus 29:38-42
AA 38 Now this is that which thou shalt offer upon the altar;
AB two lambs of the first year day by day continually.
-BA 39 The one lamb thou shalt offer in the morning;
-BB and the other lamb thou shalt offer at even:
–CA 40 And with the one lamb a tenth deal of flour mingled with the fourth part of an hin of beaten oil;
–CB and the fourth part of an hin of wine for a drink offering.
—D 41 And the other lamb thou shalt offer at even,
–CA and shalt do thereto according to the meat offering of the morning,
–CB and according to the drink offering thereof,
-B for a sweet savour, an offering made by fire unto the Lord.
AA 42 This shall be a continual burnt offering throughout your generations at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation before the Lord:
AB where I will meet you, to speak there unto thee.

JST Galatians 3:12-19
AA 12 And the law is not of faith:
AB but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.
-BA 13 Christ [the Messiah] hath redeemed us from the curse of the law,
-B-B being made a curse for us:
-BA for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:
–CA 14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus [Yeshua] Christ [the Messiah]; [70 weeks, especially the atonement]
–CB that they might receive the promise [Genesis 22:8] of the Spirit through faith.
—DA 15 Brethren, I speak after the manner of men;
—D-B Though it be but a man’s covenant,
—D-B yet when it be confirmed,
—DA no man disannulleth [set aside], or addeth thereto.
—DA 16 Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made.
—D-B He saith not, And to seeds, as of many;
—D-B but as of one, And to thy seed,
—DA which is Christ [the Messiah].
–CA 17 And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God [Elohim] in Christ [the Messiah] [Genesis 22:8],
–C-B the law [of Moses],
–C–C which was four hundred and thirty years after [because of disobedience],
–C-B cannot disannul [revoke],
–CA that it should make the promise [Genesis 22:8] of none effect.
-BA 18 For if the inheritance [possession] is of the law [of Moses],
-B-B then it [law of Moses] is no more of promise:
-BA but God gave it to Abraham by promise [Genesis 22:8].
AA 19 Wherefore then, the law [that which is assigned] [of Moses] was ADDED BECAUSE OF TRANSGRESSIONS,
A-B TILL THE SEED [YESHUA] SHOULD COME
A-B to whom the promise was made in the law given to Moses,
AA who [Yeshua] was ordained by the hand of angels to be a mediator of this first covenant, (the law.)

Alma (LDS 12:28-37) (RLDS 9:47-1)
AAA 28 And after God [Elohim] had appointed
AAB that these things should come unto man,
A-BA behold, then He saw that it was expedient
A-B-B that man should know concerning the things
A-B-B whereof he had appointed unto them;
A-BA 29 Therefore He sent angels to converse with them,
A–C who caused men to behold of His glory.
A—DA 30 And they began from that time forth to call on His name;
A—DB therefore God [Elohim] conversed with men,
A—-E and made known unto them the plan of redemption,
A—–FA which had been prepared from the foundation of the world;
A—–FB and this He made known unto them
A—–FC according to their faith and repentance and their holy works.
A——G 31 Wherefore, He gave commandments unto men,
A—–FA they having first transgressed the first commandments as to things which were temporal,
A—–FB and becoming as gods,
A—–FC knowing good from evil,
A—-E placing themselves in a state to act,
A—DA or being placed in a state to act according to their wills and pleasures,
A—DB whether to do evil or to do good—
A–C 32 Therefore God [Elohim] gave unto them commandments,
A-BA after having made known unto them the plan of redemption,
A-B-B that they should not do evil,
A-B–C the penalty thereof being a second [spiritual] death,
A-B—D which was an everlasting death
A-B–C as to things pertaining unto righteousness;
A-B-B for on such the plan of redemption could have no power,
A-BA for the works of justice could not be destroyed,
AA according to the supreme goodness of God [Elohim].
-BAA 33 But God [Elohim] did call on men,
-BAB in the name of his Son,
-BAC (this being the plan of redemption which was laid) saying:
-B-B If ye will repent,
-B–C and harden not your hearts,
-B-B then will I have mercy upon you,
-BA through mine Only Begotten Son;
-BA 34 Therefore, whosoever repenteth,
-B-B and hardeneth not his heart,
-B–C he shall have claim on mercy through mine Only Begotten Son,
-B—D unto a remission of his sins;
-B–C and these shall enter into my rest.
-B-B 35 And whosoever will harden his heart and will do iniquity,
-BA behold, I swear in my wrath that he shall not enter into my rest.
AAA36 And now, my brethren, behold I say unto you,
AAB that if ye will harden your hearts
AAC ye shall not enter into the rest of the Lord [YHWH];
A-BA therefore your iniquity provoketh Him
A-B-B that He sendeth down His wrath
A-B-B upon you as in the first provocation,
A-BA yea, according to His word in the last [second] provocation as well as the first [Garden],
A–C to the everlasting destruction of your souls;
A—DA therefore, according to His word,
A—DB unto the last [spiritual] death,
A—DC as well as the first [physical].
A—DA 37 And now, my brethren,
A—DB seeing we know these things,
A—DC and they are true,
A–C let us repent,
A-BA and harden not our hearts,
A-B-B that we provoke not the Lord [YHWH] our God [Elohim]
A-B-B to pull down His wrath upon us in
A-BA these His second commandments which He has given unto us;
AAA but let us enter into the rest of God [Elohim],
AAB which is prepared according to His word.

Genesis (KJV 22:1-19) (JST 22:1-23)
AAA 1 And it came to pass after these things,
AA-B that God [Elohim] did try Abraham,
AA-B and said unto him, Abraham:
AAA and Abraham said, Behold, here am I.
A-BA 2 And the LORD [YHWH] said, Take now thy son [flesh],
A-BB thine only Isaac [flesh],
A-BC whom thou lovest,
A–C and get thee into the land of Moriah;
A-B and offer him there for a burnt offering [law of Moses]
AA upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee.
-BAA 3 And Abraham rose up early in the morning,
-BAB and saddled his ass [donkey],
-B-BA and took two of his young men [prophets] with him,
-B-B-B and Isaac his son [flesh],
-B-B–C and clave the wood for the burnt offering [law of Moses],
-B-B-B and rose up,
-B-BA and went unto the place of which God [Elohim] had told him.
-B–CA 4 Then on the third day
-B–CB Abraham lifted up his eyes,
-B–CC and saw the place afar off.
-B-BA 5 And Abraham said unto his young men [prophets],
-B-B-B Abide you here with the ass [donkey];
-B-B-B and I and the lad [flesh] will go yonder and worship,
-B-BA and come to you again.
-BAA 6 And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering [law of Moses],
-BA-B and laid it upon his back;
-BA–C and he took the fire in his hand, [justification]
-BA–C and a knife, [sanctification]
-BA-B and Isaac his son [flesh];
-BAA and they went both of them together [modalism].
–CAA 7 And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father,
–CAB and said, My father:
–CAC and he said, Here am I, my son.
–C-B And he said, Behold the fire and the wood:
–C–C but where is the lamb for a burnt offering [law of Moses]?
–C—D 8 And Abraham [father] said, My son [flesh],
–C–C God [Elohim] will provide Himself a lamb
–C-B for a burnt offering [law of Moses]:
–CA so they went both of them together.
—DA 9 And they came to the place of
—DB which God [Elohim] had told him;
—-EA and Abraham built an altar there,
—-E-B and laid the wood in order,
—-E-B and bound Isaac his son [flesh],
—-EA and laid him on the altar upon the wood.
—–FA 10 And Abraham stretched forth his hand,
—–FB and took the knife to slay his son.
——GA 11 And the angel of the Lord [YHWH] called unto him out of heaven,
——GB and said, Abraham, Abraham:
——GC and Abraham said, Here am I.
—–FA 12 And the angel said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad,
—–FB neither do thou any thing unto him:
—-EA for now I know that thou fearest God [Elohim],
—-E-B seeing thou hast not withheld thy son [flesh],
—-EA thine only Isaac [flesh] from me.
—DA 13 And Abraham lifted up his eyes,
—DB and looked,
–CA and behold behind him a thicket,
–C-B there was a ram caught in it by his horns [power from keeping Torah]:
–C–C and Abraham [Father] went and took the ram [Lamb],
–C-B and offered him up for a burnt offering [law of Moses]
–CA in the stead of his son [followers].
-BA 14 And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah [YHWH]-jireh [to see]:
-B-B as it is said unto this day,
-BA In the mountain [Torah] of the LORD [YHWH] it shall be seen.
AAA 15 And the angel of the LORD [YHWH]
AAB called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time,
A-BA 16 And said, Thus saith the LORD [YHWH],
A-BB I have sworn by Myself,
A-BC that because thou hast done this thing,
A–CA and hast not withheld thy son,
A–CB thine only Isaac [flesh] from me:
A—D 17 That in blessing I will bless thee,
A—-E and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of heaven,
A—-E and as the sand which is upon the sea shore;
A—D and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies;
A–C 18 And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;
A-B because thou hast obeyed My voice.
AAA 19 So Abraham returned unto his young men [prophets],
AA-B and they rose up [awake and arise]
AA-B and went to Beer-sheba [well of seven] [Heaven];
AAA and Abraham dwelt at Beer-sheba [well of seven] [Heaven].

Mosiah (LDS 15:1-5) (RLDS 8:28-32)
AA 1 And now Abinadi said unto them: I would that ye should understand that God [Elohim]
AB Himself shall come down among the children of men,
AC and shall REDEEM His people.
-BA 2 And because He dwelleth in flesh he shall be called the Son of God [Elohim],
-BB and having subjected the flesh to the will of the Father,
-BC being the Father and the Son—
-BA 3 The Father, because He was conceived [seen] by the power of God [Elohim] [Torah];
-BB and the Son, because of the flesh;
-BC thus becoming the Father and Son—
–CA 4 And they are one God [Elohim],
–CB yea, the very Eternal Father [singular / modalism]
–CC of heaven and of earth.
-BA 5 And thus the flesh becoming subject to the Spirit,
-BB or the Son to the Father,
-BC being one God [Elohim],
AA suffereth temptation, and yieldeth not to the temptation,
AB but suffereth Himself to be mocked, and scourged,
AC and cast out, and disowned by His people.

Colossians 2:14
A Blotting out the handwriting [legal note] of [daily performances and] ordinances [law of Moses] that was against us [given because of transgression],
-B which was contrary [set over against] to us [as a punishment],
-B and took it out of the way [removed it],
A nailing it to His [Yeshua’s] cross [death];

Below are the 10 commandment as listed in scriptures ancient and modern. As I get time I will work on sub-pages one for each of the 10 commandments that shows how all the commandments in the Tanak / Old Testament, the New Testament, Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants are simply showing us how YHWH Elohim wants us to live that one commandment. When we analyze the history found in the first five books of the Bible, we will see as the Israelites broke a law, YHWH Elohim, as any good father would do, helped the Israelites understand the law they just broke more fully by expanding upon it and showing futher how He wants us to live it in this life.

Exodus 20:1-17
1 And God [Elohim] spake all these words, saying,
2 I am the Lord [YHWH] thy God [Elohim], which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. 3 Thou shalt have no other gods [elohims] before me.
4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: 5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord [YHWH] thy God [Elohim] am a jealous God [Elohim], visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; 6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
7 Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord [YHWH] thy God [Elohim] in vain; for the Lord [YHWH] will not hold him guiltless that taketh His name in vain.
8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: 10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord [YHWH] thy God [Elohim]: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: 11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord [YHWH] blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord [YHWH] thy God [Elohim] giveth thee.
13 Thou shalt not kill [murder].
14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.
15 Thou shalt not steal.
16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour’s.

Deuteronomy 5:4-21
4 The Lord [YHWH] talked with you face to face in the mount out of the midst of the fire, 5 (I stood between the Lord [YHWH] and you at that time, to shew you the word of the Lord [YHWH]: for ye were afraid by reason of the fire, and went not up into the mount;) saying,
6 I am the Lord [YHWH] thy God [Elohim], which brought thee out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage. 7 Thou shalt have none other gods [elohim] before me.
8 Thou shalt not make thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the waters beneath the earth: 9 Thou shalt not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them: for I the Lord [YHWH] thy God [Elohim] am a jealous God [Elohim], visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me, 10 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me and keep my commandments.
11 Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord [YHWH] thy God [Elohim] in vain: for the Lord [YHWH] will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
12 Keep the sabbath day to sanctify it, as the Lord [YHWH] thy God [Elohim] hath commanded thee. 13 Six days thou shalt labour, and do all thy work: 14 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord [YHWH] thy God [Elohim]: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates; that thy manservant and thy maidservant may rest as well as thou. 15 And remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and that the Lord [YHWH] thy God [Elohim] brought thee out thence through a mighty hand and by a stretched out arm: therefore the Lord [YHWH] thy God [Elohim] commanded thee to keep the sabbath day.
16 Honour thy father and thy mother, as the Lord [YHWH] thy God [Elohim] hath commanded thee; that thy days may be prolonged, and that it may go well with thee, in the land which the Lord [YHWH] thy God [Elohim] giveth thee.
17 Thou shalt not kill.
18 Neither shalt thou commit adultery.
19 Neither shalt thou steal.
20 Neither shalt thou bear false witness against thy neighbour.
21 Neither shalt thou desire thy neighbour’s wife, neither shalt thou covet thy neighbour’s house, his field, or his manservant, or his maidservant, his ox, or his ass, or any thing that is thy neighbour’s.

Mosiah (LDS 12:33-36, 13:11-24) (RLDS 7:94-97,111-124)
33 But now Abinadi said unto them: I know if ye keep the commandments of God [Elohim] ye shall be saved; yea, if ye keep the commandments which the Lord [YHWH] delivered unto Moses in the mount of Sinai, saying:
34 I am the Lord [YHWH] thy God [Elohim], who hath brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. 35 Thou shalt have no other god [elohim] before me.
36 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing in heaven above, or things which are in the earth beneath.
11 And now I read unto you the remainder of the commandments of God [Elohim], for I perceive that they are not written in your hearts; I perceive that ye have studied and taught iniquity the most part of your lives.
12 And now, ye remember that I said unto you: Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of things which are in heaven above, or which are in the earth beneath, or which are in the water under the earth. 13 And again: Thou shalt not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them; for I the Lord [YHWH] thy God [Elohim] am a jealous God [Elohim], visiting the iniquities of the fathers upon the children, unto the third and fourth generations of them that hate me; 14 And showing mercy unto thousands of them that love me and keep my commandments.
15 Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord [YHWH] thy God [Elohim] in vain; for the Lord [YHWH] will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
16 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. 17 Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work;
18 But the seventh day, the sabbath of the Lord thy God, thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy man-servant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates; 19 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is; wherefore the Lord [YHWH] blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
20 Honor thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord [YHWH] thy God [Elohim] giveth thee.
21 Thou shalt not kill.
22 Thou shalt not commit adultery.
Thou shalt not steal.
23 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.
24 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s wife, nor his man-servant, nor his maid-servant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor anything that is thy neighbor’s.

I belive the proper way to split the 10 commandments is two groups of 5 not a group of 4 and a group of 6. I talk about that some in Testimony and Blessings. I have also talked about how I believe the 5 wise virgins are those who are keeping the 5 commandments dealing with how we are to love YHWH Elohim in addition to the other 5, and the foolish virgins are those who are only keeping the commandments dealing with our neighbors in various Scripture Studies.
