3. Actually there were 613 commandments in the Torah? Which one of the below isn’t one of them? Rise in the presence of the aged, show respect for the elderly.

Anyone who attacks his father or his mother must be put to death. When you relieve yourself, go outside of camp, dig a hole and cover up your excrement.

6. Exodus 19:16-19 On the morning of the third day there was thunder and lightning, with a thick cloud over the mountain, and a very loud trumpet blast. Everyone in the camp trembled.

The smoke billowed up from it like smoke from a furnace, the whole mountain trembled violently, and the sound of the trumpet grew louder and louder. Then Moses spoke and the voice of God answered him.

10. Nahum 1:2-8 The Lord is a jealous and avenging God; the Lord takes vengeance and is filled with wrath. The Lord takes vengeance on his foes and maintains his wrath against his enemies. The Lord is slow to anger and great in power; the Lord will not leave the guilty unpunished. The mountains quake before him and the hills melt away. The earth trembles at his presence, the world and all who live in it. Who can withstand his indignation? Who can endure his fierce anger? His wrath is poured out like fire; the rocks are shattered before him. The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him,

11. 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10 This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven in blazing fire with his powerful angels.

The first humans betrayed God and sought what God provided from something, somewhere, someone else. God chose a people through Abraham, rescued them and revealed Himself and His ways to them so they could be blessed and demonstrate the perfect religion to the world.

15. But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; for it is written: "Be holy, because I am holy.“ 1 Peter 1:15-16
