      Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s house.

      Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his cattle, nor anything that is thy neighbor’s.

      Those look like two different commandments to me.

      There’s another line break at the top…

      “I am the Lord, thy God, thou shalt have no other Gods before me.”

      But that’s also matter of debate… but then so is the whole list… and the order…

      The one everyone forgets:

      “You shall set up these stones, which I command you today, on Aargaareezem. (Tsedaka)”

      But hey, it’s not like they were carved in stone by God or something… Oh, wait…
