The Leningrad Codex is the oldest complete manuscript of the
Hebrew Language Based Jewish Scriptures.
It was written in Cairo, Egypt on parchment and completed around the year 1009 C.E. The actual
manuscript is currently located in the great library in Leningrad, Russia, now known as St. Petersburg Imperial Library.
The Leningrad Codex manuscript is otherwise better–known as The Masoretic Text!
Are you aware that most modern Bibles, whether Christian or Jewish, claim to base their
Jewish Scriptures (what Christians call the 'Old Testament') on the ancient Leningrad Codex,
also known as The Masoretic Text (circa ~1008-1009 C.E.)?
However, not one of them exactly
adheres to the actual rendering as found in
Exodus 20:1-12 of the Leningrad Codex!
The Ten Commandments In Exodus 20:1–12
Christian Bibles use
17 verses to express The Ten Commandments and Jewish Bibles use 14 verses.
They typically break up the larger verse for the Sabbath into several verses and combine the three small verses,
"Thou Shalt Not Murder," "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery" and "Thou Shalt Not Steal"
into one single verse!
I believe that to be significantly important! In what I consider to be a "sublime rendering,"
The Leningrad Codex uses just 12 Hebrew verses for The Ten Commandments
in Exodus 20!
You May Ask, "Why Do I Think The Ten Commandments Are So Important?"
Yehovah wrote
on both sides of the two tablets of stone with His own "FINGER!" And, then He commanded
Moses to place those tablets into the Ark Of The Covenant, also known as the Ark of the Testimony!
The Ark of the Covenant was where Yehovah chose to appear before the children of Israel in the Mishkan
(Tabernacle In The Wilderness) and in Solomon's Temple.
I believe this is important enough for us
to also hold the Ten Commandments in High Esteem and to consider just what the ancient text actually says.
Moreover, I find it of significant importance that both Jewish and Christian Bibles CLAIM to source their Jewish
Scriptures in the Leningrad Codex, but absolutely none follows it in its verse separations! They all break
their versions up differently than the SOURCE TEXT! Shall We Ask, WHY?
This Book Gives The Definition
Of Each Hebrew Word In Exodus 20:1-12!
YOU CAN KNOW EXACTLY
WHAT EACH HEBREW WORD IN THE TEN COMMANDMENTS MEANS (and, in its natural context)!
If you are interested in knowing the truth and the sublime rendering of Exodus 20 in the
Leningrad Codex for the Ten Commandments, which is what Yehovah wrote on the two tablets
of stone and commanded Moses to place into the Ark of the Covenant, then check out this book,
The Real God Code: The Ten Commandments In The Leningrad Codex, by Robert M. Pill!
