They are part of what is known as "Wisdom Literature." Not commandments per se, they are still in our Bibles and the lessons therein should be diligently heeded. Psalms are Hebraic religious music, and Proverbs is collections of wise Hebraic sayings.

Braveheart: How do you find the 'Administration Panel' to start a new board? I would like a board on 'Poems' May 12, 2024 11:53:21 GMT -8

alon: Welcacces Bravheart. You cannot access the Admin panel. Post in Books or Thoughts May 13, 2024 7:03:51 GMT -8

Braveheart: Is this a bot that puts a a 'disapproval emoticon' on my comment? And what is it offended with, lol. Is it against the rules to put up 'cross' 'sacrifice' 'persecution' or 'death' ? I've put it up, taken it down, and still it doesn't go away. May 15, 2024 5:29:59 GMT -8

alon: Braveheart, you posted a teaching against the SoF. Please read the rules- that is not allowed. Still, I left it up so you can clarify and discuss. If you have a complaint you can read any admin by PM. May 21, 2024 16:03:51 GMT -8
