What is the preface to the ten commandments?

The preface to the ten commandments is contained in these words, I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.[1] Wherein God manifesteth his sovereignty, as being JEHOVAH, the eternal, immutable, and almighty God;[2] having his being in and of himself,[3] and giving being to all his words [4] and works:[5] and that he is a God in covenant, as with Israel of old, so with all his people;[6] who, as he brought them out of their bondage in Egypt, so he delivers us from our spiritual thraldom;[7] and that therefore we are bound to take him for our God alone, and to keep all his commandments.[8]

The Dark Side of the Moon

Don’t forget this evening’s total lunar eclipse, which will be seen all across Canada; that is, if it’s not cloudy. It starts at 8:42pm EST, so that’ll be 5:42pm PST, which is our local time.

 

It’ll still be light here when it starts, but it should be dark for the fifty most spectacular minutes in the middle of the three hour eclipse process. Somewhere around 7pm (10pm for you easterners), we can expect to see a red or orange moon that will slowly become more brown.

 

Plan to look heavenward tonight to see the show.
