- Find more videos at WordOnFire.org. Although most of our parents's generation knew the Ten Commandments by heart, few Christians today can recite them. Yet a deep exploration of these commandments reveals a path to a flourishing moral life.
Father Barron, I am a catholic from Hong Kong. I just want to say thank you for all your hard works, which are tremendously helpful. May God bless you and your work.
Ohh.. Good luck my fellow Catholic.
CCP was on the move to tamper your faith
Keep up the faith. Someday communism will be no more and the persecutions of christians in china will be no more when the time comes.
@@alexanderaquino4289 Their local bishop serve the CCP !
Why did the Catholic Church remove the original 2nd commandment concerning graven images and then split the 10th commandment into 2 so that the total is still ten? God's Law is not to be tampered with. The penalty for doing this is condemnation.
@@anthonyciardi1 the Catholic Church, along with Lutherans, use the numbering scheme out forth by St. Augustine. They did not remove any commandments, because the commandments aren’t actually numbered in the Bible to begin with.
As someone struggling with my faith, I find your lectures refreshing. Thank you for your insight, and not leaving your intellect at the door when talking about Christianity and Scripture.
It is so refreshing to listen to wisdom in an age that has a dearth of it.
I look forward to every Word On Fire exposition from Father Barron. I don't know of anyone who is saying more of what needs to be said to this culture, this generation, than Father Barron in his unique ministry -- not because he affirms me in what I'm doing with my life. Quite the opposite. His prophetic ministry calls me out, exposes my sins. It doesn't feel good, necessarily. But he keeps me in touch with reality.
I also look forward to every Word On Fire exposition from Father Barron. God bless you! Father. Please pray for me.
Father Barron Thank you for your effort in sharing the word of God to us. Thank you for more elaboration and explanation about the Ten Commandments of God.
Bishop you have made so much difference to the world! Even if you are in US and I in Australia, i learn a lot from you.I pray for your good health, and thank God you are in our generation! God bless you!!!
Another excellent video by Fr. Barron. Also, excellent advice at the end. God Bless.
Perfect video for Lent. Made me examine myself and prepares me for confession. Thanks Father.
geez i gave up that nonsense years ago
Dear Fr Barron,
I have been following your video clips for some time now and I must say that The Ten Commandments clip is by far the most inspiring, informative and enlightening so far.
Thank you for reminding me as a Christian what I do right in my life and what I am weak in.
Thanks for this review of the Ten Commandments today.
Good explanations, Father Barron. GOD Bless!
Thank you Bishop and God bless you.
Thank you father 😇😇😇
Thank you father! God bless you!
Thanks Father Barron
Thank you for this.
Thank you Bishop Barron....another insightful and informative video. I have listened to most of your videos. God bless you more abundantly for your ministry.
A+ Father Barron.
Bishop Barron, "Honour Thy Mother and Father", where does this fit when we have been abused, horribly abused as a child and this has had lifelong affects on our adult lives. God Bless.
It says nothing about parental responsibility towards their children. It should be a two way street.
I like having a distinction between the 3 commandments loving God, and the 7 commandments loving neighbor.
Have always enjoyed your talks.I like the way you teach, not preach. Thanks, and God richly bless your ministry
Thanks Father.
All is all with God!
Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death (Romans 8:1-2).
Thanks for the great Video Father B!
God bless you! Fr. Please pray for me Fr. or anyone who reads this comment to do well in my upcoming Exams.
Thanks.
You got it. Good luck ☺
Thank you sir. God bless you!! :)
TheKevinError and you :-) just a suggestion: pray to St Thomas Aquinas for help with studies :-)
St. Joseph of Cuppertino is a great advocate for students - he helped me get my 3 boys to men through college! Look up his prayer, it is powerful!
Matt Zammit Maureen Kawka
Thank you both sooo much! God heard ur prayers and the Exams went well!!
God Bless u all. :D
The notion of coveting as desiring something or someone by virtue of their wider desirability is wholly accurate. Thank you for illuminating that. I believe it is a major ill, and major drive, within our society.
Useful video.
The principal in life. Or we can die without God, no no all is better with Him! 😇😇😇
Thank you so much for this explanation. I hope I can make these commandments my spiritual guide until Our Lord Almighty calls me home
The Breathe of the Souls! 😇😇😇👼🔥☄️🕊️💐
I love your material- I always find it thoughtful, and engaging.
I was wondering if you would be able to place references for additional or extended reading for the videos you post.
I'm sure I wouldn't be the only person who would find that useful.
I've never had memetic desires.
I've loved people genuinely
Bishop Barron although I really like your videos and all the beautiful insights of God I can’t help but also say that you must consider using smaller words so a simpleton like moi can understand on the first go. Found myself checking more than a few words I’ve never heard before. Not a book worm here. But I thank you had to turn on the closed captioning
Taking note of all those wonderful mind movies I mean books 📚 writing ✍️ down books I am gonna have to re listen 👂 I heared it didn’t listen well enough. Did not digest . Thank you padre
I like how you used the word "incarnate" in the middle of the third minute :)
Thanks to Catholic school, I have them memorized!
Particularly enjoyed this one. Sadly it seems many of the fundamentalist religions tend to be more versed on the Ten Commandments but in a stylized manner that is used to prop up their regimes. I do have a question, my wife is caught in the cycle of one of these sects and I am at a loss to find an effective way to “remove the scales from her eyes”. As priest who is dedicated to evangelism I would love ask if you have seen people in such a condition effectively reached and if so how?
1. I am your God, whom alone you shall worship.
2. Respect, and don't use me, or misrepresent me.
3. I gave you a day off, be grateful and enjoy it wisely.
4. Love and respect your family.
5. Don't choose to kill anyone, or hurt their spirit.
6. Love your spouse and respect your marriage.
7. Don't take what is not yours.
8. Don't lie about other people.
9. Don't envy another person's relationships.
10. Don't desire someone else's possessions.
Remember you can kill with words too, so keep watch on what you say🧐
Me gustaría mucho que pasaron los programas en español o con subtitulos ya que vi el programa de Catolicismo por EWTN y me pareció bueno. agradezco su atención. Consuelo. Bogotá Colombia.
"IF YOU LOVE ME, KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS" - John 14v15
Please watch "Enforced Sunday Worship Laws" by Pastor Cox
Thanks for this Father Barron. I'm wondering if you can post an examination of conscience based on this on your website? :)
Hi, Father. Thank you for your videos all these years. I have two quick questions.
1. Is Yahweh, Almighty God of the OT to be identified with The Most Holy Trinity, or only with God the Father? and
2. Did you ever talk to Fr. Benedict Groeschel?
Thank you!
Bishop Robert barron, please make a vedio on soul, body, spirit.
"Love your neighbour" means fellow men and women whether family or not. Is`nt it written "“If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them.
33And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do that.
34And
if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is
that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, expecting to be repaid in
full"
Exodus 20:1 And God spake all these words, saying,
2 I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
7 Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
9 Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lordblessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
13 Thou shalt not kill.
14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.
15 Thou shalt not steal.
16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.
18 And all the people saw the thunderings, and the lightnings, and the noise of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking: and when the people saw it, they removed, and stood afar off.
19 And they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear: but let not God speak with us, lest we die.
20 And Moses said unto the people, Fear not: for God is come to prove you, and that his fear may be before your faces, that ye sin not.
21 And the people stood afar off, and Moses drew near unto the thick darkness where God was.
22 And the Lord said unto Moses, Thus thou shalt say unto the children of Israel, Ye have seen that I have talked with you from heaven.
23 Ye shall not make with me gods of silver, neither shall ye make unto you gods of gold.

Thank you for this list of Scripture readings of the Commandments 😊
THANK YOU JESUS CHRIST !
If Desiring what other ppl desire is wrong, does it also mean that competition is wrong??
Dear Father Barron, a friend of mine has left the Catholic Church because of the third commandment. I’m sorry for him as I don’t believe God will punish us because we love God on Sunday Monday Tuesday etc
I love God everyday and try to go to Mass every week, whether Saturday or Sunday or Monday, because life sometimes doesn’t allow it possible to go every Sunday. I don’t believe God will not love us as much because we take the kids to school on Saturday or cooking meals. I find it not compatible with God’s love. Why do non Catholic churches believe this ? We love God as much as they do but they continue to despise the catholic church. Isn’t this what Jesus condemned ? Please pray for these souls Amen 🙏
Hi +Bishop Barron , thanks for the sharing. can i ask you a question regarding the sabbath? fundamentally the 3rd commandment is to keep holy on the sabbath (saturday), but we catholic are celebrating the lord's day (sunday). how can we interpret this in a theological perspective?
Check Dr Pitre Brant video, he explains it really well
who's the philospher you mentioned at the end?
All To true Bishop .. We will have to change this. Sounds Like we are all the Church of Ephesus in Revelations..
Do you happen to have computer programming experiance (2:50)?
This is insightful. Though I did want Aslan to come bounding in. In other words, if Jesus doesn't come in and save us from our inevitable failure to keep the core of all of these commandments, then this is just a Sunday school lesson.
We can't even keep the first commandment for a day, an hour. Let alone love our neighbour as ourself. The antidote to sin is not "try harder" to keep these commands. You know that doesn't work. It is only Jesus' death on the cross which secured our forgiveness from being covetous or idolatrous or dishonouring to our family etc. Repentance and the expulsion of the desire to do these sins by focusing on Christ's love and sacrifice is the only way to approach the law of God.
Galatians 3:23-24 But before faith came, we were kept in custody under the law, being shut up to the faith which was later to be revealed. Therefore the Law has become our tutor to lead us to Christ, so that we may be justified by faith.
Thank you for your videos, Father Barron. According to Girard's philosophy, do you believe the inverse is true? (i.e. because fewer and fewer people are wanting God, we as a society are wanting God less and less?)
+nevermind2886 Sounds plausible.
When I asked for the person who used my phone to buy things, I forgot completely that I did. I received two receipts that I did not get to open until I use that particular iPhone again. I was asked for comment for the two things I bought and I said that I didn't do that and I asked who did that. And by doing it without reflecting on who did it; I just sent it back with a question.All I asked was for the person who did that. A little while after I sent back those faces that came to me, I sent back the unhappy face and I asked the same question. Well, it turned out that indeed I bought two things for 150 each on separate occasions; however, now I remembered that those items were sent to me at the same time. I sent one to my first born daughter and I kept one for me. Now, now, the person that I bought those items from emailed me upset and asked me why did I sent those comments that she never used my information without my consent. And I just fall short to breath. I put her good standing name as a seller in jeopardy. I apologized and I begged for her pardon. But, what she wanted me to do is to find these emails and fix them. Why am I writing this? I did offend this person that I really love without remembering that we made three transactions because I bought from her the first item in person and the other two items over the phone. However, this iPhone that I used to communicate with her and to buy those items I gave it to Felix, the father of my children and I forgot all about it until yesterday. I just commit sin after sin without stopping first to realize that the Ten Commandments are broken every day by so many of us that it is sad that we don't pause for a minute before we judge anybody because before we know it, we the ones who are at fault. So, my point is that it is exceptionally important that we be reminded of those live given laws that our God had given to us. If we don't live by the law we die by it, because the law is so easy to break and hard to amend. Therefore, our Lord Jesus Christ had to come to Earth sent by his Father to teach us the way because he is the Way, to teach us to love because he is Love, to teach us patience because he is Patient, to teach us to forgive because he is God among us, one Father Son Holy Spirit. Amen.
I’m trying to make sense of all different interpretations of God’s Law, and I don’t understand why Bishop Barron left out the idolatry parts 😫. Can someone explain?
Actually the 5th Commandment translates from English to Hebrew (both have words for kill and murder today) as, “You shall not murder.”(ESV Exodus 20:13) not you shall not kill it’s only found in the King James Version with kill because kill was defined the same as murder in 1610 English.
Hey now you're a rockstar
M E M O R I Z E
Exodus 20:20
But i use to love going to church every morning no being a one legged crippled i watch service mostly all day long on tv youd think I d be sinless Come holy holy Spirit I'm patiently waiting In Jesus Holy Name!
Basically if somebody becomes jealous of somebody else in a sexual relationship, they aren't genuine feelings? Because I've gone through many crushes based on sudden jealousy.
We should fulfill our mass obligation every Sunday. This is harder for me than I ever expected.
Just a friendly reminder that there are other days of obligation besides Sunday, like Corpus Christi, Christmas, and some other that I don't know by heart...
Amen 🥰
Amen❤
@@dominadorlozano1482 it makes me understand the ten commandments very well.
@@zigmundarana2728 wow sanaol
Christopher Hitchens' video on the Ten Commandments is another great explanation on this topic. Well done
It’s a shame the church has closed mass for its members at this time. Makes it hard to keep the sabbath holy.
1. You shall have no other gods before me.
2. You shall not make for yourself an idol.
3. You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God.
4. Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy.
5. Honor your father and your mother.
6. You shall not murder.
7. You shall not commit adultery.
8. You shall not steal.
9. You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.
10. You shall not covet anything that belongs to your neighbor.
The Sabbath is between Friday evening to Saturday morning, is that not the period to be kept holy?
Not for Catholics since sabbath was changed by the church from 7th to 1st. Which I think is completely wrong
But didn't Jesus say I've came to fulfill the law?? What's the difference between getting rid of the law and fulfilling the law?
How do you eat a Big Mac
Where is the Commandment against idolatry? Seems like it was missing on a couple of the images.
It's the very first one. Listen again.
Theology class, anyone?
Shoutout to Mr wild 2nd period
The question for the modern person is this ...why should I worship God?
I know I have a life! What I don't KNOW.....is God a loving God?
There are errors in the enunciation of the commandments. Where is the commandment 'Thou shalt not make images to worship'? What's more, the true order of the commandments has been changed in today's scriptures, for the Sabbath used to be the tenth and last commandment, the fulfillment of all, the key to salvation.
Yup
B HOW DID THE LAW COVENANT BECOME "OBSOLETE"?
However, the Law covenant became in a sense "obsolete" when God announced by means of the prophet Jeremiah that there would be a new covenant. (Jer. 31:31-34; Heb. 8:13) In 33 C.E. the Law covenant was canceled on the basis of Christ's death on the torture stake (Col. 2:14), the new covenant replacing it.---Heb. 7:12; 9:15; Ac. 2:1-4.
Dear Father, just one question, I thought the commandment about the sabbath should be the fourth, why was it the third?
Arent the Catholic church changing the laws around?
Check it out it was Martin Luther who changed the Bible when he started the reformation as he didn't believe some books where necessary. I was reading the book of Esther in my Protestant bibke that my dad gave me... And realised half the book isn't there... It's heartbreaking. I wanted to read Esther's prayer, it wasnt there😮this is in the New International Version... The Catholic Church gave the world our first Bible, they have never changed it.
@@BlessYouAngel The 10 commandments are the same just different numbering.
Apparently there are two (maybe three?) sets of "10 commandments" in the Bible.
Why is that and why have we stuck with this particular set?
Peter because they all come out essentially the same
I love what you said about all of the Ten Commandments, and although you mentioned that you shouldn't worship statues and things the like, "thou shall not make unto thee any graven image" is actually the 2nd commandment solely. And the 9th and 10th for coveting is actually only one, not two commandments. I mean no disrespect, but do not understand why your listed Ten commandments is different than in the Bible.
There's two versions of them in the Bible, he referred to the later version that the Roman Rite commonly refers to and quite frankly is more suitable for modern society .
"Life belongs to God" - will synthetic man mad life also belong to God when it comes?
Lets keep the truth plz.
Mathew 23:9
Exodus 20:4
*THE IMMUTABLE LAW OF GOD*
*I* I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
*II* *Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth*
Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
*III* Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
*IV* Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.
Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:
But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:
For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
*V* Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.
*VI* Thou shalt not kill.
*VII* Thou shalt not commit adultery.
*VIII* Thou shalt not steal.
*IX* Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
*X* Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.

Is there a transcription for this
yes
That sounds like it falls under the sixth commandment to me, wouldn't you say, Mr. Beckett?
I am such a sinner 😢

Really why do Catholics only keep the commandments that favor them , read again what's the 2nd commandment?
9th commandment?
4th commandment?
Really ?
9th commandment : do not accuse falsely
Moses broke the commandments from Exodus 20 under the mountain. Then he went back to the mountain and made a completely different 10 commandments (Exodus 34)
Why has the 2nd commandment been dropped? Why has the 10th commandment now become 9 and 10?
Leigh Wiggin it has not been dropped. Bishop Barron showed the commandment with out the entire text. The graven images and idols is part of the first commandment. Read the entire text and research pre protestant meanings. Protestants changed the them in the 1500's.
The Torah contains the commandments and this pre-dates the Catholic church and actually, the Protestant/Orthodox reading of the commandments pre-dates the Catholic reading. St Augustine chose the Catholic version(400AD), Origen chose the Orthodox reading(200AD). So you might want to research pre-Catholic meanings.
The Protestants returned to an earlier version, they didn't re-order them.
Sure but there are more thou shall nots than 10. And why would God tell them later in Exodus to make images? I suppose it depends on ones particular theology. Also idol or graven image of something that one falsely perceives as a god is wrong and a sin.
Steven Chavez God commands not to make graven images for yourself. With the Ark, God is commanding it be built for him. So they're not connected. I just thought the Bishop glossed over the commandment.
Trying to think if there is anyone whose personal idolatry may be seeking popular adulation.
2 commandment is do not make yourself graven images and do not worship them
Why do Priests work on the Sabbath?
I’m probably the only baptist here searching for baptist music....
Sir, the second commanment is " do not practice idolatry" Exodus 20:4-6. Why are you leaving this out? Prove me wrong!! With scripture!!!
Im here because of homework.
I just wish the Catholic and Anglican Church would practice the true Sabbath
The Catholic Church keeps the The Lord’s day because it is the most important day of all if Jesus didn’t rise on Sunday then we would all still be in our sins and our faith would be vain as Paul says that’s why the Catholic Church keep Sunday because there’s no day that’s more important and the Sabbath was only for Israel according to Exodus 31:16-18 and it’s not for new testament Israel either according to Colossians 2:16-17 I hope you understand..
Saint Thomas Aquinas talks about the sabbath and why it’s a abolished you should really read his work and I hope you understand why you should keep the Lord‘s day and why the Sabbath is no longer meant to be kept.
God bless
I have trouble with the explanation of the Second Commandment. The word in Hebrew is 'carry', not take. That changes the meaning to something that makes sense. You cannot act in the name of God because you do not know what God wants. Note that such an interpretation puts the Popes who carried out crusades and murdered other Christians, Jews, and Muslims on the bad side of the ledger just as it does Imams who talk about killing innocents in the name of God or Calvinists who burned witches in the name of God. Dennis Prager does a better job of explaining the Commandments. I suggest that Bishop Barron take a look.
