It doesn't mean that the Law of Moses only consisted of ten commandments. For example, the book of Leviticus contains a long list of commands concerning all aspects of life and the worship of God.

The New Testament is a replacement of the Old Testament. In the New Testament, nine of the Ten Commandments are repeated. See: Ten Commandments. Moral laws — on murder, theft, honesty, adultery, etc. Social laws — on property, inheritance, marriage and divorce, Food laws — on what is clean and unclean, on cooking and storing food. Rabbinic Jews assert that Moses presented the Jewish religious laws to the Jewish people and that those laws do not apply to Gentiles including Christians , with the exception of the Seven Laws of Noah, which according to Rabbinic teachings apply to all people.

Some scholars propose a date between the 16th and 13th centuries bce because Exodus and Deuteronomy connect the Ten Commandments with Moses and the Sinai Covenant between Yahweh and Israel. According to Rabbinic Judaism, God transmitted the Torah to Moses in two parts: the written Torah which comprises the Biblical books of Genesis through Deuteronomy, and the Oral Torah which was relayed orally, from Moses to his successors, to their successors, and finally to the rabbis.

He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. This is the New Commandment of John —35 that the disciples should love one another as he himself had loved them.
