Mark 10:20

"You know the commandments: ‘Do not murder,’ ‘Do not commit adultery,’ ‘Do not steal,’ ‘Do not give false testimony,’ ‘Do not defraud,’ ‘Honor your father and mother.’”"

Key Reflection

These commandments, which encompass moral and social duties, serve as a foundation for ethical living. By affirming their knowledge, the individual acknowledges basic principles of righteousness, setting the stage for Jesus to reveal that true obedience goes beyond mere adherence to these laws.
