When I count the imperatives in the 10 commandments (Ex 20)I̶ ̶c̶o̶u̶n̶t̶ ̶1̶1̶ I now count 12 (thanks @Soyeong) Turns out some traditions count the commandments differently, they all end off with 10 but 1 and 2 are the same commandments for some and 10 and 11 are expanded. Where others see 1 and 2 as separate and 10 and 11 condensed.
