Translations:Is there a "two tables" division in the Ten Commandments?/19/en
From Theonomy Wiki
The Decalogue consists of two tables, of five commandments each. The first contains the duties to God (praecepta pietatis), the second the duties to man (praecepta probitatis). The first is strictly religious, the second moral. The fifth commandment belongs to the first table, since it enjoins reverence to parents as representing God's authority on earth. This view is now taken not only by Reformed, but also by many of the ablest Lutheran divines...[1]
