Jewish parents join suit challenging Louisiana law requiring Ten Commandments in schools

 https://www.timesofisrael.com/jewish-parents-join-suit-challenging-louisiana-law-requiring-ten-commandments-in-schools/

The text of the Ten Commandments mandated by the law is a Christian version and “does not match any version or translation found in the Jewish tradition.”

Jews and different Christian denominations do number the commandments differently. The version prescribed by the bill omits part of the first commandment in Judaism, the section of the first verse about God bringing the Israelites out of Egypt.
