It's not your fault. It's do to an incorrect(maybe liberal:) translation. Most know the commandment as thall shall not kill.

Shouldn't that be britches? :-) Go to Webster's online and look up these words:
(1) Breach.
(2) Breech.
Then do a Google search on "honored in the breach."
You'll eventually get it. I have faith in you.

And it's not "don't make an idol," it's don't make a representation of *anything*.

Reading the resistor color code,
It was close enough to the one I recalled. Not the same phraise I remember but it fit.

I always liked those charm bracelets that girls used to wear to Sunday School. Each charm had another commandment on it. You can't find those anymore....except on ebay.

Yes it was, but the modern day Sabbath is on Sunday.
Can you find biblical evidence of that? Since the idea of "original intent" is one which frames the US Constitution, I am often floored to know how many people think that Sunday is the Sabbath. Based upon the idea of "original intent" one must hear from the 'Framer' of the 10 Commandments in order to 'change' it.
