The Ritual Decalogue is a list of ten commandments in the book of Exodus 34:10-26, identified in Biblical criticism as the Ten Commandments mentioned by the Bible. In this context, the traditional Ten Commandments are known as the "Ethical Decalogue". The Ritual Decalogue appears in the text at the point where the Ten Commandments are inscribed into the second set of stone tablets. Thus it seems that it is they, rather than the Ethical Decalogue, which are there identified as the Ten Commandments (Exodus 34:27-28).
