<span class="q">Q 100.</span> What special things are we to consider in the Ten Commandments?

<span class="q">A.</span> We are to consider, in the Ten Commandments, the preface, the substance of the commandments themselves, and several reasons annexed to some of them, the more to enforce them.[^fnref:wlc1]
