July 26, 2009: It Is All the Same – Michael Hidalgo

The sixth word deals with how we ought to view all human life. Once we recognize the starting point of all human relationships, we can grasp the beauty and value of life itself. This command heightens the value of human life. We are reminded of Jesus’ words in his teaching in Matthew when he equates anger with one’s brother with murder. The implications of the sanctity of all life are amazing and implicit in this command.
