In the sixth aliyah the Ten Commandments are given. G-d is revealed to the whole world. The Jewish people look to the east, west, north, south, up, and down, and SEE the revelation of G-d. As explained in the Zohar, there was no place from which G-d did not speak to them. At every divine utterance, their souls took flight, and G-d revived them with the dew with which He will revive the dead when Moshiach comes (may it happen speedily in our day).
The Ten Commandments are encapsulated in the first two commandments, and all 613 commandments are encapsulated in the Ten Commandments.
The Ten Commandments are:
- Believe in G-d
- Do not worship idols
- Do not use G-d's name in vain
- Remember Shabbos to keep it holy
- Honor your father and mother
- You shall not kill
- You shall not commit adultery
- You shall not steal
- You shall not be a false witness
- You shall not be jealous of your friend's possessions
It is a custom that we all stand while listening to the Ten Commandments being read.
