| Summary: | The treatment of the ninth commandment against bearing false witness in the DC, for example, extends the principle beyond the original court setting of the commandment to apply it to a variety of circumstances involving false and misleading promises-that is, to fraud. Tracing the thread of this interpretation through other sections of the Torah and wisdom literature, both biblical and Deutero-canonical, leads to Mark 10:9, an enigmatic text in which Jesus (Mark?) employs the same techniques of (re)arrangement and extrapolation to make a significant claim concerning the family character of the kingdom of God. |
